This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early exercise opportunity of an American option makes it challenging to price and an array of approaches have been proposed in the vast literature on this topic. In The Numerical Solution of the American Option Pricing Problem, Carl Chiarella, Boda Kang and Gunter Meyer focus on two numerical approaches that have proved useful for finding all prices, hedge ratios and early exercise boundaries of an American option. One is a finite difference approach which is based on the numerical solution of the partial differential equations with the free boundary problem arising in American option pricing, including the method of lines, the component wise splitting and the finite difference with PSOR. The other approach is the integral transform approach which includes Fourier or Fourier Cosine transforms. Written in a concise and systematic manner, Chiarella, Kang and Meyer explain and demonstrate the advantages and limitations of each of them based on their and their co-workers'' experiences with these approaches over the years.

This book was released on 2005-07-18 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the unique perspective of partial differential equations (PDE), this self-contained book presents a systematic, advanced introduction to the Black-Scholes-Merton's option pricing theory.A unified approach is used to model various types of option pricing as PDE problems, to derive pricing formulas as their solutions, and to design efficient algorithms from the numerical calculation of PDEs. In particular, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of American option pricing is treated based on free boundary problems, and the implied volatility as an inverse problem is solved in the optimal control framework of parabolic equations.
Download or read book CEV Asymptotics of American Options written by Chi Seng Pun and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model is a practical approach to option pricing by fitting to the implied volatility smile. Its application to American-style derivatives, however, poses analytical and numerical challenges. By taking the Laplace-Carson transform (LCT) to the free-boundary value problem characterizing the option value function and the early exercise boundary, the analytical result involves confluent hyper-geometric functions. Thus, the numerical computation could be unstable and inefficient for certain set of parameter values. We solve this problem by an asymptotic approach to the American option pricing problem under the CEV model. We demonstrate the use of the proposed approach using perpetual and finite-time American puts.

This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an introduction to the mathematical, probabilistic and numerical methods used in the modern theory of option pricing. The text is designed for readers with a basic mathematical background. The first part contains a presentation of the arbitrage theory in discrete time. In the second part, the theories of stochastic calculus and parabolic PDEs are developed in detail and the classical arbitrage theory is analyzed in a Markovian setting by means of of PDEs techniques. After the martingale representation theorems and the Girsanov theory have been presented, arbitrage pricing is revisited in the martingale theory optics. General tools from PDE and martingale theories are also used in the analysis of volatility modeling. The book also contains an Introduction to Lévy processes and Malliavin calculus. The last part is devoted to the description of the numerical methods used in option pricing: Monte Carlo, binomial trees, finite differences and Fourier transform.

Download or read book American Option Pricing Under Stochastic Volatility written by Suchandan Guha and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: We developed two new numerical techniques to price American options when the underlying follows a bivariate process. The first technique exploits the semi-martingale representation of an American option price together with a coarse approximation of its early exercise surface that is based on an efficient implementation of the least-squares Monte Carlo method. The second technique exploits recent results in the efficient pricing of American options under constant volatility. Extensive numerical evaluations show these methods yield very accurate prices in a computationally efficient manner with the latter significantly faster than the former. However, the flexibility of the first method allows for its extension to a much larger class of optimal stopping problems than addressed in this paper.
Download or read book Pricing European Option Under a Modified Cev Model written by Wafaa Ibrahim Abu Zarqa and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A financial derivative is an instrument whose payoff is derived from the behavior of another underlying asset. One of the most commonly used derivatives is the option which gives the right to buy or to sell an underlying asset at a pre-specified price at (European) or at and before (American) an expiration date. Finding a fair price of the option is called the option pricing problem and it depends on the underlying asset prices during the period from the initial time to expiration date. Thus, a "good" model for the underlying asset price trajectory is needed. In this work, we are interested in European call options. We propose a new Constant Elasticity of Variance (CEV) model that covers the post-crash situations. First, we set up the modified CEV model for markets with high volatility. Then we find a numerical solution for the stochastic differential equation of the underlying price. The risk-neutral valuation method shows that the option price can be written as an expected value of the discounted underlying asset price at maturity. Then we use Monte Carlo methods for finance this to find a numerical solution for the price of a European option under a CEV model with high volatility.
Download or read book American Type Options written by Dmitrii S. Silvestrov and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book gives a systematical presentation of stochastic approximation methods for models of American-type options with general pay-off functions for discrete time Markov price processes. Advanced methods combining backward recurrence algorithms for computing of option rewards and general results on convergence of stochastic space skeleton and tree approximations for option rewards are applied to a variety of models of multivariate modulated Markov price processes. The principal novelty of presented results is based on consideration of multivariate modulated Markov price processes and general pay-off functions, which can depend not only on price but also an additional stochastic modulating index component, and use of minimal conditions of smoothness for transition probabilities and pay-off functions, compactness conditions for log-price processes and rate of growth conditions for pay-off functions. The book also contains an extended bibliography of works in the area. This book is the first volume of the comprehensive two volumes monograph. The second volume will present results on structural studies of optimal stopping domains, Monte Carlo based approximation reward algorithms, and convergence of American-type options for autoregressive and continuous time models, as well as results of the corresponding experimental studies.
