Error estimates for discrete approximations of game options with multivariate diffusion asset prices

Abstract

We obtain error estimates for strong approximations of a diffusion with a diffusion matrix σ\sigma and a drift b by the discrete time process defined recursively X_N((n+1)/N) = X_N(n/N)+N^{1/2}\sigma(X_N(n/N))\xi(n+1)+N^{-1}b(XN(n/N)); where \xi(n); n\geq 1 are i.i.d. random vectors, and apply this in order to approximate the fair price of a game option with a diffusion asset price evolution by values of Dynkin's games with payoffs based on the above discrete time processes. This provides an effective tool for computations of fair prices of game options with path dependent payoffs in a multi asset market with diffusion evolution.
