Options on baskets (linear combinations) of assets are notoriously challenging to price using even the simplest log-normal continuous-time stochastic models for the individual assets. The paper [5] gives a closed form approximation formula…
Spread options are a fundamental class of derivative contract written on multiple assets, and are widely used in a range of financial markets. There is a long history of approximation methods for computing such products, but as yet there is…
In the papers Carmona and Durrleman [7] and Bjerksund and Stensland [1], closed form approximations for spread call option prices were studied under the log normal models. In this paper, we give an alternative closed form formula for the…
In this paper we present a simple, but new, approximation methodology for pricing a call option in a Black \& Scholes market characterized by stochastic interest rates. The method, based on a straightforward Gaussian moment matching…
This paper examines the problem of pricing spread options under some models with jumps driven by Compound Poisson Processes and stochastic volatilities in the form of Cox-Ingersoll-Ross(CIR) processes. We derive the characteristic function…
In this paper we propose a closed-form approximation for the price of basket options under a multivariate Black-Scholes model, based on Taylor expansions and the calculation of mixed exponential-power moments of a Gaussian distribution. Our…
Analytical pricing formulas and Greeks are obtained for European and American basket put options using Mellin transforms. We assume assets are driven by geometric Brownian motion which exhibit correlation and pay a continuous dividend rate.…
Theoretical models applied to option pricing should take into account the empirical characteristics of the underlying financial time series. In this paper, we show how to price basket options when assets follow a shifted log-normal process…
We derive the price of a spread option based on two assets which follow a bivariate volatility modulated Volterra process dynamics. Such a price dynamics is particularly relevant in energy markets, modelling for example the spot price of…
We present the method of moments approach to pricing barrier-type options when the underlying is modelled by a general class of jump diffusions. By general principles the option prices are linked to certain infinite dimensional linear…
We focus on mean-variance hedging problem for models whose asset price follows an exponential additive process. Some representations of mean-variance hedging strategies for jump type models have already been suggested, but none is suited to…
We introduce a new method to price American options based on Chebyshev interpolation. In each step of a dynamic programming time-stepping we approximate the value function with Chebyshev polynomials. The key advantage of this approach is…
In this paper we consider the pricing of options on interest rates such as caplets and swaptions in the L\'evy Libor model developed by Eberlein and \"Ozkan (2005). This model is an extension to L\'evy driving processes of the classical…
We study the pricing of European-style options written on forward contracts within function-valued infinite-dimensional affine stochastic volatility models. The dynamics of the underlying forward price curves are modeled within the…
In this paper we use Bernstein and Chebyshev polynomials to approximate the price of some basket options under a bivariate Black-Scholes model. The method consists in expanding the price of a univariate related contract after conditioning…
We consider a method of lines (MOL) approach to determine prices of European and American exchange options when underlying asset prices are modelled with stochastic volatility and jump-diffusion dynamics. As the MOL, as with any other…
In this paper, we price European Call three different option pricing models, where the volatility is dynamically changing i.e. non constant. In stochastic volatility (SV) models for option pricing a closed form approximation technique is…
In this paper we present a new methodology for option pricing. The main idea consists to represent a generic probability distribution function (PDF) via a perturbative expansion around a given, simpler, PDF (typically a gaussian function)…
We present an option pricing formula for European options in a stochastic volatility model. In particular, the volatility process is defined using a fractional integral of a diffusion process and both the stock price and the volatility…
In this paper we derive tractable formulae for price sensitivities of two-dimensional spread options using Malliavin calculus. In particular, we consider spread options with asset dynamics driven by geometric Brownian motion and stochastic…
