In Longstaff and Schwartz (2001) a method for American option pricing using simulation and regression is suggested, and since then the method has rapidly gained importance. However, the idea of using regression and simulation for American option pricing was used at least as early as in Carriere...

This paper introduces a new numerical option pricing method by fast recursive projections. The projection step consists in representing the payoff and the state price density with a fast discrete transform based on a simple grid sampling. The recursive step consists in transmitting coefficients...

We present a quasi-analytical method for pricing multi-dimensional American options based on interpolating two arbitrage bounds, along the lines of Johnson (1983). Our method allows for the close examination of the interpolation parameter on a rigorous theoretical footing instead of empirical...
