This article establishes efficient lattice algorithms for pricing American interest-sensitive claims in the Heath, Jarrow, and Morton paradigm under the assumption that the volatility structure of forward rates is restricted to a class that permits a Markovian representation of the term...

This article values option contracts based on the average price realized over a finite time horizon. Such contracts are of importance to traders who periodically transact in spot markets and who require protection from adverse moves in their total accrued costs realized over their trading...

Recent empirical studies have shown that GARCH models can be successfully used to describe option prices. Pricing such contracts requires knowledge of the risk neutral cumulative return distribution. Since the analytical forms of these distributions are generally unknown, computationally...
