Here we develop methods for e±cient pricing multidimensional discrete-time American and Bermudan options by using regression based algorithms together with a new approach towards constructing upper bounds for the price of the option...

The calibration of option pricing models leads to the minimization of an error functional. We show that its usual specification as a root mean squared error implies fluctuating exotics prices and possibly wrong prices...

State price density (SPD) contains important information concerning market expectations. In existing literature, a constrained estimator of the SPD is found by nonlinear least squares in a suitable Sobolev space...

We present a closed form solution to the perpetual American double barrier call option problem in a model driven by a Brownian motion and a compound Poissonprocess with exponential jumps. The method of proof is based on reducing the initialirregular optimal stopping problem to an...
