Ziel dieses Beitrages ist es, die Zusammenhänge zwischen den Binomialmodellen der Operationsbewertung (Replikation bzw. Methode der risikoneutralen Wahrscheinlichkeiten) und dem Black/Scholes Modell aufzuzeigen und zu analysieren...

We show that a simple equilibrium model with uncertain growth is able to simultaneously generate patterns in implied volatility and risk aversion that are similar to the ones observed in the data. In addition, the model produces an implied pricing kernel that is increasing for particular levels...

In this article, we describe the various sorts of American Parisian options and propose valuation formulae. Although there is no closed-form valuation for these products in the non perpetual case, we have been able to reformulate their price as a function of the exercise frontier. In the...

This paper presents a new numerical method for pricing American call options when the volatility of the price of the underlying stock is stochastic. By exploiting a log-linear relationship of the optimal exercise boundary with respect to volatility changes, we derive an integral representation...

We develop a new completely affine model of the term structure of interest rates, in which the statevariables evolve as a matrix-valued process of stochastically correlated factors. This setting grants a newelement of flexibility in the simultaneous modeling of stochastic volatilities and...
