The pricing problem for American options in Markov-modulated Lévy models is solved. The early exercise boundaries and prices are calculated using a generalization of Carr's randomization procedure for regime-switching models. The pricing procedure is efficient even if the number of states is...

A general numerical method for pricing American options in regime switching jump diffusion models of stock dynamics with stochastic interest rates and/or volatility is developed. Time derivative and infinitesimal generator of the process for factors that determine the dynamics of the interest...

Recently, advantages of conformal deformations of the contours of integration in pricing formulas for European options have been demonstrated in the context of wide classes of L'evy models, the Heston model and other affine models. Similar deformations were used in one-factor L'evy models to...

We suggest new efficient integral representations and methods for evaluation of pdfs, cpds and quantiles of stable distributions. For wide regions in the parameter space, absolute errors of order 10 can be achieved in 0.005-0.1 msec (Matlab implementation), even when the index of the...
