In this work, we adapt a Monte Carlo algorithm introduced by Broadie and Glasserman in 1997 to price a π-option. This method is based on the simulated price tree that comes from discretization and replication of possible trajectories of the underlying asset's price. As a result, this algorithm...

We present a computationally tractable method for simulating arbitrage free implied volatility surfaces. We illustrate how our method may be combined with a factor model for the implied volatility surface to generate dynamic scenarios for arbitrage-free implied volatility surfaces. Our approach...

Chen and Shen (2003) argue that it is possible to improve the Least Squares Monte Carlo Method (LSMC) of Longstaff and Schwartz (2001) to value American options by removing the least squares regression module. This would make not only faster but also more accurate. We demonstrate, using a large...
