We study the performance of alternative sampling methods for estimating multivariate normal probabilities through the GHK simulator. The sampling methods are randomized versions of some quasi-Monte Carlo samples (Halton, Niederreiter, Niederreiter-Xing sequences and lattice points) and some...

Many different constructions for (t,m,s)-nets and (t,s)-sequences are known today. Propagation rules as well as connections to other mathematical objects make it difficult to determine the best net available in a given setting.

This paper introduces a new method for pricing exotic options whose payoff functions depend on several stochastic indices and American options in multidimensional models. This method is based on two ideas. One is an application of the asymptotic expansion method for the law of a multidimensional...

Monte Carlo Methoden haben sich auf vielen Gebieten der Statistik und Ökonometrie als wertvolles Instrument erwiesen. Die übliche Verwendung von Pseudozufallszahlen führt dazu, daß der Zusammenhang zwischen einem allgemeinen Zufallsbegriff und der Anwendung in Monte Carlo Verfahren eher ein...
