Wavelet Galerkin Pricing of American Options on Lévy Driven Assets
نویسندگان
چکیده
The price of an American style contract on assets driven by Lévy processes with infinite jump activity is expressed as solution of a parabolic variational integro-differential inequality (PIDI). A Galerkin discretization in logarithmic price using a wavelet basis is presented with compression of the moment matrix of the jump part of the price process’ Dynkin operator. An iterative solver with wavelet preconditioning for the resulting large matrix inequality problems is presented and its efficiency is demonstrated by numerical experiments.

Fast Deterministic Pricing of Options on Lévy Driven Assets
Arbitrage-free prices u of European contracts on risky assets whose log-returns are modelled by Lévy processes satisfy a parabolic partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) ∂tu +A[u] = 0. This PIDE is localized to bounded domains and the error due to this localization is estimated. The localized PIDE is discretized by the θ-scheme in time and a wavelet Galerkin method with N degrees of freed...
متن کاملMemory-reduction Method for Pricing American-style Options under Exponential Lévy Processes
This paper concerns the Monte Carlo method in pricing American-style options under the general class of exponential Lévy models. Traditionally, one must store all the intermediate asset prices so that they can be used for the backward pricing in the least squares algorithm. Therefore the storage requirement grows like O(mn), where m is the number of time steps and n is the number of simulated p...
متن کاملVariational Solutions of the Pricing Pides for European Options in Lévy Models
One of the fundamental problems in financial mathematics is to develop efficient algorithms for pricing options in advanced models such as those driven by Lévy processes. Essentially there are three approaches in use. These are Monte Carlo, Fourier transform and PIDE based methods. We focus our attention here on the latter. There is a large arsenal of numerical methods for efficiently solving p...
متن کاملOption Pricing with Regime Switching Lévy Processes Using Fourier Space Time Stepping
Although jump-diffusion and Lévy models have been widely used in industry, the resulting pricing partial-integro differential equations poses various difficulties for valuation. Diverse finite-difference schemes for solving the problem have been introduced in the literature. Invariably, the integral and diffusive terms are treated asymmetrically, large jumps are truncated and the methods are di...
متن کاملEfficient pricing of swing options in Lévy-driven models
We consider the problem of pricing swing options with multiple exercise rights in Lévy-driven models. We propose an efficient Wiener-Hopf factorisation method that solves multiple parabolic partial integro-differential equations associated with the pricing problem. We compare the proposed method with a finite difference algorithm. Both proposed deterministic methods are related to the dynamic p...
