Linear-time accurate lattice algorithms for tail conditional expectation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes novel lattice algorithms to compute tail conditional expectation of European calls and puts in linear time. We incorporate the technique of prefix-sum into tilting, trinomial, and extrapolation algorithms as well as some syntheses of these algorithms. Furthermore, we introduce fractional-step lattices to help reduce interpolation error in the extrapolation algorithms. We demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of these algorithms with numerical results. A key finding is that combining the techniques of tilting lattice, extrapolation, and fractional steps substantially increases speed and accuracy.

Strength of tail dependence based on conditional tail expectation
We use the conditional distribution and conditional expectation of one random variable given the other one being large to capture the strength of dependence in the tails of a bivariate random vector. We study the tail behavior of the boundary conditional cumulative distribution function (cdf) and two forms of conditional tail expectation (CTE) for various bivariate copula families. In general, ...
متن کاملComputing Second-Order-Accurate Solutions for Rational Expectation Models using Linear Solution Methods∗
This paper shows how to compute a second-order accurate solution of a non-linear rational expectation model using algorithms developed for the solution of linear rational expectation models. The result is a state-space representation for the realized values of the variables of the model. This state-space representation can easily be used to compute impulse responses as well as conditional and u...
متن کاملCORC Report TR-2008-02 Cash flow matching: a risk management approach
We propose a scenario based optimization framework for solving the cash flow matching problem where the time horizon of the liabilities is longer than the maturities of available bonds and the interest rates are uncertain. Standard interest rate models can be used for scenarios generation within this framework. The optimal portfolio is found by minimizing the cost at a specific level of shortfa...
متن کاملEfficient Simulation of a Random Knockout Tournament
We consider the problem of using simulation to efficiently estimate the win probabilities for participants in a general random knockout tournament. Both of our proposed estimators, one based on the notion of “observed survivals” and the other based on conditional expectation and post-stratification, are highly effective in terms of variance reduction when compared to the raw simulation estimato...
متن کاملOn the Concentration of Expectation and Approximate Inference in Layered Networks
We present an analysis of concentration-of-expectation phenomena in layered Bayesian networks that use generalized linear models as the local conditional probabilities. This framework encompasses a wide variety of probability distributions, including both discrete and continuous random variables. We utilize ideas from large deviation analysis and the delta method to devise and evaluate a class ...
