Multi?step reflection principle and barrier options
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper examines a class of barrier options, multi-step which can have any finite number barriers level. We obtain general, explicit expression for option prices this type under the Black–Scholes model by deriving reflection principle, that is, boundary-crossing probability Brownian motion. Multi-step options are not only useful in they handle different levels and time steps but also approximate with arbitrary barriers. Moreover, be applied to pricing jump-diffusion models.

Optimal Reflection of Diffusions and Barrier Options Pricing under Constraints
We introduce a new class of control problems in which the gain depends on the solution of a stochastic differential equation reflected at the boundary of a bounded domain, along directions which are controlled by a bounded variation process. We provide a PDE characterization of the associated value function. This study is motivated by applications in mathematical finance where such equations ar...
متن کاملUnimodality and the Reflection Principle
We show how lattice paths and the reflection principle can be used to give easy proofs of unimodality results. In particular, we give a “one-line” combinatorial proof of the unimodality of the binomial coefficients. Other examples include products of binomial coefficients, polynomials related to the Legendre polynomials, and a result connected to a conjecture of Simion.
متن کاملDiscrete Barrier and Lookback Options
Discrete barrier and lookback options are among the most popular path-dependent options in markets. However, due to the discrete monitoring policy almost no analytical solutions are available for them. We shall focus on the following methods for discrete barrier and lookback option prices: (1) Broadie–Yamamoto method based on fast Gaussian transforms. (2) Feng–Linetsky method based on Hilbert t...
متن کاملCalibration of Barrier Options
A barrier option is a financial contract which is used to secure deals on volatile assets. The calibration of the volatility is an interesting mathematical and numerical problem which we analyze. In the process we will recall the modern tools of numerical analysis for fast solutions. We report also on the behavior of some optimization algorithms for this problem. Introduction A European option ...
متن کاملOn the Weak Reflection Principle
The Weak Reflection Principle for ω2, or WRP(ω2), is the statement that every stationary subset of Pω1 (ω2) reflects to an uncountable ordinal in ω2. The Reflection Principle for ω2, or RP(ω2), is the statement that every stationary subset of Pω1 (ω2) reflects to an ordinal in ω2 with cofinality ω1. Let κ be a κ+-supercompact cardinal and assume 2κ = κ+. Then there exists a forcing poset P whic...
