Optimal Stopping Problem with Several Search Areas
The present paper deals with an optimal stopping problem with several possible search areas in which travel costs are assumed among the areas. In terms of the future availability of an offer once obtained and passed up, the following two cases are considered: (1) it becomes instant.ly and forever unavailable and (2) it remains forever available, called a no recall model and a recall model. resp...
متن کاملTwo Choice Optimal Stopping∗†
Let Xn, . . . , X1 be i.i.d. random variables with distribution function F . A statistician, knowing F , observes the X values sequentially and is given two chances to choose X’s using stopping rules. The statistician’s goal is to stop at a value of X as small as possible. Let V 2 n equal the expectation of the smaller of the two values chosen by the statistician when proceeding optimally. We o...
متن کاملThe Problem of Optimal Stopping
The problem of Optimal Stopping is of fundamental importance for sequential analysis, for the detection of signals in a background of noise, and also for pricing American-type options in the modern theory of finance. We shall review in this talk two relatively recent approaches to this problem: the deterministic or “pathwise” approach of Davis & Karatzas (1994), and the “integral representation...
متن کاملOptimal Pricing of Services with Switching Costs
Customer switching costs are an important factor in account-based services such as telecommu-nications, financial, insurance and brokerage services. In these businesses, existing customersincur significant costs if they switch to another provider. Such costs include physical config-uration and installation costs, contractual costs (e.g. termination fees) and cognitive costs ofle...
متن کاملAn Explicit Solution to an Optimal Stopping Problem with Regime Switching
We investigate an optimal stopping time problem which arises from pricing Russian options (i.e. perpetual look-back options) on a stock whose price fluctuations are modelled by adjoining a hidden Markov process to the classical Black–Scholes geometric Brownian motion model. By extending the technique of smooth fit to allow jump discontinuities, we obtain an explicit closed-form solution. It giv...
