Pricing Options in Jump Diffusion Models Using Mellin Transforms
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is concerned with the valuation of options in jump diffusion models. The partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) inherent in the pricing problem is solved by using the Mellin integral transform. The solution is a single integral expression independent of the distribution of the jump size. We also derive analytical expressions for the Greeks. The results are implemented and compared to other approaches.

Jump-Diffusion Models for Asset Pricing in Financial Engineering
In this survey we shall focus on the following issues related to jump-diffusion models for asset pricing in financial engineering. (1) The controversy over tailweight of distributions. (2) Identifying a risk-neutral pricing measure by using the rational expectations equilibrium. (3) Using Laplace transforms to pricing options, including European call/put options, path-dependent options, such as...
متن کاملPricing of Commodity Futures Contract by Using of Spot Price Jump-Diffusion Process
Futures contract is one of the most important derivatives that is used in financial markets in all over the world to buy or sell an asset or commodity in the future. Pricing of this tool depends on expected price of asset or commodity at the maturity date. According to this, theoretical futures pricing models try to find this expected price in order to use in the futures contract. So in this ar...
متن کاملOption Pricing on Commodity Prices Using Jump Diffusion Models
In this paper, we aim at developing a model for option pricing to reduce the risks associated with Ethiopian commodity prices fluctuations. We used the daily closed Unwashed Lekempti grade 5 (ULK5) coffee and Whitish Wollega Sesame Seed Grade3 (WWSS3) prices obtained from Ethiopia commodity exchange (ECX) market to analyse the prices fluctuations.The natures of log-returns of the prices exhibit a...
متن کاملOccupation Times of Jump-Diffusion Processes with Double Exponential Jumps and the Pricing of Options
In this paper, we provide Laplace transform-based analytical solutions to pricing problems of various occupation-time-related derivatives such as step options, corridor options, and quantile options under Kou’s double exponential jump diffusion model. These transforms can be inverted numerically via the Euler Laplace inversion algorithm, and the numerical results illustrate that our pricing met...
متن کاملOption Pricing Under a Mixed-Exponential Jump Diffusion Model
This paper aims at extending the analytical tractability of the Black-Scholes model to alternative models with arbitrary jump size distributions. More precisely, we propose a jump diffusion model for asset prices whose jump sizes have a mixed-exponential distribution, which is a weighted average of exponential distributions but with possibly negative weights. The new model extends existing mode...
