Approximation for Option Prices under Uncertain Volatility
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the worst case scenario option prices as the volatility interval in an uncertain volatility model (UVM) degenerates to a single point, and then provide an approximation procedure for the worst case scenario prices in a UVM with small volatility interval. Numerical experiments show that this approximation procedure performs well even as the size of the volatility band is not so small.

Option Pricing under Heston and 3/2 Stochastic Volatility Models: an Approximation to the Fast Fourier Transform
The purpose of this thesis is to build a fast and accurate technique for computing option prices under stochastic volatility assumption. Currently, the methodology based on the fast Fourier transform is widely used to deal with that issue. Here we derive and suggest a second order approximation, which offers faster, transparent and deeper interpretations in comparison with existing the ones. Th...
متن کاملAn approximation formula for basket option prices under local stochastic volatility with jumps: An application to commodity markets
This paper develops a new approximation formula for pricing basket options in a localstochastic volatilitymodel with jumps. In particular, themodel admits local volatility functions and jump components in not only the underlying asset price processes, but also the volatility processes. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed formula is the first one which achieves an analytical approximation...
متن کاملA Control Variate Method to Evaluate Option Prices under Multi-factor Stochastic Volatility Models
We propose a control variate method with multiple controls to effectively reduce variances of Monte Carlo simulations for pricing European options under multifactor stochastic volatility models. Based on an application of Ito’s formula, the option price is decomposed by its discounted payoff and stochastic integrals with the appearance of gradients of the unknown option price with respect to st...
متن کاملImplied and Local Volatilities under Stochastic Volatility
For asset prices that follow stochastic-volatility diffusions, we use asymptotic methods to investigate the behavior of the local volatilities and Black–Scholes volatilities implied by option prices, and to relate this behavior to the parameters of the stochastic volatility process. We also give applications, including risk-premium-based explanations of the biases in some näıve pricing and hedg...
متن کاملA note on high-order short-time expansions for ATM option prices under the CGMY model
The short-time asymptotic behavior of option prices for a variety of models with jumps has received much attention in recent years. In the present work, a novel third-order approximation for ATM option prices under the CGMY Lévy model is derived, and extended to a model with an additional independent Brownian component. Our results shed new light on the connection between both the volatility of...
