Constantinos Kardaras Valuation and parities for exchange options
نویسنده
چکیده
Valuation and parities for both European-style and American-style exchange options are presented in a general financial model allowing for jumps, the possibility of default, and “bubbles” in asset prices. The formulas are given via expectations of auxiliary probabilities using the change-of-numéraire technique. Extensive discussion is provided regarding the way that folklore results such as Merton’s no-early-exercise theorem and traditional parities have to be altered in this more versatile framework.

Valuation Equations for Stochastic Volatility Models
We analyze the valuation partial differential equation for European contingent claims in a general framework of stochastic volatility models where the diffusion coefficients may grow faster than linearly and degenerate on the boundaries of the state space. We allow for various types of model behavior: the volatility process in our model can potentially reach zero and either stay there or instan...
متن کاملStrict local martingale deflators and valuing American call-type options
We develop a new theory for pricing call type American options in complete markets which do not necessarily admit an equivalent local martingale measure. This resolve an open question proposed by Fernholz and Karatzas [Stochastic Portfolio Theory: A Survey, Handbook of Numerical Analysis, 15:89168, 2009].
متن کاملStochastic Discount Factors
The valuation process that economic agents undergo for investments with uncertain payoff typically depends on their statistical views on possible future outcomes, their attitudes toward risk, and, of course, the payoff structure itself. Yields vary across different investment opportunities and their interrelations are difficult to explain. For the same agent, a different discounting factor has ...
