## Abstract Black, F. and Scholes, M. (1973) assume a geometric Brownian motion for stock prices and therefore a normal distribution for stock returns. In this article a simple alternative model to Black and Scholes (1973) is presented by assuming a nonβzero lower bound on stock prices. The propose
In this paper we study the approximation of a sum of assets having marginal log-returns being multivariate normal inverse Gaussian distributed. We analyse the choice of a univariate exponential NIG distribution, where the approximation is based on matching of moments. Probability densities and Europ
We use the normalized preconditioned conjugate gradient method with Strang's circulant preconditioner to solve a nonsymmetric Toeplitz system A n x = b, which arises from the discretization of a partial integro-differential equation in option pricing. By using the definition of family of generating
## Abstract This study generalizes the nonparametric approach to option pricing of Stutzer, M. (1996) by demonstrating that the canonical valuation methodology introduced therein is one member of the CressieβRead family of divergence measures. Alhough the limiting distribution of the alternative me
In this paper, we are concerned with the time integration of differential equations modeling option pricing. In particular, we consider the Black-Scholes equation for American options. As an alternative to existing methods, we present exponential Rosenbrock integrators. These integrators require the
