✦ Synopsis


This article investigates valuation bounds on barrier options under model uncertainty. This investigation enriches the literature on the model‐free valuation of these exotic options. It is found that with weak assumptions on underlying price processes, tight valuation bounds on barrier options can be sought from a set of European options. As a result, the numerical routine developed in this article can be reviewed as a new method for the evaluation of barrier options, which is independent of model assumptions.

We focus on the problem of decision-making in the face of uncertainty. The issue of the representation of uncertain information is considered and a number of different frameworks are described: possibilistic, probabilistic, belief structures, and graded possibilistic. We suggest methodologies for de

If the cost-of-carry relationship holds, then (A3) is consistent with the assumption that the spot price of the underlying commodity also follows a stochastic differential equation given by: where p = a -( ra), r = riskless interest rate, and 6 represents the dividend yield (or its analog) on the s
