Mellin transforms in option pricing theory were introduced by Panini and Srivastav (2004). In this contribution, we generalize their results to European power options. We derive Black-Scholes-Merton-like valuation formulas for European power put options using Mellin transforms. Thereafter, we...

We extend a framework based on Mellin transforms and show how to modify the approach to value American call options on dividend paying stocks. We present a new integral equation to determine the price of an American call option and its free boundary using modi ed Mellin transforms. We also show...

We are concerned with the valuation of European options in Heston's stochastic volatility model with correlation. Based on Mellin transforms we present new closed-form solutions for the price of European options and hedging parameters. In contrast to Fourier-based approaches where the...

This paper deals with the valuation of European and American put options in jump diffusion models. A new integral transform framework for solving the partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) inherent in pricing problems is proposed. In the case of European options the solution is a single...

Recent results for pricing American options based on Mellin transforms are used to derive several approximations for the critical stock price of a finite-living American option. We prove important theoretical properties of the derived approximations and compare our results to other approaches...
