Markets are modeled as a counterparty accepting at zero cost a set of cash flows that are closed under addition, scaling and contain the nonnegative cash flows. Formulas are then provided for bid and ask prices in terms of this marketed cone. Additionally closed forms are obtained when...

Efficient numerical methods for pricing American options using Heston's stochastic volatility model are proposed. Based on this model the price of a European option can be obtained by solving a two-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation. For an American option the early exercise...

This paper discusses the exact simulation of the stock price process underlying the 3/2 model. Using a result derived by Craddock and Lennox using Lie Symmetry Analysis, we adapt the Broadie-Kaya algorithm for the simulation of affine processes to the 3/2 model. We also discuss variance...
