We study several approximations for the LIBOR market models presented in Brace, Gatarek, Musiela (1997), Jamshidian (1997) and Schoenmakers, Coffey (1999). Special attention is payed to log-normal approximations and their simulation by using direct simulation methods for log-normal random...

In this paper we develop several regression algorithms for solving general stochastic optimal control problems via Monte Carlo. This type of algorithms is particularly useful for problems with a highdimensional state space and complex dependence structure of the underlying Markov process with...

In this paper we propose a Libor model with a high-dimensional specially structured system of driving CIR volatility processes. A stable calibration prodecure which takes into account a given local correlation structure is presented. The calibration algorithm is FFT based, so fast and easy to...
