In this paper the authors investigate the performance of the original and repeated Richardson extrapolation methods for American option pricing by implementing both the original and modified Geske–Johnson approximation formulae. A comprehensive numerical comparison includes alternative...

In this article we suggest a new method for solutions of stochastic integrals where the dynamics of the variables in integrand are given by some stochastic differential equation. We also propose numerical simulation of stochastic differential equations which is based on iterated integrals method...

We present an embarrassingly simple method for supervised learning of SABR model's European option price function based on lookup table or rote machine learning. Performance in time domain is comparable to generally used analytic approximations utilized in financial industry. However, unlike the...

In this article, the Universal Approximation Theorem of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) is applied to the SABR stochastic volatility model in order to construct highly efficient representations. Initially, the SABR approximation of Hagan et al. [2002] is considered, then a more accurate...

In this paper we consider the object oriented implementation of numerical algorithms where arithmetic operators (add, mult, exp) operate on objects with more complex structure (compared to floating point numbers). Examples are objects representing vectors instead of scalars, random variables,...

In this paper, we present a method for the accurate estimation of the derivative (aka. sensitivity) of expectations of functions involving an indicator function by combining a stochastic algorithmic differentiation and a regression.The method is an improvement of the approach presented in [Risk...

We propose a hybrid scheme for the simulation of stochastic Volterra equations. The scheme is a mix of the hybrid scheme for Brownian semistationary processes of Bennedsen et al. [Financ. Stoch., 21(4), 931-965, 2017] and then the multifactor approximations of Abi Jaber et al. [SIAM J. Finan....

In this paper, we recall actuarial and financial applications of sums of dependent random variables that follow a non-Gaussian mean-reverting process and contemplate distribution approximations. Our work complements previous related studies restricted to lognormal random variables; we revisit...

We find explicit formulas for the moments of the time integral of an exponential Lévy process. We consider both the cases of unconditional moments and conditional on the Lévy process level at the endpoints of the time interval. We propose a new methodology for reconstructing the unknown...
