We developed a variance reduction method of Monte Carlo simulations as well as an approximation formula based on an asymptotic expansion approach for pricing bond options and swaptions in HJM framework. As a numerical example we applied the technique to a realistic two-factor model and confirmed...

This paper describes an asymptotic expansion approach to numerical problems on valuation of financial assets and securities.

This paper derives a new semi closed-form approximation formula for pricing an upand- out barrier option under a certain type of stochastic volatility model including SABR model by applying a rigorous asymptotic expansion method developed by Kato, Takahashi and Yamada [1]. We also demonstrate...

In this work, we have presented a simple analytical approximation scheme for generic non-linear FBSDEs. By treating the interested system as the linear decoupled FBSDE perturbed with non-linear generator and feedback terms, we have shown that it is possible to carry out a recursive approximation...

This paper derives asymptotic expansion formulas for option prices and implied volatilities as well as the density of the underlying asset price in multi-dimensional stochastic volatility models. In particular, the integration-byparts formula in Malliavin calculus and the push-down of Malliavin...

This note presents an extension of a general computational scheme of an asymptotic expansion proposed by our previous works([47], [41], [42]). In particular, through change of variable technique as well as the various ways of setting perturbation parameters in an expansion, we provide exibility...

This paper proposes a new closed-form approximation scheme for the forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs). In particular, we obtain an error estimate for the scheme applying an asymptotic expansion in Malliavin calculus for the forward SDEs combined with the Picard iteration...

　　 The mean-variance hedging (MVH) problem is studied in a partially observable market where the drift processes can only be inferred through the observation of asset or index processes. Although most of the literatures treat the MVH problem by the duality method, here we study a...

This paper presents a new approximation formula for pricing swaptions and caps/floors under the LIBOR market model of interest rates (LMM) with the local and affine-type stochastic volatility. In particular, two approximation methods are applied in pricing, one of which is so called...

This paper proposes a new hedging scheme of European derivatives under uncertain volatility environments, in which a weighted variance swap called the polynomial variance swap is added to the Black-Scholes delta hedging for managing exposure to volatility risk. In general, under these...
