Pricing Multidimensional American Options
A new explicit form is provided for the solution of optimal stopping problems involving a multidimensional geometric Brownian motion. A free-boundary value approach is adopted and the value function is obtained via fundamental solution methods. There are

American Parisian options [PDF]
In this article, we describe the various sorts of American Parisian options and propose valuation formulae. Although there is no closed-form valuation for these products in the non-perpetual case, we have been able to reformulate their price as a function of the exercise frontier.

Monte-Carlo methods for the pricing of American options: a semilinear BSDE point of view [PDF]
We extend the viscosity solution characterization proved in [5] for call/put American option prices to the case of a general payoff function in a multi-dimensional setting: the price satisfies a semilinear reaction/diffusion type equation. Based on this,

Perpetual cancellable American options with convertible features
The major characteristic of the cancellable American options is the existing writer’s right to cancel the contract prematurely paying some penalty amount. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce and examine a new subclass of such options for which

This paper examines the valuation of American knock-out and knock-in step options. The structures of the immediate exercise regions of the various contracts are identified. Typical properties of American vanilla calls, such as uniqueness of the optimal exercise boundary, upconnectedness of the exercise region or convexity of its t-section, are shown to

The parareal algorithm for American options [PDF]
This note provides a description of the parareal method for American contracts, a numerical section to assess its performance. The scalar case is investigated. Least-Square Monte Carlo (LSMC) and parareal time decomposition with two or more levels are used, leading to an efficient parallel implementation. It contains also a convergence argument for the
