Stochastic Volatility and Pricing Bias in the Swedish OMX-Index Call Option Market [PDF]
This paper investigates the pricing bias in the Swedish OMX-Index Option market and how a stochastic volatility affects European call option prices. The market is purely European and without dividends for the period studied. A CIR square-root process for

Option pricing: The empirical tests of the black-scholes pricing formula and the feed-forward network [PDF]
In this article we evaluate the pricing performance of the rather simple but revolutionary Black-Scholes model and one of the more complex techniques (neural networks) on the European-style S&P Index call and put options over the period of 1.6.2006 till ...

CALCULATION OF ASIAN OPTIONS FOR THE BLACK–SCHOLES MODEL [PDF]
Summary: The paper deals with one of fundamental problems of financial mathematics, namely, allocation of resources between financial assets to ensure sufficient payments. When constructing mathematical models of the dynamics of financial indicators, various classes of random processes with discrete and continuous time are used.

Parametric Pricing of Higher Order Moments in S&P500 Options. [PDF]
A general parametric framework is developed for pricing S&P500 options. Skewness and leptokurtosis in stock returns as well as time-varying volatility are priced.

Black-Scholes and Extended Black-Scholes Models: A Comparative Statistical Analysis
Much research has been done on options pricing. Black and Scholes [12] set the benchmark in 1973 with their model for arbitrage-free, risk-neutral options valuation. Arbitrage-free refers to a market environment where prices are such that trading opportunities with no risk do not exist and risk-neutral commodities earn a risk free interest rate.

An asymptotic expansion for a Black–Scholes type model
This paper derives the asymptotic expansion of the expected value of the European call option when the volatility of the underlying asset is not constant but, instead, is subject to small perturbations (in the sense of perturbation theory). A link between analyticity of the solution and Borel-summability is also established.
