Evaluating approximations to the optimal exercise boundary for American options

R Mallier - Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
We consider series solutions for the location of the optimal exercise boundary of an
American option close to expiry. By using Monte Carlo methods, we compute the expected …

Exercisability randomization of the American option

G Leduc - Stochastic analysis and applications, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
The valuation of American options is an optimal stopping time problem which typically leads
to a free boundary problem. We introduce here the randomization of the exercisability of the …

A brief review of the homotopy analysis method

L Shijun, LIU Zeng - 力学进展, 2019 - lxjz.cstam.org.cn
