Numerical methods are developed for pricing European and American options under Kou's jump-diffusion model which assumes the price of the underlying asset to behave like a ge...
We review the basic properties of American options and the difficulties of applying Monte Carlo valuation to American options. Recent progress on the Least Squares Monte Carlo (LS...
Monte Carlo simulation techniques that use function approximations have been successfully applied to approximately price multi-dimensional American options. However, for many pric...
