The European Enlightenment was a state of being, a personal stance, and an orientation to the world. Ways of probing experience and knowledge in the novel and in the visual arts were interleaved with methods of experimentation in science and philosophy. This book's fresh perspective considers the novel as an art but also as a force in thinking.

Advanced methods combining backward recurrence algorithms for computing of option rewards and general results on convergence of stochastic space skeleton and tree approximations for option rewards are applied to a variety of models of multivariate modulated Markov price processes. The principal novelty of presented results is based on consideration of multivariate modulated Markov price processes and general pay-off functions, which can depend not only on price but also an additional stochastic modulating index component, and use of minimal conditions of smoothness for transition probabilities and pay-off functions, compactness conditions for log-price processes and rate of growth conditions for pay-off functions. The volume presents results on structural studies of optimal stopping domains, Monte Carlo based approximation reward algorithms, and convergence of American-type options for autoregressive and continuous time models, as well as results of the corresponding experimental studies.De Gruyter studies in mathematics ;Volume 57.Options (Finance)Mathematical modelsStochastic approximationBusiness mathematicsAmerican option, Optimal stopping, Convergence of rewards, Markov chain, Approximation algorithm.Options (Finance)Mathematical models.Stochastic approximation.Business mathematics.332.6453Silvestrov Dmitrii S.740587MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788816603321American-type options1468593UNINA
