Closed form optimal exercise boundary of the American put option
We present three models of stock price with time-dependent interest rate, dividend yield, and volatility, respectively, that allow for explicit forms of the optimal exercise boundary of the finite maturity American put option. The optimal exercise boundary satisfies the nonlinear integral equation of Volterra type. We choose time-dependent parameters of the model so that the integral equation for the exercise boundary can be solved in the closed form. We also define the contracts of put type with time-dependent strike price that support the explicit optimal exercise boundary.

Analysis of the optimal exercise boundary of American put options with delivery lags
A make-your-mind-up option is an American derivative with delivery lags. We show that its put option can be decomposed as a European put and a new type of American-style derivative. The latter is an option for which the …
Hermite Polynomial-based Valuation of American Options with General Jump-Diffusion Processes
We present a new approximation scheme for the price and exercise policy of American options. The scheme is based on Hermite polynomial expansions of the transition density of the underlying asset dynamics and the early e…
On American VIX options under the generalized 3/2 and 1/2 models
In this paper, we extend the 3/2-model for VIX studied by Goard and Mazur (2013) and introduce the generalized 3/2 and 1/2 classes of volatility processes. Under these models, we study the pricing of European and America…
The American put with finite-time maturity and stochastic interest rate
In this paper we study pricing of American put options on the Black and Scholes market with a stochastic interest rate and finite-time maturity. We prove that the option value is a $C^1$ function of the initial time, int…
On the American swaption in the linear-rational framework
We study American swaptions in the linear-rational (LR) term structure model introduced in [5]. The American swaption pricing problem boils down to an optimal stopping problem that is analytically tractable. It reduces t…
