CVA and vulnerable options pricing by correlation expansions
We consider the problem of computing the Credit Value Adjustment ({CVA}) of a European option in presence of the Wrong Way Risk ({WWR}) in a default intensity setting. Namely we model the asset price evolution as solution to a linear equation that might depend on different stochastic factors and we provide an approximate evaluation of the option's price, by exploiting a correlation expansion approach, introduced in \cite{AS}. We compare the numerical performance of such a method with that recently proposed by Brigo et al. (\cite{BR18}, \cite{BRH18}) in the case of a call option driven by a GBM correlated with the CIR default intensity. We additionally report some numerical evaluations obtained by other methods.

More stochastic expansions for the pricing of vanilla options with cash dividends
There is no exact closed form formula for pricing of European options with discrete cash dividends under the model where the underlying asset price follows a piecewise lognormal process with jumps at dividend ex-dates. T…
More Robust Pricing of European Options Based on Fourier Cosine Series Expansions
We present an alternative formula to price European options through cosine series expansions, under models with a known characteristic function such as the Heston stochastic volatility model. It is more robust across str…
Analytical Path-Integral Pricing of Moving-Barrier Options under non-Gaussian Distributions
In this work we present an analytical model, based on the path-integral formalism of Statistical Mechanics, for pricing options using first-passage time problems involving both fixed and deterministically moving absorbin…
Asian Basket Spread Options: A New Approximation Based on Stochastic Taylor Expansions
We present closed analytical approximations for the pricing of Asian basket spread options under the Black-Scholes model. The formulae are obtained by using a stochastic Taylor expansion around a log-normal proxy model a…
Numerical IntegrationAnalytic techniques for option pricing under a hyperexponential L\'{e}vy model
We develop series expansions in powers of $q^{-1}$ and $q^{-1/2}$ of solutions of the equation $\psi(z) = q$, where $\psi(z)$ is the Laplace exponent of a hyperexponential L\'{e}vy process. As a direct consequence we der…
