Explicit Heston Solutions and Stochastic Approximation for Path-dependent Option Pricing
New simulation approaches to evaluating path-dependent options without matrix inversion issues nor Euler bias are evaluated. They employ three main contributions: Stochastic approximation replaces regression in the LSM algorithm; Explicit weak solutions to stochastic differential equations are developed and applied to Heston model simulation; and Importance sampling expands these explicit solutions. The approach complements Heston (1993) and Broadie and Kaya (2006) by handling the case of path-dependence in the option's execution strategy. Numeric comparison against standard Monte Carlo methods demonstrate up to two orders of magnitude speed improvement. The general ideas will extend beyond the important Heston setting.

Portfolio Optimization in Fractional and Rough Heston Models
We consider a fractional version of the Heston volatility model which is inspired by [16]. Within this model we treat portfolio optimization problems for power utility functions. Using a suitable representation of the fr…
Portfolio OptimizationEfficient option pricing in the rough Heston model using weak simulation schemes
We provide an efficient and accurate simulation scheme for the rough Heston model in the standard ($H>0$) as well as the hyper-rough regime ($H > -1/2$). The scheme is based on low-dimensional Markovian approximations of…
On the RND under Heston's stochastic volatility model
We consider Heston's (1993) stochastic volatility model for valuation of European options to which (semi) closed form solutions are available and are given in terms of characteristic functions. We prove that the class of…
modelAn explicit solution for optimal investment in Heston model
In this paper we consider a variation of the Merton's problem with added stochastic volatility and finite time horizon. It is known that the corresponding optimal control problem may be reduced to a linear parabolic boun…
The rough Hawkes Heston stochastic volatility model
We study an extension of the Heston stochastic volatility model that incorporates rough volatility and jump clustering phenomena. In our model, named the rough Hawkes Heston stochastic volatility model, the spot variance…
