Option pricing using a skew random walk pricing tree
Motivated by the Corns-Satchell, continuous time, option pricing model, we develop a binary tree pricing model with underlying asset price dynamics following It\^o-Mckean skew Brownian motion. While the Corns-Satchell market model is incomplete, our discrete time market model is defined in the natural world; extended to the risk neutral world under the no-arbitrage condition where derivatives are priced under uniquely determined risk-neutral probabilities; and is complete. The skewness introduced in the natural world is preserved in the risk neutral world. Furthermore, we show that the model preserves skewness under the continuous-time limit. We provide numerical applications of our model to the valuation of European put and call options on exchange-traded funds tracking the S&P Global 1200 index.

Market Complete Option Valuation using a Jarrow-Rudd Pricing Tree with Skewness and Kurtosis
Applying the Cherny-Shiryaev-Yor invariance principle, we introduce a generalized Jarrow-Rudd (GJR) option pricing model with uncertainty driven by a skew random walk. The GJR pricing tree exhibits skewness and kurtosis …
Application of simplest random walk algorithms for pricing barrier options
We demonstrate effectiveness of the first-order algorithm from [Milstein, Tretyakov. Theory Prob. Appl. 47 (2002), 53-68] in application to barrier option pricing. The algorithm uses the weak Euler approximation far from…
Explicit expressions for European option pricing under a generalized skew normal distribution
Under a generalized skew normal distribution we consider the problem of European option pricing. Existence of the martingale measure is proved. An explicit expression for a given European option price is presented in ter…
SensitivityAn extremal fractional Gaussian with a possible application to option-pricing with skew and smile
We derive an extremal fractional Gaussian by employing the L\'evy-Khintchine theorem and L\'evian noise. With the fractional Gaussian we then generalize the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula. We obtain an easil…
Analytic RFR Option Pricing with Smile and Skew
We extend the short rate model of Turfus and Romero-Berm\'udez [2021] to facilitate accurate arbitrage-free analytic pricing of SOFR, SONIA or ESTR caplets, i.e. options on backward-looking compounded rates payments, in …
