Vulnerable European and American Options in a Market Model with Optional Hazard Process
We study the upper and lower bounds for prices of European and American style options with the possibility of an external termination, meaning that the contract may be terminated at some random time. Under the assumption that the underlying market model is incomplete and frictionless, we obtain duality results linking the upper price of a vulnerable European option with the price of an American option whose exercise times are constrained to times at which the external termination can happen with a non-zero probability. Similarly, the upper and lower prices for an vulnerable American option are linked to the price of an American option and a game option, respectively. In particular, the minimizer of the game option is only allowed to stop at times which the external termination may occur with a non-zero probability.

Super-hedging American Options with Semi-static Trading Strategies under Model Uncertainty
We consider the super-hedging price of an American option in a discrete-time market in which stocks are available for dynamic trading and European options are available for static trading. We show that the super-hedging …
Geometric Step Options with Jumps. Parity Relations, PIDEs, and Semi-Analytical Pricing
The present article studies geometric step options in exponential L\'evy markets. Our contribution is manifold and extends several aspects of the geometric step option pricing literature. First, we provide symmetry and p…

We re-examine and extend the findings from the recent paper by Dumitrescu, Quenez and Sulem (2018) who studied American and game options in a particular market model using the nonlinear arbitrage-free pricing approach de…
Pricing European and American Options under Heston Model using Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Elements
This paper deals with pricing of European and American options, when the underlying asset price follows Heston model, via the interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (dGFEM). The advantages of dGFEM…
