反弹走廊
Bouncing Corridor
题目详情
Let be a Brownian Motion and and two positive real numbers. We consider an option which pays 1 if reaches and touched the down barrier before. The option is knocked out and pays zero if it touches the up barrier first.
payment is made when the barrier is touched. Calculate the price of this option with rates . Generalize to an option paying 1 after bounces (pays 1 if the
option touches then then etc... n times, pays 0 if is touched first).
解析
payoff:若先碰到 ,之后再到 则支付 1(到达 时支付),若先到 则 0。
由强马尔可夫性质:先到 的贴现概率乘以上移后的单侧命中贴现概率(从 到 等价于从 0 到 ),得到
更多 bounces 可用同样的分解反复迭代,得到几何型衰减因子(每多一次往返通常再乘一个 量级的因子)。
