On an optimization problem related to static super-replicating strategies
2015
Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics
In this paper, we investigate an optimization problem related to super-replicating strategies for European-type call options written on a weighted sum of asset prices, following the initial approach in ...
This theory is then applied to static super-replication strategies for some exotic options in a stochastic interest rate setting. ...
The first issue is the (non-)uniqueness of the optimal solution to (7) and hence to the related static super-replicating strategy. ...

Robust static hedging of barrier options in stochastic volatility models
2008
Mathematical Methods of Operations Research
In this paper we develop a new semi-infinite programming formulation of the static super-replication problem in stochastic volatility models which allows to incorporate the model parameter uncertainty ...
After proving existence of robust hedge portfolios and presenting an algorithm to numerically solve the underlying optimization problem, we apply the approach to a detailed real world example. ...

Option pricing bounds via semidefinite programming
2006
2006 American Control Conference
This paper develops optimization based bounds on option prices by using a sub or super replicating portfolio of assets whose value at discrete time points can be expressed as piecewise polynomial functions ...
A dual formulation is then developed, which formulates bounds in terms of an optimization problem involving moment matrices of measures consistent with the prices of tradable assets. ...
definiteness conditions on moment and localizing matrices, we may write an optimization problem that is dual to the piecewise polynomial super and sub replication problem presented in section 3. ...

Computing arbitrage upper bounds on basket options in the presence of bid–ask spreads
2012
European Journal of Operational Research
We study the problem of computing the sharpest static-arbitrage upper bound on the price of a European basket option, given the bid-ask prices of vanilla call options in the underlying securities. ...
We illustrate our results by computing upper bounds on the price of a DJX basket option. The MATLAB code used to compute these bounds is available online at Proof of Lemma 1. ...

Static hedges for reverse barrier options with robustness against skew risk: an empirical analysis
2011
Quantitative finance (Print)
We conduct an empirical evaluation of a static super-replicating hedge of barrier options. The hedge is robust to uncertainty about the future skew. ...
The main result is that the robustness of the static super-replicating portfolio is also empirically confirmed in practice such that the hedge sets an upper bound for the price of skew risk for barrier ...
Our analysis shows that in contrast to typical dynamic hedging strategies the robust static super-replicating hedge neither takes a view on the forward skew nor on the volatility surface dynamics. ...

Rebalancing static super-replications
2017
International Journal of Financial Engineering
This paper proposes a trading strategy that dynamically rebalances static super-replicating portfolios, which is very useful for both investment and hedging strategies. ...
Also, we obtain more concrete features for cross-currency and one-touch options based on our general framework. ...
First, the super-replicating portfolio is constructed at time t = 0 as the cheapest one by solving the optimization problem (3.1) below. ...

Static-arbitrage lower bounds on the prices of basket options via linear programming
2010
Quantitative finance (Print)
The LP formulations readily yield super-replicating (subreplicating) strategies for the upper (lower) bound problem. ...
We show that the problem of computing sharp upper and lower static-arbitrage bounds on the price of a European basket option, given the prices of other similar options, can be cast as a linear program ...
We next present an optimal super-replication trading strategy that solves (12), and whose value is consequently (14). ...

Galerkin method and integration quadratures are used to approximate the hedging problem by a finite dimensional convex optimization problem which is solved by an interior point method. ...
Semi-static hedging improves considerably on the purely static options strategy as well as dynamic trading without options. ...
We use a Galerkin method to approximate the hedging problem by a finite-dimensional convex optimization problem which is then numerically solved by an interior point method much like in [APR18] in a purely ...

Model uncertainty and the pricing of American options

The bound is enforced by a hedging strategy involving these call options which is robust to model error. ...
This paper quantifies the potential value of this flexibility by identifying the supremum on the price of an American option when we do not impose a model, but rather consider the class of all models which ...
Similarly, there is a super-replicating Markovian semi-static strategy for which the cost of the strategy is the lowest amongst the class of all super-replicating semi-static strategies. Proof. ...
