   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introduction and five articles devoted to optimal stopping problems of American type options. In article A, we get general convergence results for the American option rewards for multivariate Markov price processes. These results are used to prove convergence of tree approximations presented in papers A, B, C and E. LÄS MER

4. 3. Accurate Finite Difference Methods for Option Pricing

   Författare :Jonas Persson; Lina von Sydow; Per Lötstedt; Johan Tysk; Jari Toivanen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Finite differences; Option pricing; Adaptive methods; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

   Sammanfattning : Stock options are priced numerically using space- and time-adaptive finite difference methods. European options on one and several underlying assets are considered. These are priced with adaptive numerical algorithms including a second order method and a more accurate method. LÄS MER

5. 4. Restructured district heating price models and their impact on district heating users

   Författare :Jingjing Song; Björn Karlsson; Fredrik Wallin; Hailong Li; Heimo Zinko; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; district heating; restructured price model; price model survey; pricing strategy; consumption profile; consumption pattern; alternative cost; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Sammanfattning : District heating (DH) is considered to be an efficient, environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for providing heat to buildings, since electricity is usually co-generated in biomass fuelled combined heat and power (CHP) plants. This gives it an important role in the mitigation of climate change. LÄS MER

7. 5. Option Pricing and Bayesian Learning

   Författare :Ola Jönsson; Nationalekonomiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ekonomisk politik; ekonomiska system; ekonomisk teori; ekonometri; Bayesian learning; Volatility smile; Economics; Polya urn model; economic theory; econometrics; economic systems; Nationalekonomi; economic policy; Finansiering; Financial science;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three chapters devoted to both empirical and theoretical aspects of option pricing. The first chapter investigates the market for European options on the Swedish OMX index using daily data for the period 1993-2000. LÄS MER
