It does not apply to vanilla calls, and we will come back to this later. 24).

There exist a positive constant C and 0 < a. 24) belongs to D at any time t > 0, for any Cauchy data PQ € L 2 (R + ). 6 Complement: Binomial Trees The second most popular numerical method for pricing options is akin to Bellman's dynamic programming and uses a tree of possible events, the so-called binomial option pricing model. It leads to quite a good numerical method which is also easy to understand. , Sn = St, t = n8t) can evolve in only two ways: • either it goes up by a factor u > 1: Sn+i = uSn with probability p, or • it goes down by a factor d < 1: Sn+i = dSn with probability 1 — p. So if we denote by S™ one of the possible values of 5 at stage n, at the next stage we can have 18 Chapter 1.
