“…In the table we price a single barrier down-and-out call option for different levels of l and different monitoring dates n. Parameters used are spot price = 100, strike = 100, r = 0.10, σ = 0.2, T = 0.5. The competing numerical approximations are the Wiener-Hopf solution computed using the integral representation (IR) in (17) combined with Padé approximant in [17]; Markov chain (MCh) with a grid with 1001 points in [15]; Monte Carlo (MC) with 10 8 simulations with Mersenne twister generator and antithetic variables according to the results reported in [8] (in brackets we have the standard errors); the trinomial tree (TT) in [12]; the Simpson recursive quadrature method (SQ) (grid spacing 2000 points) in [16]. The Wiener-Hopf (WH) solution in (10) has been computed with 300x100 terms for the double sum.…”

“…The inversion of the z-transform has been computed setting ρ = 10 −γ/2n , γ = 8 and n the number of monitoring dates In Table 2 we consider a numerically more difficult example, that is taking the barrier level approaching the spot price. The competing methods are the Markov Chain method (MCh) in [15], the trinomial tree method in [13], the Simpson recursive quadrature method in [16] and the Monte Carlo simulation with 10 8 simulations with Mersenne twister pseudo random generator and antithetic variables in [8]. For the case of 25 monitoring dates and for a spot price far from the barrier (e.g.…”

“…A Dirichlet lattice method based on the conditional distribution via Brownian bridge is given in Kuan and Webber (2003). Duan et al (2003) proposed a method based on Markov chain, in combination of lattice, simulation, and the quadrature method. Other lattice methods include adjusting the position of nodes (Ritchken, 1995;Cheuk and Vorst, 1997;Tian, 1999) and refining branching near the barrier Ahn et al, 1999).…”
