    • Convergence rate of regime-switching trees 

      Leduc, Guillaume; Zeng, Xiangchen (Elseveir, 2016)
      Considering a general class of regime-switching geometric random walks and a broad class of piecewise twice differentiable payoff functions, we show that convergence of option prices occurs at a speed of order 𝒪 (𝑛-ᵝ), ...

    • Convergence rate of the binomial tree scheme for continuously paying options 

      Leduc, Guillaume (Université du Québec à Montréal, 2012)
      Continuously Paying Options (CPOs) form a very natural class of derivatives for hedging risks coming from adverse movements of a continuously traded asset. We study the rate of convergence of CPOs evaluated under the ...
