This study deals with a single risky asset pricing model whose volatility is described by Wishart affine processes. This multifactor model with two dependency matrices describing the correlation between the asset dynamic and Wishart processes makes it more flexible enough to fit the market data for short or long maturities. The aim of the study is to derive and solve the call option pricing problem under the double Wishart stochastic volatility model. The Fourier transform techniques combined with perturbation methods are employed in order to price the European call options. The numerical illustrations on pricing predictions show similar behavior of price movements under the double Wishart model with respect to the market price.

This paper deals with the numerical solution of option pricing stochastic volatility model described by a time-dependent, two-dimensional convection-diffusion reaction equation. Firstly, the mixed spatial derivative of the partial differential equation (PDE) is removed by means of the classical technique for reduction of second-order linear partial differential equations to canonical form. An explicit difference scheme with positive coefficients and only five-point computational stencil is constructed. The boundary conditions are adapted to the boundaries of the rhomboid transformed numerical domain. Consistency of the scheme with the PDE is shown and stepsize discretization conditions in order to guarantee stability are established. Illustrative numerical examples are included.

We investigate the European call option pricing problem under the fractional stochastic volatility model. The stochastic volatility model is driven by both fractional Brownian motion and standard Brownian motion. We obtain an analytical solution of the European option price via the Itô’s formula for fractional Brownian motion, Malliavin calculus, derivative replication and the fundamental solution method. Some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the impact of parameters on option prices, and the results of comparison with other models are presented. doi:10.1017/S1446181121000225
