This paper is concerned with the solution of the optimal stopping problem associated to the value of American options driven by continuous-time Markov chains. The valuefunction of an American option ...
As proposed by Irle and Gani in 2001, a process X is said to be slower in level crossing than a process Y if it takes X stochastically longer to exceed any given level than it does Y. In this paper, ...
Markov chains and queueing theory together provide a robust framework for analysing systems that evolve randomly over time. Markov chains describe stochastic processes where the future state depends ...
