Frequent 'black-scholes' Questions - Quantitative Finance
In Black and Scholes (1973) it was demonstrated how to price European options based on the geometric Brownian model. This stock-price model has been widely acclaimed and is now known as the Black-Scholes model. As pointed out in chapter 1 in Cont and Tankov (2004) there are, however, a number of flaws with the Black-Scholes model.

Simulation Approaches to Delta Hedging in the Black
In this paper we extend the standard binomial model to obtain a more flexible model that will be calibrated with market data on European puts and calls. We also discuss how this extended model can be used to incorporate an investor’s view of the future behaviour of the stock market.

Jump Diffusion Models for Option Pricing versus the Black
valuation based on DSP using decision tree analysis, the Black-Scholes equation, or Monte-Carlo simulation, is more precise than the conventional method. Also, DSP has advantages over the conventional method in terms of its ability to increase the real value of projects. This thesis finally analyzes policy issues in implementing DSP in MOT, and

The analysis ended up with comparing the Black-Scholes-Merton model to the AR-GARCH and two different orders of ARMA-GARCH model. The result indicates that the Black-Scholes-Merton model was the most accurate and best-performed in 2018. On the contrary, during 2019, the Black-Scholes-Merton model was the worst-ranked in performance of accuracy.

Master Thesis | Black–Scholes Model | Option
This thesis introduces and elaborates on how to approximate option and bond price sensitivities (Black Scholes and Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) models) in a variety of ways. In general, option price depends on time and on the underlying stock variables as well as on a number of parameters such as volatility, interest rate and strike.

The phenomenon of IPO underpricing is prevailing both in China and the international stock market, it has been 35 years since Ibboston started the systematic research of IPO underpricing phenomenon. During this period, although a large number of hypotheses and models had been put forward to explain this phenomenon, yet no consensus is reached, therefore, this phenomenon is also considered as

On the numerical solution of nonlinear Black–Scholes
This thesis investigates three different models for option pricing, The Black Scholes Model (1973), the Merton Jump-Diffusion Model (1975) and the Kou Double-Exponential Jump-Diffusion Model (2002). The jump-diffusion models do not make the same assumption as the Black Scholes model regarding the behavior of the underlying assets’ returns; the
