A barrier option is a kind of path-dependent option whose return depends on whether the price of the underlying asset reaches a certain barrier level. This paper mainly analyzes European barrier option pricing formulas for the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model with a floating interest rate. The corresponding numerical algorithms for the knock-in and knock-out option prices are designed. Several numerical examples are given to study the relationship between barrier option prices and parameters. Finally, a real-data example is presented to illustrate the option pricing formulas.
Barrier options are categorized as knock-in and knock-out options and have a reward that is contingent on whether the underlying asset price reaches a specified barrier level within the contract period. Barrier options are an essential tool for risk management in the financial market and are extensively applied to different domains, such as risk control, asset management, and so on. The option holders could control the potential returns and losses by setting different barriers, and the barrier options are usually cheaper than the standard options, which makes them popular with many investors.
In a standard Black–Scholes model, barrier options were first analytically valued by Merton [1], using classical results about the first passage time of Brownian motion to a point that can be traced back to Lévy [2]. Heynen and Kat [3] and Carr [4] pioneered partial and outside barrier options, while Kunitomo and Ikeda [5] first tackled double barrier options, Armstrong [6] first dealt with window barrier options, and Guillaume [7] provided the first closed form formulae for step barrier options. Other seminal contributions that cannot all be cited here tackle non-constant boundaries, either deterministic or stochastic, or have been devoted to numerical approximations of barrier option values in more general models, especially those featuring stochastic volatility or jumps. What all these papers have in common is a stochastic approach based on the martingale method of pricing.
The above studies assumed that stock prices follow a Wiener process. In fact, Liu [8] provided a paradox: the actual stock price is impossible to follow any Ito's stochastic differential equation. Additionally, the application of probability theory requires that the real frequency closely resemble the probability distribution, which means that it must be possible to acquire sufficient samples. However, it is sometimes difficult to obtain enough or no samples for an uncertain event. Therefore, Liu [9] proposed the Liu process and developed the uncertainty theory, which was refined by Liu [10].
Liu [11] applied the uncertainty theory to the field of finance, and he first proposed the uncertain stock model. Afterward, many scholars started investigating the issue of option pricing with uncertainty theory. The uncertain stock model, including a mean-reverting process, was presented by Peng and Yao [12]. Chen and Liu [13] established a new uncertain stock model that has periodic dividends. Liu et al. [14] proposed the uncertain currency model, and Deng and Qin [15] examined the pricing issue of the Parisian option within this framework. Liu et al. [16] discussed the pricing problem of the European option using the Caputo–Hadamard UFDEs to simulate the change in the stock price. Pan et al. [17] investigated the pricing problem of Bermudan options. Yao and Qin [18] investigated the European barrier option using Liu's stock model. Similarly, Yang et al. [19] and Gao et al. [20] examined American and Asian barrier options using the same model. Furthermore, Dai et al. [21] explored a non-linear stock model that is named the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model. Based on this model, Liu et al. [22] and Gao et al. [23] investigated the power option and the lookback option, respectively.
We further investigate the price functions of the barrier option with a floating interest rate under the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model. Section 2 introduces some definitions and theorems used in the paper. The price formulas of two knock-in options and two knock-out option prices are investigated in Section 3. We design the numerical algorithms to calculate the option prices and provide several numerical examples in Section 4. In Section 5, the values of the knock-in and knock-out options are calculated by utilizing the Shanghai Interbank Offered Rate (SHIBOR) and the closing price for Haitian food. Section 6 gives a concise conclusion.
Definition 2.1. (Liu [11]) An uncertain process Ct is called the Liu process if the following three conditions are satisfed:
(1) C0=0, and almost all sample paths are Lipschitz continuous,
(2) Ct has stationary and independent increments,
(3) Every increment Cs+t−Cs is a normal uncertain variable with an expected value 0 and variance t2.
Theorem 2.2. (Liu [9]) Suppose M is an uncertain measure, and for events Λ1 and Λ2 with Λ1⊂Λ2, we can obtain
M{Λ1}≤M{Λ2}. |
Theorem 2.3. (Liu [10]) Let ξ be an uncertain variable with a regular uncertainty distribution Φ. Then
E[ξ]=∫10Φ−1(α)dα. |
Definition 2.4. (Yao and Chen [24]) Assume that f(t,x) and g(t,x) are two continuous functions, respectively, and Ct is a Liu process. Then
dXt=f(t,Xt)dt+g(t,Xt)dCt |
is called an uncertain differential equation.
Theorem 2.5. (Yao and Chen [24]) Suppose Xt and Xαt be the solution and α-path of the uncertain differential equation
dXt=f(t,Xt)dt+g(t,Xt)dCt |
respectively. Then
M{Xt≤Xαt,∀t∈[0,T]}=α, |
M{Xt>Xαt,∀t∈[0,T]}=1−α, |
and
Φ−1(α)=Xαt |
where Φ−1(α) is the inverse uncertainty distribution of the uncertain variable Xt.
Liu [11] first presented the uncertain stock model
{dXt=rXtdt,dYt=μYtdt+σYtdCt, | (3.1) |
where Yt represents the stock price, μ and σ are the drift item and the diffusion item of Yt. Xt represents the bond price, the interest rate r is a constant, and Ct is a Liu process. Let B be the strike price and T be the expiration date. Liu [11] studied the European call option pricing formula
fc=exp(−rT)∫10(Y0exp(μT+√3σTπlnα1−α)−B)+dα |
and the European put option pricing formula
fp=exp(−rT)∫10(B−Y0exp(μT+√3σTπlnα1−α))+dα. |
In the model (3.1), which considers stock price movements in the short term, it is assumed that the interest rate is a fixed constant. However, the stock price varies around a constant rather than rising or falling constantly in the long term. In order to improve the model (3.1) to reflect the real financial markets, it is vital to take into account the volatility of interest rates. Then, Sun and Su [25] presented the following model:
{drt=(a1−b1rt)dt+σ1dC1t,dYt=(a2−b2Yt)dt+σ2dC2t, | (3.2) |
where rt denotes the floating interest rate, a1, a2, b1, b2, σ1 and σ2 are positive constants, and b1≠0, b2≠0, C1t and C2t are two mutually independent Liu processes.
The above uncertain stock models are both linear. Liu [26] explored a nonlinear model with a floating interest rate that can better reflect the financial markets compared to the linear models
{drt=(m−art)dt+σ1dC1t,dYt=μ(1−clnYt)Ytdt+σ2YtdC2t, | (3.3) |
where m, a, c, σ1 and σ2 are positive constants with a≠0, μ is a constant.
The model (3.3) is an uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck stock model that takes into account a floating interest rate. It ensures that the stock price is non-negative and does not fluctuate dramatically in a short period of time. Hence, we investigate the knock-in and knock-out options and derive the price functions under the model (3.3).
This part primarily investigates the European up-and-in call option and the down-and-in put option. Suppose a barrier option has a barrier level D, a maturity date T, and an exercise price B. We define an indicator function to easily describe the barrier option
ID(y)={1, if y≥D,0, if y<D, |
where D is a specified constant.
For an up-and-in call option, the initial asset price is below the barrier level, and the option is activated only when the price moves up to the barrier level before the expiration date.
Let Cui be the option price. The investor buys the option with Cui at the initial time and has a payoff
ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+ |
at the expiration time T. The present value of the return is
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Since money has a time value. At the initial moment, the net income of the investor is
−Cui+exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
The seller receives Cui for selling the option and pays the investor
ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Similarly, the seller has a net income
Cui−exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+ |
at the initial moment.
The fair option price should ensure the investor and the seller get the same expected return. Hence, the option price is
Cui=E[exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+]. |
Theorem 3.1. Assume that a European up-and-in call option for the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model (3.3) has a barrier level D, a maturity date T, and a strike price B. Then the option price is
Cui=∫1θexp(r0−γa(exp(−aT)−1)−γT)(YαT−B)+dα, |
where
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1 |
γ=ma+√3σ1πaln1−αα, |
and
Yαt=exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μct))+lnY0exp(−μct)) |
is the α-path of Yt.
Proof. First, we prove that
exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+ |
is the inverse uncertainty distribution of
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Define two events
Λ1:{exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+≤exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+} |
and
Λ2:{exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+>exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+} |
where r1−αt is the α-path of rt.
Since
Λ1⊃{rt≥r1−αt,sup0≤t≤TYt≤sup0≤t≤TYαt,YT≤YαT}⊃{rt≥r1−αt,Yt≤Yαt,∀t}, |
we obtain
M{Λ1}≥M{rt≥r1−αt,Yt≤Yαt,∀t}=M{rt≥r1−αt,∀t}∧M{Yt≤Yαt,∀t}=α. |
Similarly, because of
Λ2⊃{rt<r1−αt,sup0≤t≤TYt>sup0≤t≤TYαt,YT>YαT}⊃{rt<r1−αt,Yt>Yαt,∀t}, |
we obtain
M{Λ2}≥M{rt<r1−αt,Yt>Yαt,∀t}=M{rt<r1−αt,∀t}∧M{Yt>Yαt,∀t}=1−α. |
According to the duality axiom, we obtain M{Λ1}+M{Λ2}=1, which means that M{Λ1}=α. Hence, we obtain
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+ |
has an inverse uncertainty distribution
exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+. |
By using the calculation formula for the expected value, we have
Cui=∫10exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+dα. |
Note that rαt satisfies the following ordinary differential equation:
drαt=(m−arαt)dt+σ1Φ−1(α)dt. |
So it is easily verified that
r1−αt=r0exp(−at)+(ma+√3σ1πaln1−αα)(1−exp(−at)). |
From Theorem 6 in [21], we obtain
Yαt=exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μct))+lnY0exp(−μct)). |
Additionally, the equation
ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)=1 |
is equivalent to
sup0≤t≤TYαt≥D. |
Note that Y0<D in the up-and-in option and Yαt is a monotone function of t. Yαt increases with t, we can obtain
sup0≤t≤TYαt=YαT, |
which implies that
ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)=1 |
and
YαT≥D. |
Conversely, if Yαt decreases with t, we obtain
sup0≤t≤TYαt=Y0<D. |
It means that
ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)=0, |
which contradicts with
ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)=1. |
Therefore, Yαt is an increasing function of t. We derive that
exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μcT))+lnY0exp(−μcT))≥D, |
which implies that
α≥(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1=θ. |
Consequently, we can rewrite the option price as
Cui=∫10exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(sup0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+dα=∫1θexp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)(YαT−B)+dα=∫1θexp(r0−γa(exp(−aT)−1)−γT)(YαT−B)+dα. |
For a down-and-in put option, the initial asset price is above the barrier level, and the option is not activated until the price decreases to the barrier level before the expiration date.
Let Pdi be the option price. The investor purchases the option at the initial time for Pdi and has a payoff of
(1−ID(inf0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
The present value of the return is
exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(inf0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
Then, the investor's net return is
−Pdi+exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(inf0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
Similarly, the seller's net return is
Pdi−exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(inf0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
Hence, the option price is
Pdi=E[exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(inf0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+]. |
Corollary 3.1. Assume that a European down-and-in put option for the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model (3.3) has a barrier level D, a maturity date T, and a strike price B. Then the price of this option is
Pdi=∫θ0exp(r0−ηa(exp(−aT)−1)−ηT)(B−YαT)+dα, |
where
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1, |
η=ma+√3σ1πalnα1−α, |
and
Yαt=exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μct))+lnY0exp(−μct)) |
is the α-path of Yt.
This part investigates two European knock-out options under the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model (3.3), including the up-and-out option and the down-and-out option.
The down-and-out call option is a contract whose price of the asset is above the barrier level at the beginning of the transaction. The option is void until the price decreases to the barrier level before the expiration date.
Let Cdo be the option price. The investor buys an option with Cdo at the initial time and has a payoff
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Then the investor's net return is
−Cdo+exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
And the seller receives Cdo for selling the option at the initial time and has a net return
Cdo−exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Therefore, the option price is
Cdo=E[exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+]. |
Theorem 3.2. Assume that a European down-and-out call option for the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model (3.3) has a barrier level D, a maturity date T, and a strike price B. Then the option price is
Cdo=∫1θexp(r0−γa(exp(−aT)−1)−γT)(YαT−B)+dα, |
where
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1, |
γ=ma+√3σ1πaln1−αα, |
and
Yαt=exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μct))+lnY0exp(−μct)) |
is the α-path of Yt.
Proof. First, we prove that
exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+ |
is the inverse uncertainty distribution of
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+. |
Define two events
Λ1:{exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+≤exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+} |
and
Λ2:{exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+>exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+}, |
where r1−αt is the α-path of rt.
Since
Λ1⊃{rt≥r1−αt,inf0≤t≤TYt≤inf0≤t≤TYαt,YT≤YαT}⊃{rt≥r1−αt,Yt≤Yαt,∀t}, |
we obtain
M{Λ1}≥M{rt≥r1−αt,Yt≤Yαt,∀t}=M{rt≥r1−αt,∀t}∧M{Yt≤Yαt,∀t}=α. |
Similarly, due to
Λ2⊃{rt<r1−αt,inf0≤t≤TYt>inf0≤t≤TYαt,YT>YαT}⊃{rt<r1−αt,Yt>Yαt,∀t}, |
we obtain
M{Λ2}≥M{rt<r1−αt,Yt>Yαt,∀t}=M{rt<r1−αt,∀t}∧M{Yt>Yαt,∀t}=1−α. |
According to the duality axiom, we obtain
M{Λ1}+M{Λ2}=1, |
which indicates that
M{Λ1}=α. |
Thus, we obtain
exp(−∫T0rtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYt)(YT−B)+ |
has an inverse uncertainty distribution
exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+. |
From the calculation formula for the expected value, we obtain
Cdo=∫10exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+dα. |
Additionally, note that
ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)=1 |
is equivalent to
inf0≤t≤TYαt≥D. |
Note that Y0>D, and Yαt is a monotonic function of time t. If Yαt increases with t, we can obtain
inf0≤t≤TYαt=Y0>D, |
which implies
ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)=1. |
Conversely, if Yαt decreases with t, we obtain
inf0≤t≤TYαt=YαT, |
which means that
ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)=1 |
and YαT≥D.
Therefore, we deduce that
exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μcT))+lnY0exp(−μcT))≥D, |
which indicates that
α≥(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1=θ. |
Consequently, we can rewrite the option price as
Cdo=∫10exp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)ID(inf0≤t≤TYαt)(YαT−B)+dα=∫1θexp(−∫T0r1−αtdt)(YαT−B)+dα=∫1θexp(r0−γa(exp(−aT)−1)−γT)(YαT−B)+dα. |
The up-and-out put option is a contract whose price of the asset is below the barrier level at the beginning of the transaction. The option is invalid until the price exceeds the barrier level before the expiration date.
Let Puo be the option price. The investor buys an option with Puo at the initial moment and has a payoff
exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(sup0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
Then, the investor's net return at the initial time is
−Puo+exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(sup0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
And the seller receives Puo for selling the option at the initial time and has a net return
Puo−exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(sup0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+. |
Therefore, the option price is
Puo=E[exp(−∫T0rtdt)(1−ID(sup0≤t≤TYt))(B−YT)+]. |
Corollary 3.2. Assume that a European up-and-out put option for the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model (3.3) has a barrier level D, a maturity date T, and a strike price B. Then the price of this option is
Puo=∫θ0exp(r0−ηa(exp(−aT)−1)−ηT)(B−YαT)+dα, |
where
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1, |
η=ma+√3σ1πalnα1−α, |
and
Yαt=exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnα1−α)(1−exp(−μct))+lnY0exp(−μct)) |
is the α-path of Yt.
This section focuses on developing numerical methods to compute the prices of knock-in options and analyzing the effects of different parameters on the option values. The numerical algorithms for calculating the knock-out option prices are similar to those presented in this section. Furthermore, the effects of the parameters on the knock-out option prices can be analyzed in the same way.
The algorithm for calculating the price Cui is designed according to Theorem 3.1.
Step 0: Set the values of r0, m, a, σ1, Y0, μ, c, σ2, B, T, and D.
Step 1: Calculate
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1. |
Step 2: Set αj=θ+j(1−θ)/N, j=1,2,...,N−1, where N is a large positive integer.
Step 3: Set j=0.
Step 4: Set j←j+1.
Step 5: Compute the positive deviation
Zj=(YαjT−B)+=max(YαjT−B,0)=max(exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnαj1−αj)(1−exp(−μcT))+lnY0exp(−μcT))−B,0). |
Step 6: Calculate
Gj=exp((r0a−ma2−σ1√3a2πln1−αjαj)(exp(−aT)−1)−(ma+σ1√3aπln1−αjαj)T) |
and Wj=Zj×Gj. Return to Step 4 if j<N−1.
Step 7: The option price function is
Cui=1−θN−1N−1∑j=1Wj. |
Example 4.1. Assume the initial interest rate r0=0.03, the initial stock price Y0=16, and other parameters of model (3.3) are m=0.01,a=0.8,σ1=0.01,μ=0.9,c=0.35, and σ2=0.1, and the parameters of the option are B=18,T=5, and D=20, respectively. Then the price Cui is 1.3657.
It is noted that there are many parameters in the pricing formula of Cui in Theorem 3.1. Next, we investigate the influence of the parameters on the price Cui through numerical experiments. Several examples are given to illustrate the change of Cui on one parameter, in which the other parameters are consistent with Example 4.1.
First, the strike price B and the parameter m are discussed.
Example 4.2. Let the strike price B change from 18 to 23 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 1 displays the results.
It illustrates a negative correlation between the price Cui and B in Figure 1. The result can be explained intuitively from the option pricing formula in Theorem 3.1. The strike price B appears only in the positive deviation, which demonstrates that Cui has a monotonically decreasing relationship with B. Similarly, it can be shown that the price Cui demonstrates a monotonically decreasing relationship with m.
Then, we study the parameter σ2, the maturity time T, and the barrier level D.
Example 4.3. Let the parameter σ2 change from 0.01 to 0.2 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 2 displays the results.
It displays that the price Cui ascends with the parameter σ2 in Figure 2. The asset price is more likely to move up to the barrier level if σ2 increases. Thus, the option price Cui increases with σ2.
Example 4.4. Let the maturity time T change from 1 to 6 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 3 displays the results.
As it is illustrated in Figure 3, the price Cui grows when the maturity time T gets longer. The investor possibly gets more profits, and the seller takes more risks when T ascends. Therefore, the option price Cui increases.
Example 4.5. Let the barrier level D change from 18 to 25 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 4 displays the results.
Figure 4 demonstrates that the price Cui decreases with D. This result may be attributed to the fact that the price of stock is less likely to move up to the barrier level as D increases, and the option is less likely to get activated.
Finally, we consider the parameters σ1, a, μ, and c.
Example 4.6. Let the parameter σ1 change from 0 to 0.1 with step 0.01. Figure 5 displays the results.
Figure 5 illustrates that the price Cui exhibits a positive correlation with the parameter σ1. It is difficult to investigate the relationship between the price Cui and σ1 from the pricing formula. Next, we investigate the impact of σ1 on Cui with different values of σ2, μ, c, Y0, D, and T. The curves are illustrated in Figure 6.
In all cases, it reveals that the price Cui increases with the parameter σ1. Thus, the price Cui is a monotonically increasing function of σ1 as the remaining parameters remain within an acceptable range. Analogously, the changes in the price Cui on the parameters a, μ, and c can be analyzed in the same way.
The algorithm for calculating the price Pdi is designed according to Corollary 1.
Step 0: Set the values of r0, m, a, σ1, Y0, μ, c, σ2, B, T, and D.
Step 1: Calculate
θ=(1+exp(μcπ(lnY0exp(−μcT)−lnD)√3σ2−√3σ2exp(−μcT)+μπ√3σ2))−1. |
Step 2: Set αj=jθ/N, j=1,2,...,N−1, where N is a large positive integer.
Step 3: Set j=0.
Step 4: Set j←j+1.
Step 5: Compute the positive deviation
Zj=(B−YαjT)+=max(B−YαjT,0)=max(B−exp((1c+√3σ2μcπlnαj1−αj)(1−exp(−μcT))+lnY0exp(−μcT)),0). |
Step 6: Calculate
Gj=exp((r0a−ma2−σ1√3a2πlnαj1−αj)(exp(−aT)−1)−(ma+σ1√3aπlnαj1−αj)T) |
and Wj=Zj×Gj. Return to Step 4 if j<N−1.
Step 7: The option price function is
Pdi=θN−1N−1∑j=1Wj. |
Example 4.7. Assume the initial interest rate r0=0.03, the initial stock price Y0=16, and other parameters of model (3.3) are m=0.01,a=0.8,σ1=0.01,μ=0.9,c=0.35, and σ2=0.1, and the parameters of the option are B=15,T=5, and D=14, respectively. Then the price Pdi is 0.5425.
Considering the price function of the up-and-in call option is similar to that of the down-and-in put option, we only investigate the influence of B and D on the option price Pdi.
Example 4.8. Let the strike price B change from 10 to 15 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 7 displays the results.
Figure 7 illustrates that the price Pdi increases with B. The result can be deduced immediately from Theorem 1. Since B appears only in the positive deviation, the price Pdi is a monotonically increasing function of B.
Example 4.9. Let the barrier level D change from 9 to 14 with step 0.01, and the other parameters remain unchanged. Figure 8 displays the results.
Figure 8 demonstrates that the price Pdi increases with D. This result may be attributed to the fact that the price of stock is more likely to decrease to the barrier level as D increases and the option is more likely to be activated.
In this section, real financial data are used to illustrate the performances of the four option pricing formulas given in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. Moreover, the method of moments is chosen for estimating the unknown parameters in the model (3.3). The uncertain hypothesis test is utilized in the following example to assess the reasonableness of the estimations.
We choose the Shanghai Interbank Offered Rate (SHIBOR) and the closing price of Haitian food stock for the period of October 20, 2023, to December 27, 2023, which are displayed in Tables 1 and 2.

According to the method of moments for uncertain differential equations [27], the estimations of the parameters in the model (3.3) are m=0.0122,a=0.7139,σ1=0.0011, and μ=0.8669,c=0.2774,σ2=0.0166. Thus, the model (3.3) can be expressed as
{drt=(0.0122−0.7139rt)dt+0.0011dC1t,dYt=0.8669(1−0.2774lnYt)Ytdt+0.0166YtdC2t. | (5.1) |
As we can see from Figures 9 and 10, all the observations of interest rate and stock price fall between the 0.05-path and the 0.95-path, which implies that the estimates are acceptable.
In this part, we employ the uncertain hypothesis testing proposed by Zhang et al. [28] to assess how well the uncertain model (5.1) fits the observed data.
For the first differential equation in the model (3.3),
drt=(m−art)dt+σ1dC1t |
by using the Euler difference, we obtained
rtj+1−rtj−(m−artj)(tj+1−tj)σ1(tj+1−tj)=Ctj+1−Ctjtj+1−tj. |
Since
Ctj+1−Ctjtj+1−tj∼N(0,1), |
it can be obtained that
ωj=rtj+1−rtj−(m−artj)(tj+1−tj)σ1(tj+1−tj)∼N(0,1). |
Similarly, for the second differential equation, we have
zj=Ytj+1−Ytj−μ(1−clnYtj)Ytj(tj+1−tj)σ2Ytj(tj+1−tj)∼N(0,1). |
The sample values of ωj and zj can be obtained from the observed data of rtj and Ytj, where j=1,2,...,48.
The issue of determining whether the model (5.1) fits the data well is converted into a test to verify whether ωj and zj obey the standard normal uncertain distribution N(0,1). Let the significance level α take the value of 0.05, and the two rejection domains are
W1={(ω1,ω2,...,ω48):there are at least 3 index j′s with 1≤j≤48such that ωj<−2.0198 or ωj>2.0198} |
and
W2={(z1,z2,...,z48):there are at least 3 index j′s with 1≤j≤48such that zj<−2.0198 or zj>2.0198}. |
We can see that only ω9=−2.1621∉[−2.0198,2.0198] in Figure 11, thus (ω1,ω2,...,ω48)∉W1. It can also be found that z9>2.0198 and z42<−2.0198 in Figure 12, so we have (z1,z2,...,z48)∉W2. In summary, we can conclude that the model (5.1) is able to fit the observed data well.
We use the option price formulas given in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 to calculate the option prices with Haitian food stock as the underlying asset. Suppose that Y0 is 37.33, r0 is 1.6260%, and the expiration date T is 8. {According to these initial conditions, we calculate the option prices under three different models, including the Black–Scholes model
{dXt=rXtdt,dYt=μYtdt+σYtdWt, | (5.2) |
where r is a constant, the stochastic exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model with stochastic interest rates
{drt=(m−art)dt+σ1dW1t,dYt=μ(1−clnYt)Ytdt+σ2YtdW2t, | (5.3) |
and the model (3.3) used in this paper. The four barrier option prices on the three models are outlined in Table 3. According to Table 3, it can be observed that the price estimates under the model (3.3) are higher than those of the two stochastic models, with the exception of the down-and-out call option.
Cui | Pdi | Puo | Cdo | |
strike price B | 38 | 35 | 38 | 35.5 |
barrier level D | 40 | 34 | 40 | 34 |
B−S model | 0.1569 | 0.0361 | 0.9716 | 1.5868 |
stochastic O−U model | 0.0525 | 0.0033 | 0.5228 | 1.6138 |
uncertain O−U model | 0.2242 | 0.1438 | 1.3018 | 1.4960 |
Finally, based on the three different models, some numerical results for the up-and-in call option are given to visually demonstrate the sensitivity of the up-and-in call option price to the parameters, including barrier level, strike price and expiration date. Tables 4 and 5 illustrate that the price Cui decreases with the barrier level and the strike price, respectively. Table 6 indicates an increasing trend in the price Cui by varying T from 6 to 10. As seen in Tables 4–6, for the comparison of the up-and-in call option prices with different parameters, the uncertain O−U model's price estimates are closer to the stochastic B−S model's price estimates.
barrier level D | 38.5 | 39 | 39.5 | 40 |

This paper primarily focused on the pricing issue of the European barrier option in the uncertain exponential Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model with a floating interest rate. The price functions of knock-in and knock-out barrier options were given. Then we developed numerical algorithms to compute the option prices and provided several numerical examples to show the effect of parameters on the option prices. In the end, we chose Haitian food stock as the underlying asset to demonstrate how to obtain the option prices and compare the option prices under different models.

Suppose the stock price of Haitian food follows the stochastic differential equation
dYt=μ(1−clnYt)Ytdt+σ2YtdWt, |
where Wt is a Wiener process, μ, c and σ2 are unknown parameters. Based on the stock price data shown in Table 2, using Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE), we obtain the estimates of the parameters in the above stochastic differential equation as
μ∗=0.4002,c∗=0.2761,σ∗2=0.0159. |
Hence, we get a stochastic stock model
dYt=0.4002(1−0.2761lnYt)Ytdt+0.0159YtdWt. |
By using the Euler difference, we obtain
εj=Ytj+1−Ytj−μ(1−clnYtj)Ytj(tj+1−tj)σ2Ytj(tj+1−tj)=Wtj+1−Wtjtj+1−tj∼N(0,1). |
Therefore, the sample value of εj can be regarded as a sample of the standard normal distribution N(0,1).
Next we test whether the stochastic stock model fits the stock price of Haitian-food by the "Shapiro-Wilk" test. That is, we should determine whether the sample values of εj are derived from the standard normal distribution N(0,1). The Shapiro function is used in the test with a significance level of 0.05. The result indicates that the value of P is 0.0172, which implies that the sample values of εj don't come from the standard normal distribution N(0,1). Therefore, the stochastic stock model mentioned in this part is not suitable for the observed stock data well.
