Fast Fourier Transform Approximation of Foreign Currency Option Pricing Based on Exponential Lévy Model

摘要

To study the approximation of foreign currency option prices when the underlying assets' price dynamics are described by exponential Lévy processes, the convolution representations for option pricing formulas were given, and then the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm was used to get the approximate values of option prices. Finally, a numerical example was given to demonstrate the calculate steps to the option price by FFT.
