Revisit of stochastic mesh method for pricing American options

摘要

From an importance sampling viewpoint, Broadie and Glasserman [M. Broadie, P. Glasserman, A stochastic mesh method for pricing high-dimensional American options, journal of Computational Finance 7 (4) (2004) 35-72] proposed a stochastic mesh method to price American options. In this paper, we revisit the method from a conditioning viewpoint, and derive some new weights.
