Urban Reduced Model and POD Reduced Basis Methods and POD Problem Many solutions of the PDE are necessary for the Calculation of the Hedge weights in the simulation (N 63), each with different parameters. ùñ Approximate the solution with a reduced model. Instead of the classical hat basis (FE) 1 Hat basis on Ω p 1, 1q with Ny try to use a reduced basis consisting of empirical eigenfunctions.

Hedge Calculation and Evaluation 1. Choose the maturity of C A as t21, 126, 189u days. 2. Choose the hedge model. 3. For each trajectory the hedge model gets calibrated to S t and (a subset of) C E,1,..., C E,15 on a daily basis. 4. Calculate the hedge portfolio. 5. At the end of the path the hedging error is evaluated. 6. Build up the hedging error distribution.
