. Inroducion In he presen paper, we propose a new compuaional echnique wih he Asympoic Expansion (AE approach o achieve variance reducion of he Mone-Carlo inegraion appearing especially in finance. In order o compue conrol variables, we uilize he analyic approximaion based on he AE in akahashi (999 and Kuniomo and akahashi (3a. We exend he algorihm developed by akahashi and Yoshida (3 o he second order asympoics. his scheme gives us more precise esimae efficienly han he second order AE when he precision of he AE is no saisfacory for pracical purpose. Moreover, we apply he AE o approximae ime dependen differenials of he arge value in Newon (994 s scheme. hrough numerical experimens, we observe remarkable acceleraion of convergence, which implies broad applicaions of our echniques. Our numerical examples include pricing of average and baske opions when he underlying sae variables follow Consan Elasiciy of Variance (CEV processes. he organizaion of his paper is as follows. In he nex secion, we review he resul of akahashi and Yoshida (5 and exend i o he higher order asympoics. Moreover, in order o demonsrae he broad usage of he AE, we propose applying he AE o Newon (994 s scheme. In secion 3, we review he ouline of he AE approach followed by deriving he pricing formulas of average and baske opions of which he underlying sae variables are described by CEV processes. In secion 4, we presen he resul of numerical experimens.. Variance reducion echnique. he Exension of akahashi and Yoshida (5 Suppose ha he d R valued processes u (, d X s y ( s u, y R follow he

sochasic inegral equaion : u ( ( ( u u, = s,, s,, s, ( X y y V X y ds V X y db where ( For a sochasic approximaion of < is a parameer. ( ( u, y E f X, y, an esimaor by crude Moe Carlo simulaions is expressed as N ( G( n, N = f ( X. ( N j= j Here, [ Z ] j ( j =,..., N denoe he realized value of he ih independen rial of any random variable Z, and he discreized approximaion of X based on Euler-Maruyama scheme is given by u (, (, u s, (3 ( ( ( u = η( s η s X y V X ds V X db ns where η ( s =. n From he mahemaical poin of view, we should noe ha i is no a rivial hing o jusify his ype of approximaion based on he Mone Carlo mehod, which has been ofen used in pracice. In paricular when f ( is no a smooh funcion such as cash flow funcions for opions, we need a careful discussion on is mahemaical foundaion. While akahashi and Yoshida (5 have invesigaed his problem in some deails, we shall focus on he pracical aspecs of our mehod for financial applicaions hroughou his paper. Definiion A modified new esimaor of u(, y is defined by ( ( N * ˆ ( G, n, N = Ef X (, ˆ( y f X f X. (4 N j ( ( Here, we assume ha E fˆ X, y j= is calculaed analyically. We call he While we omi he descripion of some mahemaical seing, we assume ha all he necessary mahemaical condiions o modify he formula are saisfied. [ x] indicaes he larges ineger ha is no greaer han x. 3

Mone Carlo simulaion which uses (4 hybrid (Mone Carlo mehod hereafer. his esimae can be explained inuiively. When he difference beween ( (, f X u y j and ( ( fˆ X Efˆ X, y j is small for each * independen copy j, hen we can expec ha he error of G (, n, N rue value u(, y can be small because errors of can be cancelled ou. hen we have ( X j minus f and ˆ ( f X j (,, (, * G n N u y j= ( ( ( { } ( { ( } N = f X, ˆ ˆ E f X f X E f X,, N j (5 and we denoe ( X as X by seing =, hen we expec ha he correlaion beween ( X ( X and X is posiively high. Hence he correlaion beween f and ˆ ( f X becomes posiively high. his ype of j j esimae in (4 could be similar o he conrol variae echnique, which has been known in he Mone Calro simulaion. he advanage of he echnique is due o he AE approach, because i is a unified mehod in a sense ha i is applicable o he broad class of processes. We noice ha i is difficul o find conrol variables whose expecaion can no be derived analyically. Furhermore, usual variance reducion echniques may use conrol variables ha could be applied o very narrow class of processes. For example, he pricing algorihm for an European average call opion which exends Example wo in akahashi and Yoshida (5 o he second order asympoics is as follows: Suppose ha he reference asse price process follows (, ( ( ( ds = rs d σ S db, S ( = S.

( Here, c, and f are obained by he AE. We shall discuss abou hese erms in he nex secion briefly. By definiion, we have ( r ( S r S = e S, A = ( e.

Here, X, ( and X denoe he calculaed value by he Euler-Maruyama scheme., Noice ha calculaing (4 does no require he evaluaion of j ( S, σ pah by pah while compuing ( requires. herefore, he amoun of calculaion of he presen echnique is as large as he crude Mone Carlo mehod. he algorihm shown above is based on he second order asympoic value. For oher concree applicaions using he firs order asympoic value, see akahashi and Yoshida (5.. Newon (994 s esimaor wih AE Newon (994 derives he following formula f ( X (, y = E f ( X (, y u(, X (, y σ (, X(, y db as.., (7 x where ( ( E f X, y X, y = u, X, y as... and show ha we can obain he ideal esimaor of E f ( X (, y calculaing f ( X (, y u(, X (, y σ (, X(, y db, (8 x pah by pah. Since neiher u(, X (, y nor u(, X (, y x is known, we approximae u, X, y by he AE and differeniae i wih respec o x. ha is o replace ( u, X (, y ( wih he AE formula. We call he Mone Carlo simulaion x which uses (8 Conrol Variae (Mone Carlo mehod hereafer. ( Unforunaely, since we need compue, (, u X y no only pah by pah bu also a each ime sep, his echnique consumes he larger compuaion resources. 6

We inroduce A δ, wih a posiive consan, δ, A = δ, Sudu δ. (7 δ Here, δ represens elapsed ime since conrac dae unil ime zero. And we assume ha r is consan.
