Pricing Asian options in financial markets using Mellin transforms

Indranil Sengupta

Abstract:
We derived an expression for the floating strike put arithmetic asian options in financial market when the asset is driven by the generalized Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model with stochastic volatility. A solution procedure for the resulting partial differential equation is provided using the technique of Mellin transforms.
