Option pricing in the large risk aversion, small transaction cost limit

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We characterize the price of a European option on several assets for a very risk averse seller, in a market with small transaction costs as a solution of a nonlinear diffusion equation. This problem turns out to be one of asymptotic analysis of parabolic PDE, and the interesting feature is the role of a nonlinear PDE eigenvalue problem. In particular, we generalize previous work of Guy Barles and H. Mete Soner who studied this problem for a European option on a single asset.
