Abstract

We discuss two numerical techniques, based on the path integral approach described in a previous paper, for solving the stochastic equations underlying the financial markets: the path integral Monte Carlo, and the path integral deterministic evaluation. In particular, we apply the latter to some specific financial problems: the pricing of a European option, a zero-coupon bond, a caplet, an American option, and a Bermudan swaption.
