Abstract

This paper considers the default probability of American lookback option in a mixed jump-diffusion model, where the underlying asset price has to cross two-sided predetermined strikes to activate the American lookback option. We study a default problem with the bankruptcy time being defined as the first passage time of the underlying asset price. By solving a system of coupled MJD-fBm, we obtain an explicit formula for the Laplace transform of the default time. Some numerical results are given for illustration.
