Abstract

In this paper, we extend the results of Carmona and Touzi [6] for an optimal multiple stopping problem to a market where the price process is allowed to jump. We also generalize the problem of valuation swing options to the context of a Lévy market. We prove the existence of multiple exercise policies under an additional condition on Snell envelops. This condition emerges naturally in the case of Lévy processes. Then, we give a constructive solution for perpetual put swing options when the price process has no negative jumps. We use the Monte Carlo approximation method based on Malliavin calculus in order to solve the finite horizon case. Numerical results are given in the last two sections. We illustrate the theoretical results of the perpetual case and give the numerical solution for the finite horizon case.
