Abstract

This paper investigates problems associated with the valuation of callable American volatility put options. Our approach involves modeling volatility dynamics as a mean-reverting 3/2 volatility process. We first propose a pricing formula for the perpetual American knock-out put. Under the given conditions, the value of perpetual callable American volatility put options is discussed.
