Double barrier American put option pricing under uncertain volatility model

Abstract

This paper aims to study the asymptotic behavior of double barrier American-style put option prices under an uncertain volatility model, which degenerates to a single point. We give an approximation of the double barrier American-style option prices with a small volatility interval, expressed by the Black–Scholes–Barenblatt equation. Then, we propose a novel representation for the early exercise boundary of American-style double barrier options in terms of the optimal stopping boundary of a single barrier contract.
