Abstract

ABSTRACTMonte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods are widely used in scientific studies. As quasi-Monte Carlo simulations have advantage over ordinary Monte Carlo methods, this paper proposes a new quasi-Monte Carlo method to simulate Brownian sheet via its Karhunen–Loéve expansion. The proposed new approach allocates quasi-random sequences for the simulation of random components of the Karhunen–Loéve expansion by maximum reducing its variability. We apply the quasi-Monte Carlo approach to an option pricing problem for a class of interest rate models whose instantaneous forward rate driven by a different stochastic shock through Brownian sheet and we demonstrate the application with an empirical problem.
