Abstract. We aim to compute discretely monitored geometric Asian option prices under the Heston model. This method involves explicit formula for multivariate generalized Fourier transform of volatility process and their integrals over different time intervals using a recursive method. As numerical results, we illustrate efficiency and accuracy of our method. In addition, we simulate scenarios which show evidently practical importance of our work.

This paper provides analytic pricing formulas of discretely monitored geometric Asian options under the regime‐switching model. We derive the joint Laplace transform of the discount factor, the log return of the underlying asset price at maturity, and the logarithm of the geometric mean of the asset price. Then using the change of measures and the inversion of the transform, the prices and deltas of a fixed‐strike and a floating‐strike geometric Asian option are obtained. As the numerical results, we calculate the price of a fixed‐strike and a floating‐strike discrete geometric Asian call option using our formulas and compare with the results of the Monte Carlo simulation.
