Abstract

The paper demonstrates the construction of a stock price stochastic process that aligns with observed option prices, drawing inspiration from a manuscript by Professor Erio Castagnoli that employs the concept of a non-linear monotonic transformation of a standard Brownian motion. The paper includes a detailed numerical example that illustrates the implementation of this straightforward and ingenious idea.
