Abstract

Option price models in uncertainty conditions may be the proper way to show that the possibilistic mean values produce computation results that may differ in a non trivial may from those obtained with the fuzzy extension principle. In this paper we compare several models for option prices to underline the relevance of the applied methodologies. Length: 13 pages
