Geometric Brownian Motion - Multivariate Geometric Brownian Motion

Multivariate Geometric Brownian Motion

GBM can be extended to the cast where there are multiple correlated price paths.

Each price path follows the underlying process

,

where the Wiener processes are correlated such that where .

For the multivariate case, this implies that

.

Famous quotes containing the words geometric and/or motion:

    “In mathematics he was greater
    Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
    For he, by geometric scale,
    Could take the size of pots of ale;
    Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
    If bread and butter wanted weight;
    And wisely tell what hour o’ th’ day
    The clock doth strike, by algebra.”
    —Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

    “All the phenomena which surround him are simple and grand, and there is something impressive, even majestic, in the very motion he causes, which will naturally be communicated to his own character, and he feels the slow, irresistible movement under him with pride, as if it were his own energy.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
