Detailed Description

Contains the definition of the Dupire's local volatility model class.

DESCRIPTION

The Dupire's local volatility model is a mathematical model used to model the price of various assets. The model assumes that the price of heavily traded assets follow a geometric Brownian motion with deterministic function of stock price and time as volatility. When applied to a stock option, the model incorporates the local price variation of the stock, the time value of money, the option's strike price and the time to the option's expiry.
