Theorem ?For American option pricing, ?if the market is arbitragefree, ?then [ 0 , ]tT??()()ttttC S KP K S?????? Proof of Theorem ? Take American call option as example. ? Suppose not true, ., ? At time t, take cash to buy the American call option and exercise it, ., to buy the stock S with cash K, ? then sell the stock in the stock market to receive in cash. ? Thus the trader gains a riskless profit instantly. ? But this is impossible since the market is assumed to be arbitragefree. ? Therefore, must be true. ? can be proved similarly.
