A quant is solving the PDE V_t + (1)/(2) σ^2 S^2 V_SS = 0.
Using Feynman-Kac, what does the solution V(S, t) represent?
- The undiscounted expected terminal payoff E^Q [h(S_T) | S_t = S] with zero drift.
- The price of a standard European call option priced in a Black-Scholes economy.
- The probability that the stock price remains unchanged through maturity.
- The option's delta, computed under the assumption that the risk-free rate equals zero.
