Conclusion<br />

◮ Large number of high degree basis functions is detrimental <strong>for</strong><br />

convergence<br />

◮ This holds <strong>for</strong> several models, <strong>for</strong> which <strong>the</strong> convergence<br />

analysis is feasible<br />

◮ If <strong>the</strong> results extend to higher dimensions, LS might be<br />

questionable<br />

◮ N, <strong>the</strong> number of paths, increases slowest if St is Brownian<br />

motion<br />

◮ Reason: Linearization coefficients of <strong>the</strong> Hermite polynomials<br />

grow slowest
