Pricing of arithmetic basket and Asian basket options by conditioning

Determining the price of a basket option is not a trivial task, because there is no explicit analytical expression available for the distribution of the weighted sum of the assets in the basket. However, by conditioning the price processes of the underlying assets, this price can be decomposed in two parts, one of which can be computed exactly. For the remaining part we first derive a lower and an upper bound based on comonotonic risks, and another upper bound equal to that lower bound plus an error term. Secondly, we derive an approximation by applying some moment matching method
