Abstract
Liu process is a basic process in fuzzy environment. As an extension of Liu process, fractional Liu process has attracted the attention of many scholars. In this paper, a fuzzy stock model driven by fractional Liu process is established, and its European, American, Asian, power options pricing formulas are given. In order to better understand these formulas, we give a few numerical examples to illustrate the changes of European option price with different parameters when time is fixed. However, these examples are not based on real-life data since the lack of parameter estimation method for fuzzy differential equation driven by Liu process. Then the changes of American option price are given when time and parameters are both changed. At the same time, we study the parameter interval where the option price fluctuates greatly. Finally, the fuzzy stock model is extended to the generalized case, and the stock price is given.

Table 5 shows the prices of European call option with different parameters.
In order to study the value of the parameter \(\alpha \) when the option prices increase sharply, we obtain Table 6.
Table 6 shows that if \(\alpha \in \) (0.67, 0.68), the option prices increase sharply. That is to say, in reality, it may be better to choose \(\alpha \in \) [0.68, 1], since in which the option prices remain constant. To obtain more precise parameter interval, one can make analysis on \(\alpha \in \) (0.67, 0.68) in the same way above.
Table 7 shows the prices of European put option with different parameters.
We do the same work to find the interval where the option prices increase sharply, see Table 8.
Table 8 shows that if \(\alpha \in \) (0.67, 0.68), the option prices increase significantly.
To obtain the exact interval where the change located, we used four tables to study the change situation of American call option prices (Tables 9 and 10), American put option prices (Tables 11 and 12).
