We present the concept of an Hermite space, which is a special kind of reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions on the $\R^d$. We review some tractability results regarding integration in those spaces.
We shall show that those spaces behave nicely with regard to orthogonal transforms of the $\R^d$, which in turn can be shown to correspond to different Brownian path constructions like, e.g., the Brownian bridge construction.
We present a method for finding fast and efficient path constructions for a given pricing problem.
Numerical examples will serve to illustrate our findings.
