Convergence of a high-order compact finite difference scheme for a nonlinear Black--Scholes equation

Fourth-order numerical solution of a fractional PDE with the nonlinear source term in the electroanalytical chemistry

The aim of this paper is to study the high order difference scheme for the solution of a fractional partial differential equation (PDE) in the electroanalytical chemistry. The space fractional derivative is described in the Riemann-Liouville sense. In the proposed scheme we discretize the space derivative with a fourth-order compact scheme and use the Grunwald- Letnikov discretization of the Ri...

Unconditionally Stable Difference Scheme for the Numerical Solution of Nonlinear Rosenau-KdV Equation

In this paper we investigate a nonlinear evolution model described by the Rosenau-KdV equation. We propose a three-level average implicit finite difference scheme for its numerical solutions and prove that this scheme is stable and convergent in the order of O(τ2 + h2). Furthermore we show the existence and uniqueness of numerical solutions. Comparing the numerical results with other methods in...

High order compact finite difference schemes for a nonlinear Black-Scholes equation

A new approach to using the cubic B-spline functions to solve the Black-Scholes equation

Nowadays, options are common financial derivatives. For this reason, by increase of applications for these financial derivatives, the problem of options pricing is one of the most important economic issues. With the development of stochastic models, the need for randomly computational methods caused the generation of a new field called financial engineering. In the financial engineering the pre...
