In this article we have applied a numerical finite difference method to solve the Black-Scholes European and American option pricing both presented by fractional differential equations in time and asset.

In this paper, installment options on the underlying asset which evolves according to Black-Scholes model and pays constant dividend to its owner will be considered. Applying arbitrage pricing theory, the non-homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation governing the value of installment option is derived. Then, penalty method is used to value the European continuous installment call opt...

Option valuation has been a challenging issue of financial engineering and optimization for a long time. The increasing complexity of market conditions requires utilization of advanced models that, commonly, do not lead to closed-form solutions. Development of novel numerical procedures, which prove to be efficient within various option valuation problems, is therefore worthwhile. Notwithstan...

The inverse multiquadric radial basis function (RBF), which is one of the most important functions in theory RBFs, employed on an adaptive mesh points for pricing a fractional Black–Scholes partial differential equation (PDE) based modified RL derivative. To solve this problem, discretization along space carried out non-uniform grid order to focus hot area, at initial condition model, i.e., pay...

Families of explicit solutions are found to a nonlinear Black-Scholes equation which incorporates the feedback-effect of a large trader in case of market illiquidity. The typical solution of these families will have a payoff which approximates a strangle. These solutions were used to test numerical schemes for solving a nonlinear Black-Scholes equation.

Using the dynamic programming principle in optimal stopping theory, we derive a semilinear Black and Scholes type partial differential equation set in a fixed domain for the value of an American (call/put) option. The nonlinearity in the semilinear Black and Scholes equation depends discontinuously on the American option value, so that standard theory for partial differential equation does not ...

We present an efficient and accurate finite-difference method for computing Black-Scholes partial differential equations with multiunderlying assets. We directly solve Black-Scholes equations without transformations of variables. We provide computational results showing the performance of the method for two underlying asset option pricing problems.

This work presents a theoretical analysis for the Black–Scholes equation. Given a terminal condition, the analytical solution of the Black–Scholes equation is obtained by using the Adomian approximate decomposition technique. The mathematical technique employed in this work also has significance in studying some other problems in finance theory.

The analogue of Black–Scholes formula for vanilla call option price in conditions of (B, S)-securities market with delayed response is derived. A special case of continuous-time version of GARCH is considered. The results are compared with the results of Black and Scholes. © 2006 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
