An Adaptive Finite Difference Method Using Far-field Boundary Conditions for the Black–scholes Equation

چکیده
We present an accurate and efficient numerical method for solving the Black–Scholes equation. The method uses an adaptive grid technique which is based on a far-field boundary position and the Peclet condition. We present the algorithm for the automatic adaptive grid generation: First, we determine a priori suitable far-field boundary location using the mathematical model parameters. Second, generate the uniform fine grid around the non-smooth point of the payoff and a non-uniform grid in the remaining regions. Numerical tests are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. The results show that the computational time is reduced substantially with the accuracy being maintained.

We present an accurate and efficient finite difference method for solving the Black–Scholes (BS) equationwithout boundary conditions. TheBS equation is a backward parabolic partial differential equation for financial option pricing and hedging. When we solve the BS equation numerically, we typically need an artificial far-field boundary condition such as the Dirichlet, Neumann, linearity, or pa...

متن کاملAn efficient nonstandard numerical method with positivity preserving property
Classical explicit finite difference schemes are unsuitable for the solution of the famous Black-Scholes partial differential equation, since they impose severe restrictions on the time step. Furthermore, they may produce spurious oscillations in the solution. We propose a new scheme that is free of spurious oscillations and guarantees the positivity of the solution for arbitrary stepsizes. The...

متن کاملA family of positive nonstandard numerical methods with application to Black-Scholes equation
Nonstandard finite difference schemes for the Black-Scholes partial differential equation preserving the positivity property are proposed. Computationally simple schemes are derived by using a nonlocal approximation in the reaction term of the Black-Scholes equation. Unlike the standard methods, the solutions of new proposed schemes are positive and free of the spurious oscillations.
