AbstractIn this paper we study the numerical method for a time-fractional Black–Scholes equation, which is used for option pricing. The solution of the fractional-order differential equation may be singular near certain domain boundaries, which leads to numerical difficulty. In order to capture the singular phenomena, a numerical method based on an adaptive moving mesh is developed. A finite difference method is used to discretize the time-fractional Black–Scholes equation and error analysis for the discretization scheme is derived. Then, an adaptive moving mesh based on an a priori error analysis is established by equidistributing monitor function. Numerical experiments support these theoretical results.

AbstractThis paper deals with the application of a moving mesh method for kinetic/hydrodynamic coupling model in two dimensions. With some criteria, the domain is dynamically decomposed into three parts: kinetic regions where fluids are far from equilibrium, hydrodynamic regions where fluids are near thermody-namical equilibrium and buffer regions which are used as a smooth transition. The Boltzmann-BGK equation is solved in kinetic regions, while Euler equations in hydrodynamic regions and both equations in buffer regions. By a well defined monitor function, our moving mesh method smoothly concentrate the mesh grids to the regions containing rapid variation of the solutions. In each moving mesh step, the solutions are conservatively updated to the new mesh and the cut-off function is rebuilt first to consist with the region decomposition after the mesh motion. In such a framework, the evolution of the hybrid model and the moving mesh procedure can be implemented independently, therefore keep the advantages of both approaches. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the method.

AbstractThis paper extends the adaptive moving mesh method developed by Tang and Tang [36] to two-dimensional (2D) relativistic hydrodynamic (RHD) equations. The algorithm consists of two “independent” parts: the time evolution of the RHD equations and the (static) mesh iteration redistribution. In the first part, the RHD equations are discretized by using a high resolution finite volume scheme on the fixed but nonuniform meshes without the full characteristic decomposition of the governing equations. The second part is an iterative procedure. In each iteration, the mesh points are first redistributed, and then the cell averages of the conservative variables are remapped onto the new mesh in a conservative way. Several numerical examples are given to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper we analyze the Residual-Free Bubble (RFB) method applied to the linear diffusion–advection–reaction problem. We propose a new a priori error analysis for the method and for its practical implementation in a quite general context, which allows, e.g. linear or quadratic elements on the resolvable scales. We also perform some numerical tests, showing in both cases the advantages of the method.
