In this paper, we present a novel technique based on backward-difference method and Galerkin spectral method for solving Black–Scholes equation. The main propose of this method is to reduce the solution of this problem to the solution of a system of algebraic equations. The convergence order of the proposed method is investigated. Also, we provide numerical experiment to show the validity of proposed method.

Option can be defined as a contract between two sides/parties said party one and party two. Party one has the right to buy or sell of stock to party two. Party two can invest by observe the put option price or call option price on a time period in the option contract. Black-Scholes option solution using finite difference method based on forward time central space (FTCS) can be used as the reference for party two in the investment determining. Option price determining by using Black-Scholes was applied on Samsung stock (SSNLF) by using finite difference method FTCS. Daily data of Samsung stock in one year was processed to obtain the volatility of the stock. Then, the call option and put option are calculated by using FTCS method after discretization on the Black-Scholes model. The value of call option was obtained as $1.457695030014260 and the put option value was obtained as $1.476925604670225.

In this study, we present an accurate and efficient nonuniform finite difference method for the three-dimensional (3D) time-fractional Black–Scholes (BS) equation. The operator splitting scheme is used to efficiently solve the 3D time-fractional BS equation. We use a nonuniform grid for pricing 3D options. We compute the three-asset cash-or-nothing European call option and investigate the effects of the fractional-order α in the time-fractional BS model. Numerical experiments demonstrate the efficiency and fastness of the proposed scheme.

In this article, we consider the numerical solution for the time fractional differential equations (TFDEs). We propose a parallel in time method, combined with a spectral collocation scheme and the finite difference scheme for the TFDEs. The parallel in time method follows the same sprit as the domain decomposition that consists in breaking the domain of computation into subdomains and solving iteratively the sub-problems over each subdomain in a parallel way. Concretely, the iterative scheme falls in the category of the predictor-corrector scheme, where the predictor is solved by finite difference method in a sequential way, while the corrector is solved by computing the difference between spectral collocation and finite difference method in a parallel way. The solution of the iterative method converges to the solution of the spectral method with high accuracy. Some numerical tests are performed to confirm the efficiency of the method in three areas: (i) convergence behaviors with respect to the discretization parameters are tested; (ii) the overall CPU time in parallel machine is compared with that for solving the original problem by spectral method in a single processor; (iii) for the fixed precision, while the parallel elements grow larger, the iteration number of the parallel method always keep constant, which plays the key role in the efficiency of the time parallel method.

A wide body of work exists that describes numerical solution for the nonlinear system of underwater towed system. Many researchers usually divide the tow cable with less number elements for the consideration of computational time. However, this type of installation affects the accuracy of the numerical solution. In this paper, a newly finite difference method for solving the nonlinear dynamic equations of the towed system is developed. The mathematical model of tow cable and towed body are both discretized to nonlinear algebraic equations by center finite difference method. A newly discipline for formulating the nonlinear equations and Jacobian matrix of towed system are proposed. We can solve the nonlinear dynamic equation of underwater towed system quickly by using this discipline, when the size of number elements is large.

In this paper, we have applied the finite difference methods (FDMs) for the valuation of European put option (EPO). We have mainly focused the application of Implicit finite difference method (IFDM) and Crank-Nicolson finite difference method (CNFDM) for option pricing. Both these techniques are used to discretized Black-Scholes (BS) partial differential equation (PDE). We have also compared the convergence of the IFDM and CNFDM to the analytic BS price of the option. This turns out a conclusion that both these techniques are fairly fruitful and excellent for option pricing. GANIT J. Bangladesh Math. Soc.Vol. 40 (2020) 13-27
