In this paper, the meshless smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) method is applied for solving the Black–Scholes model for European and American options, which are governed by a generalized Black–Scholes partial differential equation. We use the [Formula: see text]-method and SPH for discretizing the governing equation in time variable and option pricing, respectively. To validate our SPH method, we compare it with the analytical solution and also the finite difference method. The numerical tests demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of our method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
