This paper deals with a new numerical method for the approximation of the early exercise boundary in the American option pricing problem. In more detail, using the mean-value theorem for integrals, we provide a flexible algorithm that allows for reaching a more accurate numerical solution with fewer calculations rather than other previously described methods.
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.
