Abstract

The paper studies the binomial tree method for American options in a jump-diffusion model. We employ the theory of viscosity solution to show uniform convergence of the binomial tree method for American options. We also prove existence and convergence of the optimal exercise boundary in the binomial tree approximation. In addition, the terminal value of the optimal exercise boundary is given for American options in jump-diffusion models.
