Abstract
AbstractMost of the option pricing problems have nonsmooth payoff. In barrier options certain aspects of the option are triggered if the asset price becomes too high or too low. Standard smoothing schemes used to solve problems with nonsmooth payoff do not work well for the barrier option because a discontinuity is introduced in the time domain each time a barrier is applied. An improved smoothing strategy is introduced for smoothing the A ‐stable Cranck‐Nicolson scheme at each time when a barrier is applied. A partial differential equation (PDE) approach is utilized for the evaluation of complex option pricing models under stochastic volatility which brings major mathematical and computational challenges for estimation and stability of the estimates.
