A combined compact difference scheme for option pricing in the exponential jump-diffusion models

In the present paper, starting with the Black–Scholes equations, whose solutions are the values of European options, we describe the exponential jump-diffusion model of Levy process type. Here, a jump-diffusion model for a single-asset market is considered. Under this assumption the value of a Europ...

Description
Summary:In the present paper, starting with the Black–Scholes equations, whose solutions are the values of European options, we describe the exponential jump-diffusion model of Levy process type. Here, a jump-diffusion model for a single-asset market is considered. Under this assumption the value of a European contingency claim satisfies a general “partial integro-differential equation” (PIDE). With a combined compact difference (CCD) scheme for the spatial discretization, a high-order method is proposed for solving exponential jump-diffusion models. The method is sixth-order accurate in space and second-order accurate in time. A known analytical solution to the model is used to evaluate the performance of the numerical scheme.
