Abstract:We apply an exponential time integration scheme combined with a central difference scheme on a piecewise uniform mesh with respect to the spatial variable to evaluate a generalized Black-Scholes equation. We show that the scheme is second-order convergent for both time and spatial variables. It is proved that the scheme is unconditionally stable. Numerical results support the theoretical results.

In the accompanied paper [14], a delayed nonlinear model for pricing corporate liabilities was developed. Using self-financed strategy and duplication we were able to derive two Random Partial Differential Equations (RPDEs) describing the evolution of debt and equity values of the corporate in the last delay period interval. In this paper, we provide numerical techniques to solve our delayed nonlinear model along with the corresponding RPDEs modeling the debt and equity values of the corporate.Using financial data from some firms, we compare numerical solutions from both our nonlinear model and classical Merton model [7] to the real corporate data. From this comparison, it comes up that in corporate finance the past dependence of the firm value process may be an important feature and therefore should not be ignored.

“…It is obviously that the decrease of the collocation points can improve the efficiency of the algorithm. The performance of Mei's interval wavelet [4] relates to the external interpolation points ( ), and the choice scheme of was not given in [3]. It was pointed out in [23] that the bigger usually introduces bigger condition number which can decrease the precision greatly.…”

“…In contrast with the traditional Black-Scholes equation, it is almost impossible to find the analytical solution of the nonlinear Black-Scholes equations. Most of the numerical schemes focus on the finite difference methods [2,3]. As the matter of fact, the wavelet precise integration method (WPIM) is a simple and effective method for linear partial differential equations proposed by Mei et al [4].…”
Interval wavelet numerical method for nonlinear PDEs can improve the calculation precision compared with the common wavelet. A new interval Shannon wavelet is constructed with the general variational principle. Compared with the existing interval wavelet, both the gradient and the smoothness near the boundary of the approximated function are taken into account. Using the new interval Shannon wavelet, a multiscale interpolation wavelet operator was constructed in this paper, which can transform the nonlinear partial differential equations into matrix differential equations; this can be solved by the coupling technique of the wavelet precise integration method (WPIM) and the variational iteration method (VIM). At last, the famous Black-Scholes model is taken as an example to test this new method. The numerical results show that this method can decrease the boundary effect greatly and improve the numerical precision in the whole definition domain compared with Yan’s method.
