A new reconstruction-enhanced discontinuous Galerkin method for time-dependent problems

Kučera, Václav

Similarity:

This work is concerned with the introduction of a new numerical scheme based on the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. We propose to follow the methodology of higher order finite volume schemes and introduce a reconstruction operator into the DG scheme. This operator constructs higher order piecewise polynomial reconstructions from the lower order DG scheme. Such a procedure was proposed already in [2] based on heuristic arguments, however we provide a rigorous derivation, which justifies...

DG method for pricing European options under Merton jump-diffusion model

Jiří Hozman, Tomáš Tichý, Miloslav Vlasák (2019)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Under real market conditions, there exist many cases when it is inevitable to adopt numerical approximations of option prices due to non-existence of analytical formulae. Obviously, any numerical technique should be tested for the cases when the analytical solution is well known. The paper is devoted to the discontinuous Galerkin method applied to European option pricing under the Merton jump-diffusion model, when the evolution of the asset prices is driven by a Lévy process with finite...

Option valuation under the VG process by a DG method

Jiří Hozman, Tomáš Tichý (2021)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper presents a discontinuous Galerkin method for solving partial integro-differential equations arising from the European as well as American option pricing when the underlying asset follows an exponential variance gamma process. For practical purposes of numerical solving we introduce the modified option pricing problem resulting from a localization to a bounded domain and an approximation of small jumps, and we discuss the related error estimates. Then we employ a robust numerical...

DG method for the numerical pricing of two-asset European-style Asian options with fixed strike

Jiří Hozman, Tomáš Tichý (2017)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The evaluation of option premium is a very delicate issue arising from the assumptions made under a financial market model, and pricing of a wide range of options is generally feasible only when numerical methods are involved. This paper is based on our recent research on numerical pricing of path-dependent multi-asset options and extends these results also to the case of Asian options with fixed strike. First, we recall the three-dimensional backward parabolic PDE describing the evolution...

Flux-upwind stabilization of the discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin formulation with Lagrange multipliers for advection-diffusion problems

Paola Causin, Riccardo Sacco, Carlo L. Bottasso (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

In this work we consider the dual-primal Discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin (DPG) method for the advection-diffusion model problem. Since in the DPG method both mixed internal variables are discontinuous, a static condensation procedure can be carried out, leading to a single-field nonconforming discretization scheme. For this latter formulation, we propose a flux-upwind stabilization technique to deal with the advection-dominated case. The resulting scheme is conservative and satisfies...
