Pricing TARN Using a Finite Difference Method [PDF]
Typically options with a path dependent payoff, such as Target Accumulation Redemption Note (TARN), are evaluated by a Monte Carlo method. This paper describes a finite difference scheme for pricing a TARN option. Key steps in the proposed scheme involve tracking of multiple one-dimensional finite difference solutions, application of jump conditions at

A class of Finite difference Methods for solving inhomogeneous damped wave equations [PDF]
In this paper, a class of finite difference numerical techniques is presented to solve the second-order linear inhomogeneous damped wave equation. The consistency, stability, and convergences of these numerical schemes are discussed. The results obtained are compared to the exact solution, ordinary explicit, implicit finite difference methods, and the ...

Binary black hole simulation with an adaptive finite element method II: Application of local discontinuous Galerkin method to Einstein equations [PDF]
Finite difference method and pseudo-spectral method have been widely used in the numerical relativity to solve the Einstein equations. As the third major category method to solve partial differential equations, finite element method is much less used in numerical relativity. In this paper we design a finite element algorithm to solve the evolution part

Numerical Methods for the Stray-Field Calculation: A Comparison of recently developed Algorithms [PDF]
Different numerical approaches for the stray-field calculation in the context of micromagnetic simulations are investigated. We compare finite difference based fast Fourier transform methods, tensor grid methods and the finite-element method with shell transformation in terms of computational complexity, storage requirements and accuracy tested on ...

On the monotonicity and discrete maximum principle of the finite difference implementation of $C^0$-$Q^2$ finite element method [PDF]
We show that the fourth order accurate finite difference implementation of continuous finite element method with tensor product of quadratic polynomial basis is monotone thus satisfies the discrete maximum principle for solving a scalar variable coefficient equation $-\nabla\cdot(a\nabla u)+cu=f$ under a suitable mesh constraint.

A fitted finite volume method for stochastic optimal control Problems [PDF]
In this article, we provide a numerical method based on fitted finite volume method to approximate the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation coming from stochastic optimal control problems. The computational challenge is due to the nature of the HJB equation, which may be a second-order degenerated partial differential equation coupled with ...
