In this paper, we present the a posteriori error analysis for the finite element approximation of American option valuation problems. We introduce an efficient and reliable error estimator both for the semi discrete and fully discrete backward Euler scheme.
Keywords: American option, a posteriori error analysis., adaptive finite element methods.
