Convergence rate of free boundary of numerical scheme for American option

Abstract / Introduction Related Papers Cited by
  • Based on the optimal estimate of convergence rate $O(\Delta x)$ of the value function of an explicit finite difference scheme for the American put option problem in [6], an $O(\sqrt{\Delta x})$ rate of convergence of the free boundary resulting from a general compatible numerical scheme to the true free boundary is proven. A new criterion for the compatibility of a generic numerical scheme to the PDE problem is presented. A numerical example is also included.
