Abstract:
The Burgers equation, and related partial differential equations (PDEs), can be numerically challenging for small values of the viscosity parameter. For example, these equations can develop discontinuous solutions (or solutions with large gradients) from smooth initial data. Aside from numerical stability issues, standard numerical methods can also give rise to spurious oscillations near these discontinuities. In this study, we consider an equivalent form of the Burgers equation given by Constantin and Iyer, whose solution can be written as the expected value of a stochastic differential eq

Abstract:
In this thesis, we study the existence of stationary solutions for two cases. One is for random difference equations. For this, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the stationary solutions in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space Rd by applying the coupling method. The other one is for semi linear stochastic evolution equations. For this case, we follows Mohammed, Zhang and Zhao [25]'s work. In an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space H, we release the Lipschitz constant restriction by using Arzela-Ascoli compactness argument. And we also weaken the globally bounded condition for F by applyin

Two-stage stochastic programming problem with PDE constraint, specially elliptic equation is formulated. The computational scheme is proposed, whereas the emphasis is put on approximation techniques. We introduce method of approximation of random variables of stochastic problem and utilize suitable numerical methods, finite difference method first, then finite element method. There is also formulated a mathematical programming problem describing a membrane deflection with random load.

Abstract:
This paper provides an overview of the finite difference method and its application to approximating financial partial differential equations (PDEs) in incomplete markets. In particular, we study German’s [6] stochastic volatility PDE derived from indifference pricing. In [6], it is shown that the first order- correction to derivatives valued by indifference pricing can be computed as a function involving the stochastic volatility PDE itself. In this paper, we present three explicit finite difference models to approximate the stochastic volatility PDE and compare the resulting valuations to th

This thesis covers topics such as finite difference schemes, mean-square convergence, modelling, and numerical approximations of second order quasi-linear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) driven by white noise in less than three space dimensions.

Abstract:
First we consider implicit finite difference schemes on uniform grids in time and space for second order linear stochastic partial differential equations of parabolic type. Under sufficient regularity conditions, we prove the existence of an appropriate asymptotic expansion in powers of the the spatial mesh and hence we apply Richardson's method to accelerate the convergence with respect to the spatial approximation to an arbitrarily high order. Then we extend these results to equations where the parabolicity condition is allowed to degenerate. Finally, we consider implicit finite difference a

Abstract:
We suppose that the price of a firm follows a nonlinear stochastic delay differential equation. We also assume that any claim whose value depends on firm value and time follows a nonlinear stochastic delay differential equation. Using self-financed strategy and replication we are able to derive a random partial differential equation (RPDE) satisfied by any corporate claim whose value is a function of firm value and time. Under specific final and boundary conditions, we solve the RPDE for the debt value and loan guarantees within a single period and homogeneous class of debt. We then analyze th

The Black-Scholes partial differential equation (PDE) and its analytical solution, 1973, are considered a breakthrough in the mathematical modeling for the stock markets.

In what way does an illiquid market affect these decisions and the performance of the fund? And how does the payment scheme affect the investor's decisions? Based on existing work on hedge fund management, we start with a fund that can be modelled with one risky investment and one riskless investment. Next, subject to the hedge fund special rewa

Abstract:
In this thesis, we develop partial differential equation (PDE) based numerical methods to solve certain optimal stochastic control problems in finance. The value of a stochastic control problem is normally identical to the viscosity solution of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation or an HJB variational inequality. The HJB equation corresponds to the case when the controls are bounded while the HJB variational inequality corresponds to the unbounded control case. As a result, the solution to the stochastic control problem can be computed by solving the corresponding HJB equation/variational

In this thesis we study the optimal stochastic control problem of the drift of a Lévy process. We show that, for a broad class of Lévy processes, the partial integro-differential Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation for the value function admits classical solutions and that control policies exist in feedback form. We then explore the class of Lévy processes that satisfy the requirements of the theorem, and find connections between the uniform integrability requirement and the notions of the score function and Fisher information from information theory.

Using the Feynman-Kac theorem, we deduce that the problem of determining the expectation implies solving a linear parabolic partial differential equation.
