Abstract

We present high-order compact schemes for a linear second-order parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) with mixed second-order derivative terms in two spatial dimensions. The schemes are applied to option pricing PDE for a family of stochastic volatility models. We use a non- uniform grid with more grid-points around the strike price. The schemes are fourth-order accurate in space and second-order accurate in time for vanishing correlation. In our numerical convergence study we achieve fourth-order accuracy also for non-zero correlation. A combination of Crank-Nicolson and BDF-4 discretisation is applied in time. Numerical examples confirm that a standard, second-order infinite difference scheme is significantly outperformed.
