Abstract: | This paper establishes a lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with two amending functions for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) arising in Asian and lookback options pricing. The time evolution of stock prices can be regarded as the movement of randomizing particles in different directions, and the discrete scheme of LBM can be interpreted as the binomial models. With the Chapman-Enskog multi-scale expansion, the PDEs are recovered correctly from the continuous Boltzmann equation and the computational complexity is O(N), where N is the number of space nodes. Compared to the traditional LBM, the coefficients of equilibrium distribution and amending functions are taken as polynomials instead of constants. The stability of LBM is studied via numerical examples and numerical comparisons show that the LBM is as accurate as the existing numerical methods for pricing the exotic options and takes much less CPU time. |
