Nonlinear Black-Scholes equations have been increasingly attracting interest over the last two decades, since they provide more accurate values by taking into account more realistic assumptions, such as transaction costs, risks from an unprotected portfolio, large investor's preferences or illiquid

✦ Synopsis
This paper deals with the numerical solution of Black-Scholes option pricing partial differential equations by means of semidiscretization technique. For the linear case a fourth-order discretization with respect to the underlying asset variable allows a highly accurate approximation of the solution. For the nonlinear case of interest modeling option pricing with transaction costs, semidiscretization technique provides a competitive numerical solution with respect to others recently given in [B. Düring, M. Fournier, A. Jüngel, Convergence of a high order compact finite difference scheme for a nonlinear Black-Scholes equation,

This paper deals with the construction of explicit solutions of the Black-Scholes equation with a weak payoff function. By using the Mellin transform of a class of weak functions a candidate integral formula for the solution is first obtained and then it is proved that it is a rigorous solution of t
## Abstract In this work, accurate solutions to linear and nonlinear diffusion equations were introduced. A polynomial‐based differential quadrature scheme in space and a strong stability preserving Runge–Kutta scheme in time have been combined for solving these equations. This scheme needs less st
A new method is developed by detecting the boundary layer of the solution of a singular perturbation problem. On the nonboundary layer domain, the singular perturbation problem is dominated by the reduced equation which is solved with standard techniques for initial value problems. While on the boun
