An optimal convergence rate O(βx) for an explicit finite difference scheme for a variational inequality problem is obtained under the stability condition Ο 2 βt βx 2 1 using completely PDE methods. As a corollary, a binomial tree scheme of an American put option (where Ο 2 βt βx 2 = 1) is convergent
In this study, a new approach to pricing American options is proposed and termed the canonical implied binomial (CIB) tree method. CIB takes advantage of both canonical valuation (Stutzer, 1996) and the implied binomial tree method (Rubinstein, 1994). Using simulated returns from geometric Brownian
## Abstract This study investigates the convergence patterns and the rates of convergence of binomial Greeks for the CRR model and several smooth price convergence models in the literature, including the binomial BlackβScholes (BBS) model of Broadie M and Detemple J (1996), the flexible binomial mo
