This training course includes the Matlab source code for computing vanilla and barrier option prices, together with their Greeks, under the Heston model. The numerical solution technique is based on a suitable finite difference discretization on nonuniform spatial grids followed by a state-of-the-art ADI time discretization scheme.

  • Heston PDE for vanilla and barrier option prices
  • Initial and boundary conditions
  • Specific issues: mixed derivative, Feller condition
  • Domain truncation
  • Nonuniform spatial grids
  • Spatial discretization: finite difference (FD) schemes
  • Temporal discretization: four state-of-the-art ADI schemes
  • Linear systems: LU factorization
  • Stability and convergence analysis
  • Specific issues: damping procedure, cell averaging
  • Step-by-step discussion of the HestonADI code (Matlab)
  • Numerical experiments
  • Approximation of the Greeks

Presenter Bio

Karel in't Hout

Prof. Karel in 't Hout obtained his PhD in Mathematics in 1992 at Leiden University (The Netherlands) in the field of Numerical Analysis. He subsequently held research positions at the University of Auckland (New Zealand), CWI Amsterdam and Leiden University (The Netherlands), was a quant at ABN AMRO (The Netherlands) and visiting professor at Boise State University and Arizona State University (USA). In 2006 he was appointed at the University of Antwerp (Belgium), where he currently is associate professor. His main research area concerns numerical methods for multidimensional partial differential equations with applications in finance. Notably, he has made ample contributions in the recent years to the analysis and application of splitting schemes, which have been published in leading peer-reviewed numerical analysis and computational finance journals.
