Abstract

In this paper, we consider a class of non-linear models in mathematical finance, where the volatility depends on the second spatial derivative of the option value. We study the convergence and realization of the constructed, on a fitted non-uniform meshes, implicit difference schemes. We implement various Picard and Newton iterative processes. Numerical experiments are discussed.
