Group Classification of a Generalized Black--Scholes--Merton Equation

Analysis of PDEs 2014-04-28 v1

Abstract

The complete group classification of a generalization of the Black-Scholes-Merton model is carried out by making use of the underlying equivalence and additional equivalence transformations. For each non linear case obtained through this classification, invariant solutions are given. To that end, two boundary conditions of financial interest are considered, the terminal and the barrier option conditions.
