Gonçalves, Fernando F.; Grossinho, Maria Rosário Spatial approximation of nondivergent type parabolic PDEs with unbounded coefficients related to finance. (English) Zbl 1474.65274 Abstr. Appl. Anal. 2014, Article ID 801059, 11 p. (2014). Summary: We study the spatial discretisation of the Cauchy problem for a multidimensional linear parabolic PDE of second order, with nondivergent operator and unbounded time- and space-dependent coefficients. The equation free term and the initial data are also allowed to grow. Under a nondegeneracy assumption, we consider the PDE solvability in the framework of the variational approach and approximate in space the PDE problem’s generalised solution, with the use of finite-difference methods. The rate of convergence is estimated.
