Ern (and others): the addition of p(u h, v h ) = X F F x Z F F F y h 2 F γ y L (F )[ y u h ][ y v h ]ds {z } =:p y (u h,v h ) + X Z h 2 F γ x L (F )[ x u h ][ x v h ]ds, u h, v h V h F {z } =:p x (u h,v h ) to the standard continuous Galerkin formulation is used to stabilize transport operators F x (F y ) is the set of all horizontal (vertical) faces of the quadrangle mesh on Ω γ = (γ x, γ y ) Workshop on Financial Modeling with Jump Processes p. 10/18
11 Stabilized FEM let V h be the space of continuous piecewise bilinear functions (tensor product of Finite Element space of continuous piecewise linear functions on mesh of width h) let M N. Define the time step τ := T/M. the stabilized FEM formulation reads: Given u 0 h, for m = 0,..., M 1, find V h such that v V h u m+1 h 1 τ u m+1 h u m h, v L 2 (Ω) where the bilinear form a(, ) is defined as a(ϕ, ψ) := + a(u m+1 h, v) + p y (u m+1 h, v) = f, v, A[ϕ], ψ. L 2 (Ω) Workshop on Financial Modeling with Jump Processes p. 11/18
12 Stabilized FEM equivalent to: Given u 0 R dim V h, for m = 0,..., M 1, find u m+1 R dim V h such that M + τ(a + P y ) u m+1 = Mu m + τf where u m+1 is the coefficient vector of u m+1 h w.r.t basis {ϕ j } dim V h j=1 of V h A ij = a(ϕ j, ϕ i ), M ij = (ϕ j, ϕ i ) L 2 (Ω), P y ij = p y (ϕ j, ϕ i ) f j = f, ϕ j curse of dimension: for m BDLPs the space V h has dim V h = O(h (m+1) ) use sparse grid to reduce the dimension of approximation space b V h with dim b V h = O(h 1 log h m ) Workshop on Financial Modeling with Jump Processes p. 12/18
13 Sparse grid Let I = [0, 1]. Define the increment spaces W 1 = span{x, 1 x} W l = span{ψ l j : 1 j 2 l }, l 0, where ψ l j(x) := 1 2 l+1 x (2j 1). + The sparse grid space on level L 0 is then defined as bv L := M 0 l 1 +l 2 L W l 1 W l 2 M 0 l 1 L W l 1 W 1, 0 l 1, l 2 L.

15 Example model parameters: Ω = [ 7, 5] [0, 4], T = 0.5, K = 1, r = 0, λ = 2.5, IG(γ, δ)-lévy kernel k(z) = δ 2 3 2π z 2 (1 + γz)e 1 2 γz with γ = 2, δ = discretization parameters: L = 7, implicit Euler with time step t = two values for ρ: left: ρ = 0.01, right: ρ = 4 Workshop on Financial Modeling with Jump Processes p. 15/18
16 Matrix compression? due to non-locality of Z ea J [ϕ](x, y) := R 2 h ϕ(x + z 1, y + z 2 ) ϕ(x, y)i ek(z1, z 2 )dz 1 dz 2 the corresponding operator matrix e A J in sparse wavelet basis is fully populated hence, complexity is O( b N 2 L), b N L = dim b V L in the BNS model, the non-local operator is A J [ϕ](x, y) = Z R + h i ϕ(x + ρz, y + z) ϕ(x, y) k(z)dz, because the kernel is one dimensional, the matrix A J is not fully populated Workshop on Financial Modeling with Jump Processes p. 16/18
