Abstract

We present the radial point interpolation method (RPIM) to solve problems for pricing American and European put options on a dividend paying asset. Using RPIM, we get a system of ordinary differential equations which is then solved by a time integration methods . To resolve the difficulties associated with solving the free boundary problem associated with American options, we use a penalty approach. Numerical experiments are presented which prove the computational efficiency of the RPIM.
