Stability of finite difference methods on non-uniform grids for partial differential equations from financial mathematics.

In this research project we derive theoretical stability results for finite difference methods on general non-uniform grids. We consider several applications from financial mathematics. First of all we start with the well-known 1-dimensional Black-Scholes equation. After that we move on to higher dimensional partial differential equations, for example the Heston-Hull-White model. Our theoretical results are supported by numerical experiments.
