報告摘要：In this talk, we present the recent work on the sequential quadratic programming method (SQPM) for American option pricing based on the variational inequality formulation. The variational inequality is discretized using the theta method in time and the finite element method in space. The resulting system of algebraic inequalities at each time step is solved through a sequence of box-constrained quadratic programming problems, with the latter being solved by a globally and quadratically convergent, large-scale suitable reflective Newton method. It is proved that the sequence of quadratic programming problems converges with a constant rate under a mild condition on the time step size. The method is general in solving the variational inequalities for the option pricing with many styles of optimal stopping and complex underlying asset models. In particular, swing options and stochastic volatility and jump diffusion models are studied. Numerical examples are presented to confirm the effectiveness of the method.
