Numerical solution of ?-Hilfer fractional Black-Scholes equations via space-time spectral collocation method

Trivially, the time-fractional Black-Scholes (FBS) equation is utilized to describe the behavior of the option pricing in financial markets. This work is intended as an attempt to introduce the 0-Hilfer fractional Black-Scholes (0-HFBS) equation. First, we concentrate on demonstrating the existence of the solution to the 0-HFBS equations. Second, a numerical scheme is presented for solving the equation given the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The approximate solu-tions are considered as linear combinations of the Lagrange functions with unidentified coefficients. By collocating the considered equation together with the boundary and initial conditions at Chebyshev-Gauss-Lobato (CGL) points, it will be converted to a system of linear algebraic equa-tions. Next, we have proved the convergence of the approach. Finally, some test problems are given in order to indicate the suggested method.(c) 2023 The Authors.
