On the solution of two-dimensional fractional Black–Scholes equation for European put option

Abstract

AbstractThe purpose of this paper was to investigate the dynamics of the option pricing in the market through the two-dimensional time fractional-order Black–Scholes equation for a European put option. The Liouville–Caputo derivative was used to improve the ordinary Black–Scholes equation. The analytic solution is a powerful tool for describing the behavior of the option price in the European style market. In this study, analytic solution is carried out by the Laplace homotopy perturbation method. Moreover, the obtained solution showed that the Laplace homotopy perturbation method was an efficient method for finding an analytic solution of two-dimensional fractional-order differential equation.
