Abstract
Localized meshless radial basis functions (RBFs), which are due to the application of RBFs and finite difference (FD) methods at the same time, are popular well-resulted computational tools for tackling higher dimension partial differential equations (PDEs). In this research, the objective is not only to study a spatial discretization of the financial Heston-Cox-Ingresoll-Ross (HCIR) PDE, but also to apply a non-uniform distribution of nodes for the application of Gaussian RBFs. The combination of these ideas simulate the HCIR PDE quickly and efficiently. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
