文摘This paper addresses a finite difference approximation for an infinite dimensional Black-Scholesequation obtained by Chang and Youree (2007).The equation arises from a consideration ofan European option pricing problem in a market in which stock prices and the riskless asset prices havehereditary structures.Under a general condition on the payoff function of the option,it is shown thatthe pricing function is the unique viscosity solution of the infinite dimensional Black-Scholes equation.In addition,a finite difference approximation of the viscosity solution is provided and the convergenceresults are proved.
