We consider option pricing problems in the stochastic volatility jump diffusion model with correlated and contemporaneous jumps in both the return and the variance processes (SVCJ). The option value function solves a partial integro-differential equation (PIDE). We discretize this PIDE in space...

The value of a contingent claim under a jump-diffusion process satisfies a partial integro-differential equation (PIDE). We localize and discretize this PIDE in space by the central difference formula and in time by the second order backward differentiation formula. The resulting system Tnx = b...
