Reconstruction of the Time-Dependent Volatility Function Using the Black–Scholes Model

We propose a simple and robust numerical algorithm to estimate a time-dependent volatility function from a set of market observations, using the Black–Scholes (BS) model. We employ a fully implicit finite difference method to solve the BS equation numerically. To define the time-dependent volatility...
