In the Black–Scholes model option values are characterized as solutions of certain partial differential equations for European options or partial differential inequalities for American options. In general and in particular for American options, there is no closed-form formulae and the option values have to be evaluated numerically, for example using the finite difference method. Unfortunately, when considering the pricing of options depending on several assets, the finite difference method suffers from the curse of dimensionality.
To circumvent this difficulty, it has been known for more than 50 years that the alternating direction implicit (ADI) algorithm is an efficient procedure for solving a large-scale system of linear equations arising from the finite difference discretization of elliptic or parabolic equations. We describe here the ADI methods and discuss some of their features.
