Abstract:

This study discusses the Lie Symmetry Analysis of Black-Scholes equation via a modified local one-parameter transformations. It can be argued that the transformation of the Black-Scholes equation is firstly obtained by means of riskless rate. Thereafter, the corresponding determining equations to the reduced equation are found. Furthermore, new symmetries of the Black-Scholes equation are constructed and lead to invariant solutions.
