Behaviour of Bond's Embedded Option with Regard to Credit Rating

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the behavior of an option premium of a call/put option which is embedded in a typical fixed coupon bond with finite maturity, and concluded about the dynamics of premium changes; represented by direction and sensitivity; with respect to the changes in credit rating and also risk-free interest rate development.

A high-order deferred correction method for the solution of free boundary problems using penalty iteration, with an application to American option pricing

TL;DR: A high-order deferred correction algorithm combined with penalty iteration for solving free and moving boundary problems, using a fourth-order finite difference method that could be applied to essentially any free boundary problem formulated as an LCP.
