Error Analysis of Meshfree Approximation in Nonlinear Black-Scholes Model

Godwin Onwona-Agyeman, Francis T. Oduro, Gabriel Asare Okyere & Awudu Obeng · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2020

The transaction cost model of Guy Barles and Halil Mete Soner is incorporated into the standard Black Scholes Equation. The resulting model is solved by a numerical method, called, the meshfree approximation using radial basis function. The errors produced by the scheme are discu...

Radial Basis Function in Nonlinear Black-Scholes Option Pricing Equation with Transaction Cost

Godwin Onwona-Agyeman & Francis T. Oduro · Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics · 2019

Differential equations play significant role in the world of finance since most problems in these areas are modeled by differential equations. Majority of these problems are sometimes nonlinear and are normally solved by the use of numerical methods. This work takes a critical lo...

Optimal Control Analysis of an Age-Structured Malaria Model Incorporating Children under Five Years and Pregnant Women

George Theodore Azu-Tungmah, Francis T. Oduro & Gabriel A. Okyere · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2019

In this article, we apply the optimal control theory to a new age-structured malaria model with three infectious compartments for people under five years, over five years and pregnant women. The model is formulated for malaria endemic areas in the world and the following malaria...

Analysis of an Age-Structured Malaria Model Incorporating Infants and Pregnant Women

George Theodore Azu-Tungmah, Francis T. Oduro & Gabriel A. Okyere · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2019

A new dynamic model for the malaria disease has been developed for areas where the whole populace is at risk and exposure to the malaria infection is continuous throughout the year.  In this model, the two vulnerable groups that is, infectious people those under 5years and pregna...

Predicting Microfinance Credit Default: A Study of Nsoatreman Rural Bank, Ghana

Ernest Yeboah Boateng & Francis T. Oduro · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2018

This paper examined the factors predicting microfinance credit default in Northern Ghana. Data was collected from 409 microcredit beneficiaries of Nsoatreman Rural Bank who were located in urban, semi-rural and rural areas. Logistic regression was used to analyse the data. It was...

Estimating the Parameters of a Disease Model from Clinical Data

George Theodore Azu-Tungmah, Francis T. Oduro & Gabriel A. Okyere · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2017

Estimation of parameters (rate constants) in infectious disease models can be done either through literature or from clinical data. This article presents parameter estimation of a disease model from clinical data using the numerical integration followed by minimization of the err...

Superluminal Motion of Free Spin-half Particles in a Fiber Bundle Formalism

Emmanuel D. K. Gazoya, Francis T. Oduro & Edward Prempeh · Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology · 2016

The hypothesis of the spin of an electron, leading to its angular momentum, is no longer an open question, in science. Experimental evidence like the hydrogen fine structure and the Stern-Gerlach experiment in the 1920s and, recently, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) have for lon...

Maize Price Stabilization in Ghana: An Application of a Continuous-Time Delay Differential Equation Model with Buffer Stock

Martin Anokye & Francis T. Oduro · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2015

The paper is intended to use mathematical models for controlling fluctuations in the price of maize by employing a nonlinear continuous time delay differential equation derived from linear demand and nonlinear supply functions of price. The delay parameters reflect the realities...
