We prove asymptotic convergence results for some analytical expansions of solutions of degenerate PDEs with applications to financial mathematics. In particular, we combine short-time and global-in-space error estimates, previously obtained in the uniformly parabolic case, with some a priori...

We find approximate solutions of partial integro-differential equations, which arise in financial models when defaultable assets are described by general scalar Levy-type stochastic processes. We derive rigorous error bounds for the approximate solutions. We also provide numerical examples...
