Differentiate the dividend PDE with respect to . The diffusion term contributes , and the stock-drift term contributes . With , the coefficient of is . ThereforeThe terminal condition is wherever the contingent claim payoff is differentiable, with an appropriate weak or limiting interpretation at contingent claim payoff kinks. In the next part the squared positive-part contingent claim payoff is continuously differentiable, so its terminal option delta has no jump.
