Option convergence rate with geometric random walks approximations

We describe a broad setting under which, for European options, if the underlying asset form a geometric random walk then, the error with respect to the Black–Scholes model converges to zero at a speed of 1/ for continuous payoffs functions, and at a speed of 1∕√ for discontinuous payoffs functions....
