It is shown that a global comparison principle with respect to time-dependent volatility holds. Moreover, we proved a global regularity for the free boundary. %K American Option Model %K Regularity of Free Boundary %K Comparison Principle %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=22130
