The aim of this lecture is to give a general introduction to the interacting particle system and applications in finance, especially in the pricing of American options. We survey the main techniques and results on Snell envelope, and provide a general framework to analyse these numerical methods. New algorithms are introduced and analysed theoretically and numerically.
