Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We consider the exact path sampling of the squared Bessel process and other continuous-time Markov processes, such as the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross model, constant elasticity of variance diffusion model, and confluent hypergeometric diffusions, which can all be obtained from a squared Bessel process by using a change of variable, time and scale transformation, and change of measure. All these diffusions are broadly used in mathematical finance for modeling asset prices, market indices, and interest rates. We show how the probability distributions of a squared Bessel bridge and a squared Bessel process with or without absorption at zero are reduced to randomized gamma distributions. Moreover, for absorbing stochastic processes, we develop a new bridge sampling technique based on conditioning on the first hitting time at the boundary of the state space. Such an approach allows us to simplify simulation schemes. New methods are illustrated with pricing path-dependent options.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
