Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of specifying boundary conditions for Fokker-Planck PDE for reflecting diffusions arising in finance. Main focus is the CIR model, but techniques presented are readily applicable to other models with reflecting boundaries.

Keywords: Fokker-Planck, boundary conditions, reflecting boundary, stochastic volatility
