Abstract

Let X(t) be a diffusion process satisfying the stochastic differential equation dX(t) = a(X(t))dW(t) + b(X(t))dt. We analyse the asymptotic behaviour of p(t) = Prob{X(t) ≥ 0} as t → ∞ and construct an equation such that limtt-10tp(s)ds=1 and limftt-10tp(s)ds=0.

Keywords

diffusion process, parabolic equation
