How to show that this weak scheme is a cubature scheme?
Weak schemes, such as Ninomiya-Victoir or Ninomiya-Ninomiya, are typically used for discretization of stochastic volatility models such as the Heston Model.
Can anyone familiar with Cubature on ...

Law of an integrated CIR Process as sum of Independent Random Variables
It is known (see for example Joshi-Chan "Fast and Accureate Long Stepping Simulation of the Heston SV Model" available at SSRN) that for a CIR process defined as :
$$dY_t= \kappa(\theta -Y_t)dt+ ...

Transformation of Volatility - BS
I have recently seen a paper about the Boeing approach that replaces the "normal" Stdev in the BS formula with the Stdev
\begin{equation}
\sigma'=\sqrt{\frac{ln(1+\frac{\sigma}{\mu})^{2}}{t}}
...

Can the Heston model be shown to reduce to the original Black Scholes model if appropriate parameters are chosen?
Summary
For Heston model parameters that render the variance process constant, the solution should revert to plain Black-Scholes. Closed from solutions to the Heston model don't seem to do this, even ...
