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+ \omeg …

What is the forward rate for a Black-Karasinski interest rate model?
Hi the forward rate equation is not dependent on the model it is calculated upon the prices of zero coupon bonds by the following equation :
$$
P(t,T)=exp{-\int_t^T f_t(u).du}
$$

How to use Itô's formula to deduce that a stochastic process is a martingale?
In general, if you have a process that you can write under the form $F(B_t,t)$ where $F$ is $\mathcal{C}^{2,1}$ then Itô's lemma gives you the drift term and diffusion term of $dF$. Then if the result …
