- Problem: The probability density function of a random variable is given by the exponential distribution Find the probability that f(x) = {0.55e−0.55x 0 < x, O elsewhere} a. the time to observe a particle is more than 200 microseconds. b. the time to observe a particle is less than 10 microseconds.arrow_forwardThe OU process studied in the previous problem is a common model for interest rates. Another common model is the CIR model, which solves the SDE: dX₁ = (a = X₁) dt + σ √X+dWt, - under the condition Xoxo. We cannot solve this SDE explicitly. = (a) Use the Brownian trajectory simulated in part (a) of Problem 1, and the Euler scheme to simulate a trajectory of the CIR process. On a graph, represent both the trajectory of the OU process and the trajectory of the CIR process for the same Brownian path. (b) Repeat the simulation of the CIR process above M times (M large), for a large value of T, and use the result to estimate the long-term expectation and variance of the CIR process. How do they compare to the ones of the OU process? Numerical application: T = 10, N = 500, a = 0.04, x0 = 0.05, σ = 0.01, M = 1000. 1 (c) If you use larger values than above for the parameters, such as the ones in Problem 1, you may encounter errors when implementing the Euler scheme for CIR.

- 3. Let {X} be an autoregressive process of order one, usually written as AR(1). (a) Write down an equation defining X₁ in terms of an autoregression coefficient a and a white noise process {} with variance σ².

Use these expressions to suggest an estimate of a in terms of the sample autocor- relations {k}.
