摘要
In this paper, we introduce a simple and efficient trinomial lattice tree approach for the skew Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) model and the doubly skewed CIR model. Suffering from the terms of local times and non-constant volatility, we apply two transforms to the skew-extended CIR processes. Then we construct a modified trinomial tree for the transformed processes which are piecewise tractable diffusions with constant volatility. As a result, the tree for the original skew-extended CIR processes can be easily obtained by using the inverse transform. Results of applications to zero-coupon bonds, European and American options demonstrate that our simple tree approach is efficient and satisfactory.
