The 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.

(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. Explain
why.
