Pricing of a defaultable coupon bond in an extended Merton's model

Three alternative approaches to the valuation of a defaultable coupon bond in an extended Merton's model are given. Probabilistic approach yields a closed-form expression for the arbitrage price of this bond. A boundary value problem method is based on the concept of an CD-extended generator fo...

description Three alternative approaches to the valuation of a defaultable coupon bond in an extended Merton's model are given. Probabilistic approach yields a closed-form expression for the arbitrage price of this bond. A boundary value problem method is based on the concept of an CD-extended generator for Markov processes. The third approach relies on a recursive procedure method in which at every step a suitable Cauchy problem is solved.
