The weak formulation ( 9.26 ) addresses the Heston model. Since the generator
H
MS
A
( 9.15 ) has the same structure as the generator
A
( 9.16 ) of the multi-scale
model of Example 9.1.1 ,i.e. n v =
1, ξ(y)
=|
y
|
, we also obtain the well-posedness
of the weak formulation for this model.
We derive the bilinear form a SV ( · , · ) for the general diffusion SV model in ( 9.11 ),
( 9.18 ) and give its weak formulation. The operator
A + A η
r in ( 9.18 ) can be
written as (compare with ( 9.19 ))
SV f )(z)
