Markovian short rates in multidimensional term structure Lévy models. (English) Zbl 1460.91279

Jakubowski, Jacek (ed.) et al., Stochastic modeling and control. Based on the Simons semester, Warsaw, Poland, January 2 – March 31, 2019. Warsaw: Polish Academy of Sciences, Institute of Mathematics. Banach Cent. Publ. 122, 93-106 (2020).
Summary: We study a bond market model and the related term structure of interest rates in which the prices of zero coupon bonds are driven by a multidimensional Lévy process. We show that the short rate forms a Markov process if and only if the deterministic forward rate volatility coefficients are decomposed into products of two factors where the factor depending on the maturity time is the same for all components. The proof is based on the analysis of sample path properties of the underlying multidimensional process.
