Interest rate models and Whittaker functions

Abstract

I present the technique which can analyse some interest rate models: Constantinides-Ingersoll, CIR-model, geometric CIR and Geometric Brownian Motion. All these models have the unified structure of Whittaker function. The main focus of this text is closed-form solutions of the zero-coupon bond value in these models. In text I emphasize the specific details of mathematical methods of their determination such as Laplace transform and hypergeometric functions.
