Smooth first-passage densities for one-dimensional diffusions
Keyword(s):
The purpose of this paper is to show that smoothness conditions on the diffusion and drift coefficient of a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation imply the existence and smoothness of a first-passage density.In order to be able to prove this, we shall show that Brownian motion conditioned to first hit a point at a specified time has the same distribution as a Bessel (3)-process with changed time scale.
