Abstract

Improved simulation schemes for the evaluation of rst passage times through boundaries for one dimensional di¤usion processes can be obtained taking into account possible crossings that occur inside each simulation inter- val. Approximated evaluations for the probabilities of such events are proposed and the error connected with their use in a simulation algorithm is discussed. Two examples are nally given to illustrate the features of the method.
