The Euler-Maruyama approximation for the absorption time of the CEV diffusion
A standard convergence analysis of the simulation schemes for the hitting
times of diffusions typically requires non-degeneracy of their coefficients on
the boundary, which excludes the possibility of absorption. In this paper we
consider the CEV diffusion from the mathematical finance and show how a weakly
consistent approximation for the absorption time can be constructed, using the
Euler-Maruyama scheme
