文摘The solutions of the following bilinear stochastic differential equation are studied [GRAPHICS] where A(t)(k), B-t are (deterministic) continuous matrix-valued functions of t and w(1) (t),..., w(m) (t) are m independent standard Brownian motions. Conditions are given such that the solution is positive if the initial condition is positive. The equation the most probable path must satisfy is also derived and applied to a mathematical finance problem.
