Abstract

In this paper, an application of the Stochastic Mellin Transforms (SMTs) in determination of the probability distribution functions (PDFs) of the Stochastic Volatility (SV) models is proposed. In that aim, three basic SV time series with Gaussian innovations have been considered, and their PDFs were obtained by using the inverse SMT formula.
