A Gaussian short rate model with Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process dynamics under the chosen pricing measure. For , its unit zero-coupon bond value is , where , and
Solve the linear stochastic differential equation, integrate over future time, and use the exponential moment of the resulting Gaussian integral to obtain this price. Its Gaussian law permits negative short rates.

The Vasicek model is a popular mathematical model used in finance and economics to describe the dynamics of interest rates, as well as asset prices. Developed by Oldrich Vasicek in 1977, the model is particularly noted for its ability to capture the mean-reverting behavior of interest rates, which is a common characteristic observed in real-world financial markets. ### Key Features of the Vasicek Model 1.
