Maximum likelihood estimator of the volatility of forward rates driven by geometric spatial AR sheet

Discrete-time forward interest rate curve models are studied, where the curves are driven by a random field. Under the assumption of no-arbitrage, the maximum likelihood estimator of the volatility parameter is given and its asymptotic behaviour is studied. First, the so-called martingale models are...
