The author studies unspanned stochastic volatility (USV) as well as Random Fields (RF) to model the dynamics of entire yield curves. The USV models postulate a correlation between the bond price dynamics and the subordinated stochastic volatility process, while the RF models allow for a deterministic correlation structure between bond prices of different terms. The author shows how fast and accurate pricing can be achieved by either running a Fractional Fourier Transform or by an Integrated Edgeworth Expansion approach. The author also include the relevant Matlab code.
