Hi,I have a question regarding the bond pricing formula under the hull white model.If the short rate r(t)=a(t)+y(t), where a(t) is a deterministic function calibrated to the initial term structure, and y(t) follows: dy(t)=-k*y(t)+sigma(t)dW(t) under the risk-neutral formula.I managed to get the bond price under the T forward measure:P(t,T)=(P(0,T)/P(0,t))*exp((sigma^2/(2*k^3))*(-1.5-0.5*exp(-2*k*(T-t))+2*exp(-k*(T-t))+2*(exp(-k*t)-exp(-k*T))-0.5*(exp(-2*k*t)-exp(-2*k*T))))-y*(1-exp(-k*(T-t)))/k), but it seems to generate negative rates while using monte carlo simulation for y under the T forward measure.I wonder if anyone has the right formula for this bond price so that I can look into it. I've been struggling on this one a little bit.Please help, thanks
