Abstract

Using the concept of envelopes we show how to divide the state space $\RR^2$ of the two-factor Vasicek model into regions of identical term-structure shape. We develop a formula for determining the shapes utilizing winding numbers and give a nearly complete classification of the parameter space regarding the occurring shapes.
