Abstract
The standard convergence analysis of the simulation schemes for the hitting times of diffusions typically requires non-degeneracy of their coeficients on the boundary, which excludes the possibility of absorption. In this paper we consider the CEV diffusion from the mathematical finance and show how a weakly consistent approximation for the absorption time can be constructed, using the Euler-Maruyama scheme.
