No drift calculation.


e are calculating the expectation MATH where the $K,x,t,T$ are given numbers, MATH is a deterministic function and $W_{t}$ is the standard Brownian motion.

According to the Ito formula ( Ito_formula ) MATH We integrate the above equality over the time interval $[t,T]$ and obtain MATH We introduce the notations $\theta,\sigma$ according to the relationship MATH and write MATH for some standard normal variable $\xi$ .

We proceed with evaluation of the quantity $C_{0}$ : MATH where $d$ is the number defined by the relationship MATH or MATH We introduce the notation MATH and continue MATH

Summary
