Hi Goutham,

I am not sure. I have the 8th edition and in this it is chapter 30
(Interest Rate Derivatives: Models of the short rate), section 30.7 A
general tree-building procedure, in particular what is described under
"Second stage", which reads " ... however, we want a tree with finite
dt to match the term structure exactly. We therefore use an iterative
procedure to determine the \alpha's." which is then described in the
following.

Best regards
Peter
