These results generalize a classical scheme of the weak convergence for discrete-time markets to the Black-Scholes model. We give an explicit and direct method of approximation by a recurrent scheme. As an example, an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is considered as a limit model.", keywords = "diffusion approximation, semimartingale, recurrent scheme, financial market, multiplicative scheme, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process", issn = "1232-9274" }
