The interest rate dynamics is an important fundamental for valuation more complex structures of interest rate derivatives. The goal of this diploma thesis is to describe the use of models of interest rate for interest rate option pricing. The paper could be logically divided into two parts, the theoretical one and practical one. In the first part the essentials for pricing theory are introduced as risk neutrality, martingales, stochastic differential calculus, and theory of arbitrage. On their basis four basic yield curve models are derived, Vasicek model, model Cox-Ingersoll-Ross , Black-Derman-Toy and two factor Heath-Jarrow-Morton model. Second part provides the analysis of yields of U.S. Treasury bonds with different maturity. At the end CIR model and BDT binomial tree are used for valuation of option on 10 years yield.
