The purpose of this paper is to assess the rate of convergence in these diffusion approximations. To this end, we extend to these contexts, the functional Stein's method introduced for the Brownian approximation of Poisson processes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-05-04T09:58:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "markov processes", "diffusive limit", "functional steins method", "brownian approximation", "poisson processes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
