The SD numerical method was originally designed mainly to reproduce qualitative properties of nonlinear stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The strong convergence property of the SD method has been proved, but except for certain classes of SDEs, the order of the method was not studied. We study the order of L2-convergence and show that it can be arbitrarily close to 1/2.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-01-21T12:39:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60H10", "60H35", "65C20", "65C30", "65J15", "65L20" ], "keywords": [ "convergence rates", "semi-discrete method", "nonlinear stochastic differential equations", "strong convergence property", "sd method" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
