The convergence rate of the weighted empirical measure of the self-interacting process and the invariant measure of MV-SDEs is obtained in the W2-Wasserstein metric. Furthermore, under the condition of linear growth, an EM scheme whose uniformly 1/2-order convergence rate with respect to time is obtained is constructed for the self-interacting process. Then, the convergence rate between the weighted empirical measure of the EM numerical solution of the self-interacting process and the invariant measure of MV-SDEs is derived. Moreover, the convergence rate between the averaged weighted empirical measure of the EM numerical solution of the corresponding multi-particle system and the invariant measure of MV-SDEs in the W2-Wasserstein metric is also given. In addition, the computational cost of the two approximation methods is compared, which shows that the averaged weighted empirical approximation of the particle system has a lower cost. Finally, the theoretical results are validated through numerical experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-04-07T01:54:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "invariant probability measure", "em scheme", "empirical approximation", "convergence rate", "invariant measure" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
