Higher-order semi-implicit Taylor schemes for Itô stochastic differential equations

摘要

The paper considers the derivation of families of semi-implicit schemes of weak order N=3.0 (general case) and N=4.0 (additive noise case) for the numerical solution of Itô stochastic differential equations. The degree of implicitness of the schemes depends on the selection of N parameters which vary between 0 and 1 and the families contain as particular cases the 3.0 and 4.0 weak order explicit Taylor schemes. Since the implementation of the multiple integrals that appear in these theoretical schemes is difficult, for the applications they are replaced by simpler random variables, obtaining simplified schemes. In this way, for the multidimensional case with one-dimensional noise, we present an infinite family of semi-implicit simplified schemes of weak order 3.0 and for the multidimensional case with additive one-dimensional noise, we give an infinite family of semi-implicit simplified schemes of weak order 4.0. The mean-square stability of the 3.0 family is analyzed, concluding that, as in the deterministic case, the stability behavior improves when the degree of implicitness grows. Numerical experiments confirming the theoretical results are shown.
