Strong convergence rates for backward Euler on a class of nonlinear jump-diffusion problems

摘要

We generalise the current theory of optimal strong convergence rates for implicit Euler-based methods by allowing for Poisson-driven jumps in a stochastic differential equation (SDE). More precisely, we show that under one-sided Lipschitz and polynomial growth conditions on the drift coefficient and global Lipschitz conditions on the diffusion and jump coefficients, three variants of backward Euler converge with strong order of one half. The analysis exploits a relation between the backward and explicit Euler methods.
