Weak approximations and extrapolations of stochastic differential equations with jumps

摘要

Numerical discretization schemes are developed to approximate functionals of stochastic differential equations with jumps, and the convergence is shown to have an appropriate order. For the Euler scheme and the second order weak scheme, the leading coefficient of their global errors are determined by the stochastic Taylor expansion. Based on the error expression, the extrapolation technique can be applied to get a higher order convergence. Numerical examples are provided to compare various weak schemes and extrapolations.
