Evaluating Expectations of Functionals of Brownian Motions: a Multilevel Idea

Authors: Fred J. Hickernell, Thomas Müller-Gronbach, Ben Niu, and Klaus Ritter

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9391, Algorithms and Complexity for Continuous Problems (2009)


Abstract
Prices of path dependent options may be modeled as expectations of functions of an infinite sequence of real variables. This talk presents recent work on bounding the error of such expectations using quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms. The expectation is approximated by an average of $n$ samples, and the functional of an infinite number of variables is approximated by a function of only $d$ variables. A multilevel algorithm employing a sum of sample averages, each with different truncated dimensions, $d_l$, and different sample sizes, $n_l$, yields faster convergence than a single level algorithm. This talk presents results in the worst-case error setting.

Lower Bounds and Non-Uniform Time Discretization for Approximation of Stochastic Heat Equations

Authors: Klaus Ritter and Thomas Müller-Gronbach

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4401, Algorithms and Complexity for Continuous Problems (2005)


Abstract
We study algorithms for approximation of the mild solution of stochastic heat equations on the spatial domain ]0,1[^d. The error of an algorithm is defined in L_2-sense. We derive lower bounds for the error of every algorithm that uses a total of N evaluations of one-dimensional components of the driving Wiener process W. For equations with additive noise we derive matching upper bounds and we construct asymptotically optimal algorithms. The error bounds depend on N and d, and on the decay of eigenvalues of the covariance of W in the case of nuclear noise. In the latter case the use of non-uniform time discretizations is crucial.

On the Complexity of Parabolic Initial Value Problems with Variable Drift

Authors: Knut Petras and Klaus Ritter

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 4401, Algorithms and Complexity for Continuous Problems (2005)


Abstract
We consider linear parabolic initial value problems of second order in several dimensions. The initial condition is supposed to be fixed and we investigate the comutational complexity if the coefficients of the parabolic equations may vary in certain function spaces. Using the parametrix method (or Neumann series), we prove that lower bounds for the error of numerical methods are related to lower bounds for integration problems. On the other hand, approximating the Neumann series with Smolyak's method, we show that the problem is not much harder than a certain approximation problem. For Hölder classes on compact sets, e.g., lower and upper bounds are close together, such that we have an almost optimal method.
