Weak convergence of Galerkin approximations of stochastic partial differential equations driven by additive Lévy noise (1603.02422v1)

Abstract: This work considers weak approximations of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) driven by L\'evy noise. The SPDEs at hand are parabolic with additive noise processes. A weak-convergence rate for the corresponding Galerkin approximation is derived. The convergence result is derived by use of the Malliavin derivative rather then the common approach via the Kolmogorov backward equation.
