The Strong Convergence and Stability of Explicit Approximations for Nonlinear Stochastic Delay Differential Equations

Abstract: This paper focuses on explicit approximations for nonlinear stochastic delay differential equations (SDDEs). Under the weakly local Lipschitz and some suitable conditions, a generic truncated Euler-Maruyama (TEM) scheme for SDDEs is proposed, which numerical solutions are bounded and converge to the exact solutions in qth moment for q>0. Furthermore, the 1/2 order convergent rate is yielded. Under the Khasminskii-type condition, a more precise TEM scheme is given, which numerical solutions are exponential stable in mean square and P-1. Finally, several numerical experiments are carried out to illustrate our results.
