Strong rate of convergence for the Euler-Maruyama approximation of SDEs with Hölder continuous drift coefficient

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a numerical approximation of the stochastic differential equation (SDE) $$X_{t}=x_{0}+ \int_{0}^{t} b(s, X_{s}) \mathrm{d}s + L_{t},~x_{0} \in \mathbb{R}^{d},~t \in [0,T],$$ where the drift coefficient $b:[0,T] \times \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}^d$ is Hölder continuous in both time and space variables and the noise $L=(L_t)_{0 \leq t \leq T}$ is a $d$-dimensional Lévy process. We provide the rate of convergence for the Euler-Maruyama approximation when $L$ is a Wiener process or a truncated symmetric $α$-stable process with $α\in (1,2)$. Our technique is based on the regularity of the solution to the associated Kolmogorov equation.
