Lukasz Szpruch (U. of Edinburgh) - Multilevel Monte Carlo for McKean-Vlasov SDEs

Stochastic Interacting Particle System (SIPS) and they limiting stochastic McKean-Vlasov equations offer a very rich and versatile modelling framework. On one hand interactions allow us to capture complex dependent structure, on the other provide a great challenge for Monte Carlo simulations. The non-linear dependence of the approximation bias on the statistical error makes classical variance reduction techniques fail in this setting. In this talk, we will devise a iterative MLMC that will Read more [...]
