Abstract

We develop and analyze a Monte Carlo method for sampling killed anomalous diffusions obtained by time-changing Brownian motion with drift by the inverse of a subordinator. The method targets probabilistic representations of time-nonlocal, including time-fractional, Cauchy--Dirichlet problems on bounded domains. Since inverse subordinators can be sampled exactly in broad classes, while Brownian exit times are generally unavailable in arbitrary domains, we approximate the killed Brownian component by an Euler scheme with discrete boundary detection. We prove a square-root weak error bound with explicit dependence on the Laplace exponent of the subordinator, and derive mean-square and central limit results for the resulting Monte Carlo estimator. A numerical example in the disk and one in a high-dimensional anisotropic shell illustrate the theoretical rates, computation time, and the mesh-free character of the method.

Exact Simulation of Diffusions via Brownian Bridge Range Reconstruction

We develop an exact simulation algorithm for scalar diffusion paths and diffusion bridges when the Poisson potential is unbounded in both tails. The method reconstructs the realized range of a Brownian bridge proposal by sampling its maximum and location, together with the maxima and locations of the two adjacent restr...

Strong error analysis of a stochastic exponential integrator for SPDEs driven by fractional Brownian motion with H<1/2

Fractional Brownian motion provides a useful framework for modeling random phenomena with anti-persistent temporal correlations that arise in applications such as anomalous diffusion, hydrology, finance, and geophysical processes. In this paper, we study a class of semilinear stochastic partial differential equations d...

Analysis and Approximation of Stochastic Multiscale Subdiffusion Driven by Fractional Gaussian Noise

This paper investigates a stochastic multiscale subdiffusion model driven by fractional Gaussian noise, where the multiscale Abel kernel with variable exponent $\alpha(t)\in(0,1)$ is used to capture multiscale and crossover behavior in anomalous diffusion. The main difficulties of this model lie in the complexity of th...

Averaging Principle for Fractional Stochastic Differential Equations Driven by Fractional Brownian Rough Paths

This paper investigates the averaging behavior of a class of slow–fast fractional stochastic differential equations that incorporate two distinct types of memory effects. The slow variable is governed by a Caputo fractional derivative of order α∈(0,1), and is driven by fractional Brownian motion with a Hurst index H∈(1...

Uniform-in-time approximation and convergence of invariant measuresfor the damped stochastic Korteweg-de Vries equation

To quantitatively characterize the long-time dynamics of the periodic damped stochastic Korteweg--de Vries (sKdV) equation driven by additive noise, we investigate the uniform-in-time error estimates for a Lie--Trotter operator splitting approximation. This splitting combines the exact deterministic KdV flow with the e...

Conditioned Brownian motion and local equivalence of path ensembles

We study Brownian motion in R^d conditioned so that the time average of a continuous confining potential remains below a fixed level. On every fixed initial time interval, we prove that the conditioned process converges in total variation to the ground-state diffusion associated with a suitable Schr\"odinger operator....
