| description | In this article, we propose a Milstein finite difference scheme for a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) describing a large particle system. We show, by means of Fourier analysis, that the discretization on an unbounded domain is convergent of first order in the timestep and second order in the spatial grid size, and that the discretization is stable with respect to boundary data. Numerical experiments clearly indicate that the same convergence order also holds for boundary value problems. Multilevel path simulation, previously used for SDEs, is shown to give substantial complexity gains compared to a standard discretization of the SPDE or direct simulation of the particle system. We derive complexity bounds and illustrate the results by an application to basket credit derivatives. Copyright © 2012 by SIAM. |
