Abstract
In this paper we are interested in fractional stochactic differential equations (SDEs) with a soft wall. What do we mean by such a type of equation? It has been established that SDE with reflection can be imagined as equations having a hard wall. Now, by introducing repulsion instead of reflection, one obtains an SDE with a soft wall. In contrast to the SDE with reflection, where the process cannot pass the hard wall, the soft wall is repulsive but not impenetrable. As the process crosses the soft wall boundary, it experiences the force of a chosen magnitude in the opposite direction. When the process is far from the wall, the force acts weakly. We find conditions under which SDE with a soft wall has a unique solution and construct an implicit Euler approximation with a rate of convergence for this equation. Using the example of the fractional Vasicek process with soft walls, we illustrate the dependence of the behaviour of the solution on the repulsion force.
