Approximate properties of stochastic functional differential equations with singular perturbations

Abstract

This work focuses on stochastic functional differential equations (SFDEs) with wide-band noise perturbation, which is a class of actual physical process and has wide application in the modeling of communication and signal system. Using functional derivatives together with martingale methods and weak convergence techniques, this paper examines the asymptotic properties of the underlying systems as the small parameter tends to zero. Based on the techniques, this paper also establishes the average principle for a class of SFDEs with two-time scales. As a special case, this paper also considers a class of integro-differential equations with wide-band noise perturbation and examines its approximate properties. As an example, a scalar stochastic Lotka–Volterra integro-differential system with wide-band noise perturbation is investigated.
