Stochastic semi‐discretization for linear stochastic delay differential equations

Abstract

SummaryAn efficient numerical method is presented to analyze the moment stability and stationary behavior of linear stochastic delay differential equations. The method is based on a special kind of discretization technique with respect to the past effects. The resulting approximate system is a high dimensional linear discrete stochastic mapping. The convergence properties of the method is demonstrated with the help of the stochastic Hayes equation and the stochastic delayed oscillator.
