Strong convergence analysis of spectral fractional diffusion equation driven by Gaussian noise with Hurst parameter less than [formula omitted]

Abstract

We propose and analyze an efficient time discretization for the spectral fractional stochastic partial differential equation with Hurst parameter less than 12. By using variable substitution, the original equation is transformed into a system of equations, which includes a partial differential equation and a stochastic integral equation. Then the time discretization is composed of two parts. We discretize the partial differential equation in time by using a semi-implicit Euler scheme. Integration by parts is used to obtain the approximation of stochastic integral. We show the optimal error estimates of the time discretization in the strong sense. Finally, we provide some numerical examples to verify these theoretical results.
