Popis: | We are interested in the numerical solution of stochastic differential equations with non-negative solutions. Our goal is to construct explicit numerical schemes that preserve positivity, even for super-linear stochastic differential equations. It is well known that the usual Euler scheme diverges on super-linear problems and the tamed Euler method does not preserve positivity. In that direction, we use the semi-discrete method that the first author has proposed in two previous papers. We propose a new numerical scheme for a class of stochastic differential equations which are super-linear with non-negative solution. The Heston 3/2-model appearing in financial mathematics belongs to this class of stochastic differential equations. For this model we prove, through numerical experiments, the “optimal” order of strong convergence at least 1/2 of the semi-discrete method. |
