Popis: We obtain non-asymptotic Gaussian concentration bounds for the difference between the invariant distribution $\nu $ of an ergodic Brownian diffusion process and the empirical distribution of an approximating scheme with decreasing time step along a suitable class of (smooth enough) test functions $f$ such that $f-\nu (f)$ is a coboundary of the infinitesimal generator. We show that these bounds can still be improved when some suitable squared-norms of the diffusion coefficient also belong to this class. We apply these estimates to design computable non-asymptotic confidence intervals for the approximating scheme. As a theoretical application, we finally derive non-asymptotic deviation bounds for the almost sure Central Limit Theorem.
