Our subject of study is strong approximation of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with respect to the supremum and the L_p error criteria, and we seek approximations that are strongly asymptotically optimal in specific classes of approximations. For the supremum error, we prove strong asymptotic optimality for specific tamed Euler schemes relating to certain adaptive and to equidistant time discretizations. For the L_p error, we prove strong asymptotic optimality for specific tamed Milstein schemes relating to certain adaptive and to equidistant time discretizations. To illustrate our findings, we numerically analyze the SDE associated with the Heston–3/2–model originating from mathematical finance.
The dissertation is located in the field of quantizations of certain stochastic processes, namely a solution X of a multidimensional stochastic differential equation (SDE). The quantization problem for X consists in approximating X by a a random element which takes only finitely many values. Our main interest lies in the investigation of the asymptotic behavior of the Nth minimal quantization error of X as N tends to infinity, which incorporates the determination of both the sharp rate of convergence and explicit asymptotic constants. Especially explicit asymptotic constants have been so far unknown in the context of multidimensional SDEs. Furthermore, as part of our analysis, we provide a method which yields a strongly asymptotically optimal sequence of N-quantization of X. In certain special cases our method is fully constructive and the algorithm is easy to implement.
