Milstein Method
In mathematics, the Milstein method is a technique for the approximate numerical solution of a stochastic differential equation. It is named after Grigori N. Milstein who first published it in 1974. Description Consider the autonomous Itō stochastic differential equation: \mathrm X_t = a(X_t) \, \mathrm t + b(X_t) \, \mathrm W_t with initial condition X_ = x_, where W_ stands for the Wiener process, and suppose that we wish to solve this SDE on some interval of time ,T/math>. Then the Milstein approximation to the true solution X is the Markov chain Y defined as follows: * partition the interval ,T/math> into N equal subintervals of width \Delta t>0: 0 = \tau_0 < \tau_1 < \dots < \tau_N = T\text\tau_n:=n\Delta t\text\Delta t = \frac * set * recursively define for by: |

Nathan Mironovich Milstein ( – December 21, 1992) was a Russian-born American virtuoso violinist. Widely considered one of the finest violinists of the 20th century, Milstein was known for his interpretations of Bach's solo violin works and for works from the Romantic period.

When Milstein was 11, Leopold Auer invited him to become one of his students at the St. Petersburg Conservator ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
