7.6 Solving Stochastic Differential Equations

We briefly mention some results on solving stochastic differential equations.

One type of existence result for stochastic differential equations is the following.

Theorem 7.19

Let b be the n-dimensional Anderson s Brownian motion with filtration {F t } t ?[0,1]. Let

be bounded and measurable. Suppose that the determinant of g is uniformly bounded away from 0, i. e. for some ,

Then for any F 0 -measurable x 0, there is a continuous adapted process x satisfying

Another type is some thing like this:

Theorem 7.20

(Still using the same n-dimensional b and the same filtration.) Let

such that f( ?, s, ), g( ?, s, ) are bounded adapted processes with values in the space of continuous functions and respectively. Then for any F 0 -measurable x 0, there is a continuous adapted process x satisfying

It should be noted that the above gives strong solutions in the sense that the same filtration works for any f, g in the theorem. This is a feature of Anderson s Brownian motion that distinguish it from standard Brownian motion and filtrations. Very often, standard results produce only weak solutions, i.e. the choice of filtration depends on the particular f and g.

For complete proofs and discussions, as well as generalizations, see [Albeverio et al., 1986], [Keisler, 1984], [Lindstr m, 1980] and [Stroyan and Bayod, 1986]. See also [Hoover and Perkins, 1983] for dealing with equations...
