Weak approximation of averaged diffusion processes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We derive expansion results in order to approximate the law of the average of the marginal of diffusion processes. The average is computed w.r.t. a general parameter that is involved in the diffusion dynamics. Our approximation is based on the use of proxys with normal distribution or log-normal distribution, so that the expansion terms are explicit. We provide non asymptotic error bounds, which justifies the expansion accuracy as the time or the diffusion coefficients are small in a suitable sense.
