A Numerical Approach of Handling Fractional Stochastic Differential Equations

Abstract

This work proposes a new numerical approach for dealing with fractional stochastic differential equations. In particular, a novel three-point fractional formula for approximating the Riemann–Liouville integrator is established, and then it is applied to generate approximate solutions for fractional stochastic differential equations. Such a formula is derived with the use of the generalized Taylor theorem coupled with a recent definition of the definite fractional integral. Our approach is compared with the approximate solution generated by the Euler–Maruyama method and the exact solution for the purpose of verifying our findings.
