How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Strong order one-half for drift-implicit Euler–Maruyama

Statement

Assume AC. Let d,m≥1 be finite, T>0, and consider the autonomous SDE with b∈C1(Rd;Rd) and globally Lipschitz σ:Rd→Rd×m. Suppose that for constants μ≥0, C<∞, and an integer q≥1, ⟨x−y,b(x)−b(y)⟩≤−μ∣x−y∣2,∥Db(x)∥≤C(1+∣x∣q). Let ξ have all finite moments and let X be the corresponding global strong solution. For N≥max⁡(1,⌈T⌉), put h=T/N and let Yn be the exact-resolvent drift-implicit Euler–Maruyama values from Drift-implicit Euler–Maruyama with explicit solve-failure status. There is a constant CT independent of N such that Emax⁡0≤n≤N∣Xtn−Yn∣2≤CTh. Moreover, for two such numerical sequences driven by the same Brownian increments but with initial values ξ,ξ~, E∣Yn−Y~n∣2≤eLσ2tnE∣ξ−ξ~∣2, where Lσ is a global Lipschitz constant of σ. The second estimate is finite-time mean-square stability; it does not claim strict contraction when diffusion is present.

[F1]

The backward Euler resolvent exists on all of Rd and obeys ∣Rh(u)−Rh(v)∣≤(1+hμ)−1∣u−v∣. Backward Euler has a globally defined nonexpansive resolvent (contractive when strongly dissipative)

[F3]

The exact SDE satisfies the local Itô integral equation from the definition. For a scalar predictable finite-energy integrand H and each Brownian coordinate Wj, E∣∫abHs dWsj∣2=E∫abHs2ds; the matrix bound needed below is derived coordinatewise in step 1.3.

The Brownian Itô integral satisfies the Lp maximal estimate in Lp maximal moment bound for Brownian Itô integrals and the L1 maximal estimate Esup⁡∣∫HdW∣≤16m E(∫∥H∥F2)1/2 in An L1 maximal bound for finite-energy Brownian Itô integrals.

[F5]

The polynomial derivative bound implies ∣b(x)−b(y)∣≤C′(1+∣x∣q+∣y∣q)∣x−y∣ by integrating Db along the segment from x to y. This is a consequence of the Statement's derivative hypothesis.

[F9]

For each Brownian coordinate Wj, a scalar finite-energy Itô integral has a continuous square-integrable martingale version. Each coordinate of a matrix integral is a finite sum of these scalar martingales, hence is a square-integrable martingale by linearity of conditional expectation. Its grid increments therefore have conditional mean zero given the preceding sigma-algebra. The Ito integral process has a continuous martingale version

First fix N. Since Rh(−hb(0))=0, [F1] gives ∣Rh(u)∣≤∣u∣+h∣b(0)∣. Its continuity, linear growth of σ, and the independent Gaussian increments show by finite induction that Yn is Ftn-measurable and has every finite moment; the same holds for the comparison sequence. Together with [F2] and Hölder [F6], these moments give finite expected square energy for all stochastic integrands below, including products of a grid error and a diffusion difference. These preliminary bounds may depend on N. For two updates with difference en=Yn−Y~n, [F1] and Brownian independence give E(∣en+1∣2∣Ftn)≤(1+hμ)−2E(∣en+(σ(Yn)−σ(Y~n))ΔWn∣2∣Ftn)≤(1+hLσ2)∣en∣2. The cross term vanishes because en and the diffusion difference are Ftn-measurable and ΔWn is independent with mean zero; its covariance is hIm. Iterating and using (1+hLσ2)n≤eLσ2tn proves the second estimate.

Let Xn=Xtn and define dn+1=∫tntn+1(b(Xs)−b(Xn+1))ds,mn+1=∫tntn+1(σ(Xs)−σ(Xn))dWs. The SDE integral equation gives Xn+1−hb(Xn+1)=Xn+σ(Xn)ΔWn+dn+1+mn+1. With Rh=(I−hb)−1, the numerical update and [F1] therefore imply, for en=Yn−Xn, ∣en+1∣≤∣en+ξn+1−dn+1∣,ξn+1=∫tntn+1(σ(Yn)−σ(Xs))dWs. The identity for ξn+1 follows by adding and subtracting σ(Xn)ΔWn. Its conditional mean given Ftn is zero by [F9].

From [F2], linear growth of σ, and the SDE equation, for r=2,4 and s∈[tn,tn+1], E∣Xs−Xn∣r+E∣Xs−Xn+1∣r≤Crhr/2. Indeed the drift increment over either intervening interval has rth moment at most hr−1∫tntn+1E∣b(Xu)∣rdu≤Chr by Hölder and [F10], while [F4] bounds the stochastic increment by CrE(∫tntn+1∥σ(Xu)∥F2du)r/2≤Crhr/2. The polynomial local-Lipschitz estimate [F5], all moments in [F2], and Hölder [F6] then give E∣dn+1∣2≤h∫tntn+1E∣b(Xs)−b(Xn+1)∣2ds≤Ch3. For any finite-energy matrix G, writing each coordinate as a sum over the m Brownian coordinates, the scalar isometry [F3] and ∣∑jaj∣2≤m∑j∣aj∣2 give E∣∫abGs dWs∣2≤m∑i,jE∣∫abGsij dWsj∣2=mE∫ab∥Gs∥F2ds. Apply this to Gs=σ(Yn)−σ(Xs) and use global Lipschitzness to obtain E∣ξn+1∣2≤ChE∣en∣2+Ch2. The constants here are independent of N.

Squaring the error inequality in step 1.2 and applying 2∣en∣∣dn+1∣≤h∣en∣2+h−1∣dn+1∣2 and 2∣ξn+1∣∣dn+1∣≤∣ξn+1∣2+∣dn+1∣2 gives ∣en+1∣2≤(1+h)∣en∣2+2⟨en,ξn+1⟩+2∣ξn+1∣2+(2+h−1)∣dn+1∣2. By [F9], the increments ξn+1 are martingale differences. Summing their unconditional second-moment bound from step 2.1 gives ∑n<NE∣ξn+1∣2≤Ch∑n<NE∣en∣2+Ch; step 2.1 also gives ∑n<N(2+h−1)E∣dn+1∣2≤Ch.

Put vj=Emax⁡k≤j∣ek∣2 for 0≤j≤N, finite by step 1.1. The partial sums Mj=2∑n<j⟨en,ξn+1⟩ form a martingale by [F9]. Written as one Brownian Itô integral, its integrand on (tn,tn+1] is 2enT(σ(Yn)−σ(Xs)), whose expected square energy is finite by the fourth moments in step 1.1 and [F2]. For 1≤j≤N, the L1 maximal bound [F4] therefore gives Emax⁡l≤j∣Ml∣≤32m E[max⁡n<j∣en∣(∑n<j∫tntn+1∥σ(Yn)−σ(Xs)∥F2ds)1/2]. Applying uv≤εu2+(4ε)−1v2 (obtained by expanding (εu−v/(2ε))2≥0) factors out the error maximum and yields, for any ε>0, Emax⁡l≤j∣Ml∣≤εvj−1+CεE∑n<j∫tntn+1∥σ(Yn)−σ(Xs)∥F2ds. By Lipschitzness, ∥σ(Yn)−σ(Xs)∥F2≤2Lσ2(∣en∣2+∣Xs−Xn∣2). Step 2.1 and Tonelli [F10] then give Emax⁡l≤j∣Ml∣≤εvj−1+Cεh∑n<jE∣en∣2+Cεh, since ∑n<j∫tntn+1E∣Xs−Xn∣2ds≤Ch.

Recall vj from step 3.2; e0=0 because both methods start from ξ. Subtract ∣en∣2 from both sides of step 3.1 and sum from n=0 to j−1. Taking the maximum over partial endpoints makes the martingale term max⁡l≤j∣Ml∣; the remaining nonnegative terms have expectation at most Ch∑k<jvk+Ch by the local bounds in steps 2.1--2.2. Use step 3.2 with ε=1/2; since vj−1≤vj, absorb the martingale contribution to obtain vj≤Ch∑k<jvk+Ch. Choose C0≥C so this implies vj≤C0wj for wj=h+h∑k<jvk. Then wj+1=wj+hvj≤(1+C0h)wj and w0=h, so vN≤C0h(1+C0h)N≤C0eC0Th. This proves the first assertion; the stability assertion was proved in step 1.1. AC is exactly [A1].
