Abstract

Let (Xt)t0(X_t)_{t \ge 0} be the solution of the stochastic differential equation dXt=b(Xt)dt+AdZt,X0=x,dX_t = b(X_t) dt+A dZ_t, \quad X_{0}=x, where b:RdRdb: \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb R^d is a Lipschitz function, ARd×dA \in \mathbb R^{d \times d} is a positive definite matrix, (Zt)t0(Z_t)_{t\geq 0} is a dd-dimensional rotationally invariant α\alpha-stable L\'evy process with α(1,2)\alpha \in (1,2) and xRdx\in\mathbb{R}^{d}. We use two Euler-Maruyama schemes with decreasing step sizes Γ=(γn)nN\Gamma = (\gamma_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} to approximate the invariant measure of (Xt)t0(X_t)_{t \ge 0}: one with i.i.d. α\alpha-stable distributed random variables as its innovations and the other with i.i.d. Pareto distributed random variables as its innovations. We study the convergence rate of these two approximation schemes in the Wasserstein-1 distance. For the first scheme, when the function bb is Lipschitz and satisfies a certain dissipation condition, we show that the convergence rate is γn1/α\gamma^{1/\alpha}_n. Under an additional assumption on the second order directional derivatives of bb, this convergence rate can be improved to γn1+1α1κ\gamma^{1+\frac 1 {\alpha}-\frac{1}{\kappa}}_n for any κ[1,α)\kappa \in [1,\alpha). For the second scheme, when the function bb is twice continuously differentiable, we obtain a convergence rate of γn2αα\gamma^{\frac{2-\alpha}{\alpha}}_n. We show that the rate γn2αα\gamma^{\frac{2-\alpha}{\alpha}}_n is optimal for the one dimensional stable Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Our theorems indicate that the recent remarkable result about the unadjusted Langevin algorithm with additive innovations can be extended to the SDEs driven by an α\alpha-stable L\'evy process and the corresponding convergence rate has a similar behaviour. Compared with the previous result, we have relaxed the second order differentiability condition to the Lipschitz condition for the first scheme.
