Abstract

In this paper, we present a generic methodology for the efficient numerical approximation of the density function of the McKean-Vlasov SDEs. The weak error analysis for the projected process motivates us to combine the iterative Multilevel Monte Carlo method for McKean-Vlasov SDEs \cite{szpruch2019} with non-interacting kernels and projection estimation of particle densities \cite{belomestny2018projected}. By exploiting smoothness of the coefficients for McKean-Vlasov SDEs, in the best case scenario (i.e CC^{\infty} for the coefficients), we obtain the complexity of order O(ϵ2logϵ4)O(\epsilon^{-2}|\log\epsilon|^4) for the approximation of expectations and O(ϵ2logϵ5)O(\epsilon^{-2}|\log\epsilon|^5) for density estimation.
