Stochastic solutions of nonlinear pde's: McKean versus superprocesses

Probability 2012-03-01 v2 Mathematical Physics math.MP

Abstract

Stochastic solutions not only provide new rigorous results for nonlinear pde's but also, through its local non-grid nature, are a natural tool for parallel computation. There are two methods to construct stochastic solutions: the McKean method and superprocesses. Here a comparison is made of these two approaches and their strenghts and limitations are discussed.
