We consider a Brownian functional $F=g\bigl(\int_0^T \eta(s) dW_s\bigr)$ with $g \in L_2(\gamma)$ and a singular deterministic $\eta$. We deduce the $L_2$-convergence rate for the approximation $F^{(n)} = E F + \int_0^T \phi^{(n)}(s) dW_s$…

In Monte-Carlo methods the Markov processes used to sample a given target distribution usually satisfy detailed balance, i.e. they are time-reversible. However, relatively recent results have demonstrated that appropriate reversible and…
Determining functionals are tools to describe the finite dimensional long-term dynamics of infinite dimensional dynamical systems. There also exist several applications to infinite dimensional {\em random} dynamical systems. In these…
