Butcher series appear when Runge-Kutta methods for ordinary differential equations are expanded in power series of the step size parameter. Each term in a Butcher series consists of a weighted elementary differential, and the set of all…

In this paper a set of previous general results for the development of B--series for a broad class of stochastic differential equations has been collected. The applicability of these results is demonstrated by the derivation of B--series…

The Butcher theory provides a powerful tool for analyzing order conditions of Runge-Kutta schemes for ordinary differential equations (ODEs); however, such a theory has not yet been well established for backward stochastic differential…

Runge-Kutta methods are the classic family of solvers for ordinary differential equations (ODEs), and the basis for the state of the art. Like most numerical methods, they return point estimates. We construct a family of probabilistic…

B-series originated from the work of John Butcher in the 1960s as a tool to analyze numerical integration of differential equations, in particular Runge-Kutta methods. Connections to renormalization theory in perturbative quantum field…

The renormalization group method of Goldenfeld, Oono and their collaborators is applied to asymptotic analysis of vector fields. The method is formulated on the basis of the theory of envelopes, as was done for scalar fields. This…

The conditions for a Runge--Kutta method to be of order $p$ with $p\ge 5$ for a scalar non-autonomous problem are a proper subset of the order conditions for a vector problem. Nevertheless, Runge--Kutta methods that were derived…
