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…
When applied to stiff, linear differential equations with time-dependent forcing, Runge-Kutta methods can exhibit convergence rates lower than predicted by the classical order condition theory. Commonly, this order reduction phenomenon is…

Classical convergence theory of Runge-Kutta methods assumes that the time step is small relative to the Lipschitz constant of the ordinary differential equation (ODE). For stiff problems, that assumption is often violated, and a problematic…
