Abstract

For the stochastic differential equation (SDE) which has piecewise continuous arguments (PCAs), is driven by multiplicative noises and its drift coefficients are dissipative, we show that the solution at integer time is a Markov chain and admits a unique invariant measure. In order to inherit numerically the invariant measure of SDE with PCAs, we apply the backward Euler (BE) method to the equation, and prove that the numerical solution at integer time is not only Markovian but also reproduces a unique numerical invariant measure. We present the time-independent weak error analysis for the method under certain hypothesis. Further, we show that the numerical invariant measure converges to the original one with order 1. Numerical experiments verify the theoretical analysis.
