Newton's method for stochastic functional differential equations

Monika Wrzosek

Abstract:
In this article, we apply Newton's method to stochastic functional differential equations. The first part concerns a first-order convergence. We formulate a Gronwall-type inequality which plays an important role in the proof of the convergence theorem for the Newton method. In the second part a probabilistic second-order convergence is studied.
