On approximation of solutions of stochastic delay differential equations via randomized Euler scheme.

We investigate existence, uniqueness and approximation of solutions to stochastic delay differential equations (SDDEs) under Carathéodory-type drift coefficients. Moreover, we also assume that both drift f = f (t , x , z) and diffusion g = g (t , x , z) coefficient are Lipschitz continuous with respect to the space variable x , but only Hölder continuous with respect to the delay variable z. We provide a construction of randomized Euler scheme for approximation of solutions of Carathéodory SDDEs, and investigate its upper error bound. Finally, we report results of numerical experiments that confirm our theoretical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
