Symplectic Integration of Stochastic Hamiltonian Systems

This book provides an accessible overview concerning the stochastic numerical methods inheriting long-time dynamical behaviours of finite and infinite-dimensional stochastic Hamiltonian systems. The long-time dynamical behaviours under study include symplectic structure, invariants, ergodicity and invariant measure. The emphasis is placed on the systematic construction and the probabilistic superiority of stochastic symplectic methods, which preserve the geometric structure of the stochastic flow of stochastic Hamiltonian systems. The problems considered in this book are related to several fascinating research hotspots: numerical analysis, stochastic analysis, ergodic theory, stochastic ordinary and partial differential equations, and rough path theory. This book will appeal to researchers who are interested in these topics.

Jialin Hong is a professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He obtained his Ph.D. in 1994 at Jilin University. He works in various directions including structure-preserving algorithms for dynamical systems involving symplectic and multi-symplectic methods for Hamiltonian ODEs and PDEs, Lie group methods and applications, numerical dynamics including chaos, bifurcations for discrete systems, numerical methods for stochastic ordinary differential systems, stochastic partial differential equations and backward stochastic differential equations, almost periodic dynamical systems, and ergodic theory.
