A master equation approach to the numerical solution of option pricing models is developed.

Recent works have derived non-asymptotic upper bounds for convergence of underdamped Langevin MCMC.

We study (backward) stochastic differential equations with noise coming from a finite state Markov chain. We show that, for the solutions of these equations to be `Markovian', in the sense that they are deterministic functions of the state of the underlying chain, the integrand must be of a specific form. This allows u…
