Exact numerical simulation of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process and its integral
Abstract
A numerical simulation algorithm that is exact for any time step \ensuremath{\Delta}t>0 is derived for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process X(t) and its time integral Y(t). The algorithm allows one to make efficient, unapproximated simulations of, for instance, the velocity and position components of a particle undergoing Brownian motion, and the electric current and transported charge in a simple R-L circuit, provided appropriate values are assigned to the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck relaxation time \ensuremath{\tau} and diffusion constant c. A simple Taylor expansion in \ensuremath{\Delta}t of the exact simulation formulas shows how the first-order simulation formulas, which are implicit in the Langevin equation for X(t) and the defining equation for Y(t), are modified in second order. The exact simulation algorithm is used here to illustrate the zero-\ensuremath{\tau} limit theorem. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
