This paper provides convergence analysis for the approximation of a class of path-dependent functionals underlying a continuous stochastic process. In the first part, given a sequence of weak convergent processes, we provide a sufficient condition for the convergence of the path-dependent functional underlying weak convergent processes to the functional of the original process. In the second part, we study the weak convergence of Markov chain approximation to the underlying process when it is given by a solution of stochastic differential equation. Finally, we combine the results of the two parts to provide approximation of option pricing for discretely monitoring barrier option underlying stochastic volatility model. Different from the existing literatures, the weak convergence analysis is obtained by means of metric computations in the Skorohod topology together with the continuous mapping theorem. The advantage of this approach is that the functional under study may be a function of stopping times, projection of the underlying diffusion on a sequence of random times, or maximum/minimum of the underlying diffusion.

We give a probabilistic interpretation of the Monte Carlo scheme proposed by Fahim, Touzi and Warin [Ann. Appl. Probab. 21 (2011) 1322-1364] for fully nonlinear parabolic PDEs, and hence generalize it to the path-dependent (or non-Markovian) case for
a general stochastic control problem. A general convergence result is obtained by a weak convergence method in the spirit of Kushner and Dupuis [Numerical Methods for Stochastic Control Problems in Continuous Time (1992) Springer]. We also get a rate of convergence using the invariance principle technique as in Dolinsky [Electron. J. Probab. 17 (2012) 1-5], which is better than that obtained by viscosity solution method. Finally, by approximating the conditional expectations arising in the numerical scheme with simulation-regression method, we obtain an implementable scheme.
The strong $L^2$-approximation of occupation time functionals is studied with respect to discrete observations of a $d$-dimensional c`adl`ag process. Upper bounds on the error are obtained under weak assumptions, generalizing previous results in the
literature considerably. The approach relies on regularity for the marginals of the process and applies also to non-Markovian processes, such as fractional Brownian motion. The results are used to approximate occupation times and local times. For Brownian motion, the upper bounds are shown to be sharp up to a log-factor.
The path independence of additive functionals for SDEs driven by the G-Brownian motion is characterized by nonlinear PDEs. The main result generalizes the existing ones for SDEs driven by the standard Brownian motion.
Avikainen showed that, for any $p,q in [1,infty)$, and any function $f$ of bounded variation in $mathbb{R}$, it holds that $mathbb{E}[|f(X)-f(widehat{X})|^{q}] leq C(p,q) mathbb{E}[|X-widehat{X}|^{p}]^{frac{1}{p+1}}$, where $X$ is a one-dimensional r
andom variable with a bounded density, and $widehat{X}$ is an arbitrary random variable. In this article, we will provide multi-dimensiona
We study the limiting behavior of interacting particle systems indexed by large sparse graphs, which evolve either according to a discrete time Markov chain or a diffusion, in which particles interact directly only with their nearest neighbors in the
graph. To encode sparsity we work in the framework of local weak convergence of marked (random) graphs. We show that the joint law of the particle system varies continuously with respect to local weak convergence of the underlying graph marked with the initial conditions. In addition, we show that the global empirical measure converges to a non-random limit for a large class of graph sequences including sparse Erd{o}s-R{e}nyi graphs and configuration models, whereas the empirical measure of the connected component of a uniformly random vertex converges to a random limit. Along the way, we develop some related results on the time-propagation of ergodicity and empirical field convergence, as well as some general results on local weak convergence of Gibbs measures in the uniqueness regime which appear to be new. The results obtained here are also useful for obtaining autonomous descriptions of marginal dynamics of interacting diffusions and Markov chains on sparse graphs. While limits of interacting particle systems on dense graphs have been extensively studied, there are relatively few works that have studied the sparse regime in generality.
