Cubature on Wiener Space for McKean-Vlasov SDEs with Smooth Scalar Interaction

Abstract

We present two cubature on Wiener space algorithms for the numerical solution of McKean-Vlasov SDEs with smooth scalar interaction. The analysis hinges on sharp gradient to time-inhomogeneous parabolic PDEs bounds. These bounds may be of independent interest. They extend the classical results of Kusuoka \& Stroock. Both algorithms are tested through two numerical examples.
