Drift-preserving numerical integrators for stochastic Poisson systems

Abstract

We perform a numerical analysis of a class of randomly perturbed {H}amiltonian systems and {P}oisson systems. For the considered additive noise perturbation of such systems, we show the long time behavior of the energy and quadratic Casimirs for the exact solution. We then propose and analyze a drift-preserving splitting scheme for such problems with the following properties: exact drift preservation of energy and quadratic Casimirs, mean-square order of convergence one, weak order of convergence two. These properties are illustrated with numerical experiments.
