A singular stochastic differential equation
We consider the following SDE:
$$dX_t = 1(X_t = 0) \, dt + 1(X_t >0) \, dB_t, \quad X_0= x > 0,$$
where $(B_t, \, t \ge 0)$ is linear Brownian motion.
Let $\tau: = \inf\{t >0: X_t = 0\}$ be ...

total variation distance between two solutions of SDE
Suppose we have two stochastic differential equations with the same initial conditions:
$$d X_t^1= b_1(t,X_t^1)dt + dW_t$$
$$d X_t^2= b_2(t,X_t^2)dt + dW_t,$$
$X_0^1=X_0^2=x_0$; $W_\cdot$ is a ...

Adiabatic elimination of a variable in a system of nonlinear stochastic ODEs?
If this is too basic for MathOverflow... say the word and I shall move it to Math.SE
First consider this system of ODEs. Say I have two variables $u$ and $a$, following
$$
\dot u = -u + f(a)
$$
$$

Solutions to linear SDE with many noise sources
It is well known how to solve the linear stochastic ODEs with one source of noise
$$dX_t=(a(t)X_t+c(t))dt+(b(t)X_t+d(t))dW_t$$
See, for instance, https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1788853/...

Finding a stochastic differential equation as limit of a discrete stochastic equation
I'm dealing with the following problem:
Choose $Z_0 \in [0,1]$ and define a process governed by the following discrete stochastic equation:
$Z_{k+1}-Z_k=P_k(1-2Z_k)$
where $P_k=0$ with probability $...

General solution to system of stochastic linear differential equations
Assume we are given the system of linear stochastic differential equations
$$dx_i = \sum_{j=1}^n a_{ij}(t) \cdot x_j \cdot dt + \sum_{j=1}^n \sigma_{ij}(t) \cdot x_j \cdot dB_{ij,t} + b_j(t)\cdot dt+\...
