Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the weak convergence rate of Euler-Maruyama’s approximation for stochastic differential equations with low regular drifts. Explicit weak convergence rates are presented if drifts satisfy an integrability condition including discontinuous functions which can be non-piecewise continuous or in some fractional Sobolev space.
