Abstract

Solutions of stochastic differential equations having differentials of bounded variation processes on the right-hand side can be defined by means of Lebesgue-Stieltjes integrals or by continuous extension of Stieltjes integrals. Both solutions are compared here and formulas that extend the Wong-Zakai theorem are obtained.
