Abstract

Let us start this chapter by a general motivation for having simulation schemes. To fix the ideas, we consider a continuous process (X t , t ∈ [0, T]) that takes values in \(\mathbb{R}^{d}\) and a function \(F: \mathcal{C}([0,T], \mathbb{R}^{d}) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) such that \(\mathbb{E}[\vert F(X_{t},t \in [0,T])\vert ] < \infty \).
