Abstract:In light of the recently developed complete GJ set of single random variable stochastic, discrete-time Størmer-Verlet algorithms for statistically accurate simulations of Langevin equations, we investigate two outstanding questions: 1) Are there any algorithmic or statistical benefits from including multiple random variables per time-step, and 2) are there objective reasons for using one or more methods from the available set of statistically correct algorithms? To address the first question, we assume a gener… Show more
