Provides theoretical convergence guarantees for MLMC methods applied to a class of jump-diffusion processes with superlinear drift, relevant for computational finance and stochastic simulation.

The authors prove strong convergence of the Multilevel Monte-Carlo algorithm with split-step backward Euler and backward Euler schemes for nonlinear jump-diffusion SDEs with superlinear drift, and confirm results numerically.

In this work, we will show strong convergence of the Multilevel Monte-Carlo (MLMC) algorithm with split-step backward Euler (SSBE) and backward (drift-implicit) Euler (BE) schemes for nonlinear jump-diffusion stochastic differential equations (SDEs) when the coefficient drift is globally one-sided Lipschitz and the test function is only locally Lipschitz. We also confirm these theoretical results by numerical experiments for the jump-diffusion processes.
