Discrete gradient methods and linear projection methods for preserving a conserved quantity of stochastic differential equations

Numerical methods preserving a conserved quantity for stochastic differential equations are considered. A class of discrete gradient methods based on the skew-gradient form is constructed, and the sufficient condition of convergence order 1 in the mean-square sense is given. Then a class of linear projection methods is constructed. The relationship of the two classes of methods for preserving a conserved quantity is proved, which is, the constructed linear projection methods can be considered as a subset of the constructed discrete gradient methods. Numerical experiments verify our theory and show the efficiency of proposed numerical methods.
