The notion of transportation distance on the set of Levy kernels introduced by Kosenkova and Kulik yields a natural and statistically tractable upper bound on the noise sensitivity. This extends recent results for the additive case in terms of coupling distances to the multiplicative case. The strength of this notion is shown in a statistical implementation for simulations and the example of a benchmark time series in paleoclimate.}, language = {en} } @article{GairingHoegeleKosenkovaetal.2015, author = {Gairing, Jan and H{\"o}gele, Michael and Kosenkova, Tetiana and Kulik, Alexei Michajlovič}, title = {Coupling distances between Levy measures and applications to noise sensitivity of SDE}, series = {Stochastics and dynamic}, volume = {15}, journal = {Stochastics and dynamic}, number = {2}, publisher = {World Scientific}, address = {Singapore}, issn = {0219-4937}, doi = {10.1142/S0219493715500094}, pages = {25}, year = {2015}, abstract = {We introduce the notion of coupling distances on the space of Levy measures in order to quantify rates of convergence towards a limiting Levy jump diffusion in terms of its characteristic triplet, in particular in terms of the tail of the Levy measure.
