%0 Journal Article %T A Numerical Method for SDEs with Discontinuous Drift %A Gunther Leobacher %A Michaela Sz£¿lgyenyi %J Mathematics %D 2015 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s10543-015-0549-x %X In this paper we introduce a transformation technique, which can on the one hand be used to prove existence and uniqueness for a class of SDEs with discontinuous drift coefficient. One the other hand we present a numerical method based on transforming the Euler-Maruyama scheme for such a class of SDEs. We prove convergence of order $1/2$. Finally, we present numerical examples. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.08005v1
