A corresponding notion of differentiability is given. We prove rates of convergence of weak approximation schemes for stochastic (partial) differential equations in these spaces. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Th, 19.05.2011, 18:00, seminar room Argentinierstraße, 1040 Wien, Argentinierstraße 8, ground floor (entry Paniglgasse) Fritz Breuss (WIFO Wien) http://fritz.breuss.wifo.ac.at/ "Structural funds, EU enlargement, and the redistribution of FDI in Europe" (Public Lecture Series Economic Theory and Policy) For further details (including abstracts) see http://www.econ.tuwien.ac.at/events/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------
