Abstract

The generalized solution of a system of Stratonovich equations is approximated by a discontinuous Galerkin method. A piecewise polynomial approximation is introduced. The convergence and error estimates are proved. The solution of Galerkin equations can be approximated by the solution of a system of equations with an inhomogeneous random part and the simulation of a stochastic integral.
