## Abstract Adaptive time‐stepping methods based on the Monte Carlo Euler method for weak approximation of Itô stochastic differential equations are developed. The main result is new expansions of the computational error, with computable leading‐order term in a posteriori form, based on stochastic

✦ Synopsis
A convergence theorem for the continuous weak approximation of the solution of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) by general one-step methods is proved, which is an extension of a theorem due to Milstein. As an application, uniform second order conditions for a class of continuous stochastic Runge-Kutta methods containing the continuous extension of the second order stochastic Runge-Kutta scheme due to Platen are derived. Further, some coefficients for optimal continuous schemes applicable to Itô SDEs with respect to a multi-dimensional Wiener process are presented.

We consider numerical stability and convergence of weak schemes solving stochastic differential equations. A relatively strong notion of stability for a special type of test equations is proposed. These are stochastic differential equations with multiplicative noise. For explicit and implicit Euler
We investigate the accuracy of approximation of E[ϕ(u(t))], where {u(t) : t ∈ [0, ∞)} is the solution of the stochastic wave equation driven by the space-time white noise and ϕ is an R-valued function defined on the Hilbert space L 2 (R). The approximation is done by the leap-frog scheme. We show th
