Solve the stochastic differential equation
dXt=t2dt+e2tcosWtdWt,
with X0=0 . Compute E[Xt] and var (Xt) . 【解答】Let Yt=e2tsin(Wt) . Consider f(t,x)=e2tsinx and note that
ft(t,x)=21e2tsinx;fx(t,x)=e2tcosx;fxx(t,x)=−e2tsinx.
Using Itô's formula to evaluate dYt , we obtain that
dYt=21e2tsinWtdt+e2tcosWtdWt−21e2tsinWtdt,=e2tcosWtdWt.
From (2.425), it follows that the stochastic differential equation for Xt can be expressed as
dXt=t2dt+dYt.
