The numerical approximation of the mild solution to a semilinear stochastic wave equation driven by additive noise is considered. A standard finite element method is employed for the spatial approximation and a a rational approximation of the exponential function for the temporal approximation. First, strong convergence of this approximation in both positive and negative order norms is proven. With the help of Malliavin calculus techniques this result is then used to deduce weak convergence rates for the class of twice continuously differentiable test functions with polynomially bounded derivatives. Under appropriate assumptions on the parameters of the equation, the weak rate is found to be essentially twice the strong rate. This extends earlier work by one of the authors to the semilinear setting. Numerical simulations illustrate the theoretical results.

We consider a Markov process X in a Hilbert space H, solution of a semilinear stochastic evolution equation driven by an infinite-dimensional Wiener process, occurring in the equation as an additive noise. Using techniques of the Malliavin calculus, under suitable assumptions, we prove an integration by parts formula for the transition probabilities νt, t>0 (the laws of Xt). We deduce results on differentiability (i.e. existence of logarithmic derivatives) of νt along a set of directions h∈H which can be described in terms of the coefficients of the equation. The general results are then applied to various classes of non linear stochastic partial differential equations and systems.

We investigate the existence of a solution to the abstract stochastic evolution equation with additive noise: in the case when A is the generator of an n-times integrated semigroup.
