Abstract We study the strong convergence order of the Euler–Maruyama (EM) scheme for scalar stochastic differential equations with additive noise and irregular drift. We provide a general framework for the error analysis by reducing it to a weighted quadrature problem for irregular functions of Brownian motion. Assuming Sobolev–Slobodeckij-type regularity of order $\kappa \in (0,1)$ for the nonsmooth part of the drift, our analysis of the quadrature problem yields the convergence order $\min \{3/4,(1+\kappa )/2\}-\epsilon$ for the equidistant EM scheme (for arbitrarily small $\epsilon>0$). The cut-off of the convergence order at $3/4$ can be overcome by using a suitable nonequidistant discretization, which yields the strong convergence order of $(1+\kappa )/2-\epsilon$ for the corresponding EM scheme.

In this paper, we derive fully implementable first-order time-stepping schemes for McKean–Vlasov stochastic differential equations, allowing for a drift term with super-linear growth in the state component. We propose Milstein schemes for a time-discretized interacting particle system associated with the McKean–Vlasov equation and prove strong convergence of order 1 and moment stability, taming the drift if only a one-sided Lipschitz condition holds. To derive our main results on strong convergence rates, we make use of calculus on the space of probability measures with finite second-order moments. In addition, numerical examples are presented which support our theoretical findings.
