Non-asymptotic error bounds for the multilevel Monte Carlo Euler method applied to SDEs with constant diffusion coefficient.

Summary In this paper, we are interested in deriving non-asymptotic error bounds for the multilevel Monte Carlo method. As a first step, we deal with the explicit Euler discretization of stochastic differential equations with a constant diffusion coefficient. We obtain Gaussian-type concentration. To do so, we use the Clark-Ocone representation formula and derive bounds for the moment generating functions of the squared difference between a crude Euler scheme and a finer one and of the squared difference of their Malliavin derivatives.
