Functional Integral Approach to the Solution of a System of Stochastic Differential Equations

A new method for the evaluation of the characteristics of the solution of a system of stochastic differential equations is presented. This method is based on the representation of a probability density function p through a functional integral. The functional integral representation is obtained by means of the Onsager-Machlup functional technique for a special case when the diffusion matrix for the SDE system defines a Riemannian space with zero curvature. © 2018 The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
