Weak backward error analysis for Langevin equation

In [56] , We consider numerical approximations of stochastic Langevin equations by implicit methods. We show a weak backward error analysis result in the sense that the generator associated with the numerical solution coincides with the solution of a modified Kolmogorov equation up to high order terms with respect to the stepsize. This implies that every measure of the numerical scheme is close to a modified invariant measure obtained by asymptotic expansion. Moreover, we prove that, up to negligible terms, the dynamic associated with the implicit scheme considered is exponentially mixing.
