The universal equivariance properties of exotic aromatic B-series
share
Exotic aromatic B-series were originally introduced for the calculation of order conditions for the high order numerical integration of ergodic stochastic differential equations in ℝ^d and on manifolds. We prove in this paper that exotic aromatic B-series satisfy a universal geometric property, namely that they are characterised by locality and orthogonal-equivariance. This characterisation confirms that exotic aromatic B-series are a fundamental geometric object that naturally generalises aromatic B-series and B-series, as they share similar equivariance properties. In addition, we classify with stronger equivariance properties the main subsets of the exotic aromatic B-series, in particular the exotic B-series. Along the analysis, we present a generalised definition of exotic aromatic trees, dual vector fields, and we explore the impact of degeneracies on the classification.
