But this is just the same equation as in the Stratonovich case, excpt for a reduced drift r - ½σ2, in agreement with what wefound using differentials and the Ito lemma.

Summary:

Both ways of treating the problem with the Ito convention (differentials + Ito’s lemma, FP) agree with each other.

Both ways of treating the problem with the Ito convention (differentials + Ito’s lemma, FP) agree with each other.All ways of treating the problem with the Stratonovichconvention (differentials + midpoint correction + Ito’s lemma,finite-τ noise, FP) agree with each other.

Both ways of treating the problem with the Ito convention (differentials + Ito’s lemma, FP) agree with each other.All ways of treating the problem with the Stratonovichconvention (differentials + midpoint correction + Ito’s lemma,finite-τ noise, FP) agree with each other.Ito and Stratonovich problems are different (Stratonovich hasa drift rate larger by ½σ2).
