Abstract
The stability analysis of the numerical solutions of stochastic models has gained great interest, but there is not much research about the stability of stochastic pantograph differential equations. This paper deals with the almost sure exponential stability of numerical solutions for stochastic pantograph differential equations interspersed with the Poisson jumps by using the discrete semimartingale convergence theorem. It is shown that the Euler–Maruyama method can reproduce the almost sure exponential stability under the linear growth condition. It is also shown that the backward Euler method can reproduce the almost sure exponential stability of the exact solution under the polynomial growth condition and the one-sided Lipschitz condition. Additionally, numerical examples are performed to validate our theoretical result.

1. Introduction
Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) have been widely used in a variety of fields, such as physics, chemistry, engineering, biology and mathematical finance, to describe models of dynamical systems affected by uncertain factors. In order to have more realistic simulations for random systems, it is more desirable and efficient to study SDEs with delay. SDEs with delay are named stochastic functional differential equations [] and they act better than SDEs. Hobson and Rogers [] gave a new non-constant volatility model with past dependency in finance. Arriojas et al. [] assumed that the stock price follows a stochastic model with delay. Recently, stochastic models with variable delay have received intensive attention [,,,,] and have been used in many applications in finance, biology, control and stochastic neural networks [,,,]. These types of models are called stochastic pantograph differential equations (SPDEs), and they have received great concern and have been used in different fields of science. The pantograph model was used by Ockendon and Tayler [] to know how the electric current is gathered by the pantograph of an electric locomotive, from where it gets the name.
On the other hand, it is desirable to incorporate jumps into stochastic models for more realistic simulations and data fitting. Thus, jump models are important and play a vital role in describing a sudden change in the system [,]. It is often better to use jump–diffusion models when the stochastic systems are interspersed with some randomly occurring impulses to describe them [,,]. It is also preferable to study SDEs with delay and jump [,]. In this paper, we deal with the stochastic pantograph differential model interspersed with Poisson jumps.
Most of the stochastic pantograph differential equations with jumps have difficulties in their analytical solutions; therefore, numerical schemes have to be used to solve them. There is much research that focuses on the convergence of these numerical methods. For example, Fan et al. [] presented numerical algorithms for solving SPDEs via the Razumikhin technique. Fan et al. [] applied Euler methods on SPDEs and proved the existence, uniqueness and convergence of these numerical schemes. Moreover, Li et al. [] applied the Euler technique on SPDEs and proved the convergence of that scheme.
The stability analysis is another important factor in the numerical analysis. There are two common concepts, namely the mean square stability and asymptotic stability. Guo and Li [] formulated the global mean square stability of the Euler–Maruyama method. Higham et al. [,,,] studied the stability of the numerical techniques for SDEs. Mao [,,] studied the almost sure asymptotic stability of stochastic differential equations with and without delay based on the continuous semimartingale convergence theorem. Rodkina and Schurz [] studied the almost sure asymptotic stability of numerical solutions for linear SDEs based on the discrete semimartingale convergence theorem. Recently, Wu et al. [] studied the almost sure exponential stability of Euler-type techniques for the nonlinear stochastic delay differential equations based on using the semimartingale convergence theorem. Zhou et al. [] investigated the exponential stability for stochastic functional differential equations using the polynomial growth condition. Zhou [] studied the almost sure exponential stability of numerical solutions for SPDEs. This paper extends the previous work which was concerned with the almost sure exponential stability of SPDEs and discusses the almost sure exponential stability of numerical solutions for SPDEs interspersed with Poisson jumps with the help of the discrete semimartingale convergence theorem.
The structure of this paper is arranged as follows. Section 2 gives some important notations and discusses the global and almost sure exponential stability of the analytical solution. The almost sure exponential stability of the Euler–Maruyama method is presented in Section 3. Then, Section 4 discusses the almost sure exponential stability of the backward Euler method when imposing the one-sided Lipschitz condition. Numerical examples are given in Section 5 to validate our theoretical results. Finally, the conclusions are given in Section 6.

The delay argument may not hit the previous time step which appears in the numerical method while dealing with the pantograph delay. This problem is tackled by interpolating the unknown approximate values of the solution to the closet grid point on the left endpoint of the interval containing the delay argument using piecewise constant polynomials.
