We can define the error distribution as the limiting distribution of the error between the solution $Y$ of a given stochastic differential equation (SDE) and its numerical approximation $\hat{Y}^{(m)}$, weighted by the convergence rate between the two. A goal when studying the error distribution is to provide a way of determination for error distributions for any SDE and numerical scheme that converge to the exact solution. By dividing the error into a main term and a remainder term in a particular way, the author shows that the remainder term can be negligible compared to the main term under certain suitable conditions. Under these conditions, deriving the error distribution reduces to deriving the limiting distribution of the main term. Even if the dimension is one, there are unsolved problems about the asymptotic behavior of the error when the SDE has a drift term and $0<H\leq 1/3$, but our result in the one-dimensional case can be adapted to any Hurst exponent. The main idea of the proof is to define a stochastic process $Y^{m, \rho}$ with the parameter $\rho$ interpolating between $Y$ and $\hat{Y}^{(m)}$ and to estimate the asymptotic expansion for it. Using this estimate, we determine the error distribution of the ($k$)-Milstein scheme and of the Crank-Nicholson scheme in unsolved cases.
