Abstract: Recently, a new class of second order Runge-Kutta methods for It^o stochastic differential equations with a multidimensional Wiener process was introduced by R"o{ss}ler. In contrast to second order methods earlier proposed by other authors, this class has the advantage that the number of function evaluations depends only linearly on the number of Wiener processes and not quadratically. In this paper, we give a full classification of the coefficients of all explicit methods with minimal stage number. Based on this classification, we calculate the coefficients of an extension with minimized error constant of the well-known RK32 method to the stochastic case. For three examples, this method is compared numerically with known order two methods and yields very promising results.
