Stochastic Analysis is the branch of mathematics whose objective is the study of Stochastic processes with non-differentiable paths. One of the basic tools is the stochastic integral of Ito via which stochastic differential equations are defined. Stochastic differential equations are used to model and study random phenomena evolving in continuous time. Stochastic analysis has applications in areas as physics and finance. The aim of the course is to introduce the students to the basic notions, tools and applications of Stochastic Analysis. After the course the students will know:

Syllabus
Basic notions of stochastic processes in discrete and continuous time: Definition, notions of equality, distributions of stochastic processes, processes with continuous paths. Filtrations, stopping times, conditional expectation. Fundamental classes of stochastic processes: Martingales, Levy processes, Markov processes, transition probabilities and generators. Brownian motion: Definition, existence and uniqueness, basic properties (e.g.~analytic properties of paths, reflection principle, strong Markov property, relation with the heat equation), martingales related to Brown motion and stopping times. Stochastic calculus: Construction of the Ito integral with respect to Brownian motion, the integral as a stochastic process, Ito's formula. Stochastic differential equations (SDE), existence and uniqueness, solutions of some special SDE. Applications to PDE: Harmonic functions and the exit problem for Brownian motion, probabilistic interpretation of solutions, Feynman-Kac formula. The Laplace operator as the generator of Brownian motion. Ito processes and their generator. Applications in financial mathematics: Portfolios and arbitrage, European options, Black-Scholes formula.
