Contents

Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are used for modelling continuous-time random phenomena.

Key elements of the theory of stochastic differential equations are discussed. In addition, an introduction to algorithmic aspects is given. The following topics are covered:

  • Brownian motion,
  • martingales theory,
  • stochastic integration (with respect to Brownian motion),
  • strong and weak solutions of SDEs,
  • stochastic representation of the solution of partial differential equations,
  • classical approximations,
  • stochastic multi-level algorithms.

Literature

  • I. Karatzas, S. E. Shreve: Brownian Motion and Stochastic Calculus,
  • P. E. Kloeden, E. Platen: Numerical Solution of Stochastic Differential Equations,
  • T. Müller-Gronbach, E. Novak, K. Ritter: Monte-Carlo-Algorithmen.

Materials

Further literature will be announced in the lecture; Exercise material is provided.
