| Course description: | Stochastic processes in continuous time. Brownian motion. Poisson process. Processes with independent increments. Stationary processes. Semi-martingales. Markov processes and the associated semi-groups. Connections with PDEs. Stochastic differential equations. Convergence of processes. |
| Text: | There will be no official textbook.
