Brownian motion and stochastic analysis

This is a six-week graduate-level course designed for students with a major in mathematics, applied mathematics, physics, or computer science. The course introduces the student to the key techniques to work with Brownian motion, stochastic integration, martingales, and Ito’s formula. The course content includes topics such as Brownian motion, stochastic integral, Ito’s formula and applications.
