Content

This is the second course on stochastic analysis. It will cover a selection of advanced topics. Currently, the plan is to cover:

  • One-dimensional diffusions, speed measures, and the trap model
  • Lévy processes
  • Extreme values and Poisson point processes
  • Functional limit theorems for sums of independent random variables
  • Extensions to sums of dependent random variables and applications to random walks in random environments

There are preliminary lecture notes for this course which also contain references for further reading.

Prerequisites: The course will assume knowledge in probability theory based on the courses Stochastic Processes and Introduction to Stochastic Analysis. The material coverd in the course Markov Processes is not required.
