This course gives an introduction to probability theory and stochastic calculus in discrete and continuous time. The fundamental notions and techniques introduced in this course have many applications in finance, for example for option pricing, risk mana ...
In this course, various aspects of probability theory are considered. The first part covers the main theorems in the field (law of large numbers, central limit theorem), while the second part focuses on the theory of martingales and concentration inequalit ...
This course focuses on dynamic models of random phenomena, and in particular, the most popular classes of such models: Markov chains and Markov decision processes. We will also study applications in queuing theory, finance, project management, etc. ...
Machine learning and data analysis are becoming increasingly central in sciences including physics. In this course, fundamental principles and methods of machine learning will be introduced and practised. ...
The aim of the course is to apply the theory of martingales in the context of mathematical finance. The course provides a detailed study of the mathematical ideas that are used in modern financial mathematics. Moreover, the concepts of complete and incompl ...
Introduction to the mathematical theory of stochastic calculus: construction of the Ito stochastic integral, proof of the Ito formula, introduction to stochastic differential equations, Girsanov's theorem and the Feynman-Kac formula, the martingale represe ...
This course provides an introduction to stochastic optimal control and dynamic programming (DP), with a variety of engineering
applications. The course focuses on the DP principle of optimality, and its utility in deriving and approximating solutions to an ...
