For a Gaussian process $X$ and smooth function $f$, we consider a Stratonovich integral of $f(X)$, defined as the weak limit, if it exists, of a sequence of Riemann sums. We give covariance conditions on $X$ such that the sequence converges…
Let $B$ be a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H=1/6$. It is known that the symmetric Stratonovich-style Riemann sums for $\int g(B(s))\,dB(s)$ do not, in general, converge in probability. We show, however, that they do…
We develop the functional It\^o/path-dependent calculus with respect to fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H> \frac{1}{2}$. Firstly, two types of integrals are studied. The first type is Stratonovich integral, and the second…
In this paper, we study rough path properties of stochastic integrals of It\^{o}'s type and Stratonovich's type with respect to $G$-Brownian motion. The roughness of $G$-Brownian Motion is estimated and then the pathwise Norris lemma in…
The aim of this paper is to establish the weak convergence, in the topology of the Skorohod space, of the $\nu$-symmetric Riemann sums for functionals of the fractional Brownian motion when the Hurst parameter takes the critical value…
We consider the problem of constructing weak solutions to the It\^{o} and to the Stratonovich stochastic differential equations having critical-order singularities in the drift and critical-order discontinuities in the dispersion matrix.
This paper begins by giving an historical context to fractional Brownian Motion and its development. Section 2 then introduces the fractional calculus, from the Riemann-Liouville perspective. In Section 3, we introduce Brownian motion and…
We consider the solution $u(x,t)$ to a stochastic heat equation. For fixed $x$, the process $F(t)=u(x,t)$ has a nontrivial quartic variation. It follows that $F$ is not a semimartingale, so a stochastic integral with respect to $F$ cannot…
We consider autonomous stochastic ordinary differential equations (SDEs) and weak approximations of their solutions for a general class of sufficiently smooth path-dependent functionals f. Based on tools from functional It\^o calculus, such…
A peculiar feature of It\^o's calculus is that it is an integral calculus that gives no explicit derivative with a systematic differentiation theory counterpart, as in elementary calculus. So, can we define a pathwise stochastic derivative…
This paper studies the existence and uniqueness of solution of It\^o type stochastic differential equation $dx(t)=b(t, x(t), \om)dt+\si(t,x(t), \om) d B(t)$, where $B(t)$ is a fractional Brownian motion of Hurst parameter $H>1/2$ and…
We give a new approach to prove the existence of a weak solution of \[dx_t = f(t,x_t)dt + g(t)dB^H_t\] where $B^H_t$ is a fractional Brownian motion with values in a separable Hilbert space for suitable functions $f$ and $g$. Our idea is to…
This paper presents a self-contained new theory of weak fractional differential calculus in one-dimension. The crux of this new theory is the introduction of a weak fractional derivative notion which is a natural generalization of integer…

We present a systematic method for computing explicit approximations to martingale representations for a large class of Brownian functionals. The approximations are obtained by obtained by computing a directional derivative of the weak…
This article proposes a method for forming invariant stochastic differential systems, namely dynamic systems with trajectories belonging to a given smooth manifold. The It\^o or Stratonovich stochastic differential equations with the Wiener…
Consider an It\^{o} process $X$ satisfying the stochastic differential equation $dX=a(X)\,dt+b(X)\,dW$ where $a,b$ are smooth and $W$ is a multidimensional Brownian motion. Suppose that $W_n$ has smooth sample paths and that $W_n$ converges…
We derive It\^o-type change of variable formulas for smooth functionals of irregular paths with non-zero $p-$th variation along a sequence of partitions where $p \geq 1$ is arbitrary, in terms of fractional derivative operators, extending…
