We describe stochastic calculus in the context of processes that are driven by an adapted point process of locally finite intensity and are differentiable between jumps. This includes Markov chains as well as non-Markov processes. By…
We describe the pricing and hedging of financial options without the use of probability using rough paths. By encoding the volatility of assets in an enhancement of the price trajectory, we give a pathwise presentation of the replication of…
The calculation of the decay rate of a metastable state in the path-integral formulation of stochastic processes is revisited. Previous derivations of this rate were achieved at the cost of a step that is difficult to justify…
We study approximations to a class of vector-valued equations of Burgers type driven by a multiplicative space-time white noise. A solution theory for this class of equations has been developed recently in [Hairer, Weber, Probab. Theory…
The main purpose of this work is the derivation of a functional partial differential equation (FPDE) for the calculations of equity-linked insurance policies, where the payment stream may depend on the whole past history of the financial…
We discuss regular and weak solutions to rough partial differential equations (RPDEs), thereby providing a (rough path-)wise view on important classes of SPDEs. In contrast to many previous works on RPDEs, our definition gives honest…
This review provides a pedagogic and self-contained introduction to master equations and to their representation by path integrals. We discuss analytical and numerical methods for the solution of master equations, keeping our focus on…
We study a class of linear first and second order partial differential equations driven by weak geometric $p$-rough paths, and prove the existence of a unique solution for these equations. This solution depends continuously on the driving…
In this paper we establish the pathwise Taylor expansions for random fields that are "regular" in the spirit of Dupire's path-derivatives \cite{Dupire}. Our result is motivated by but extends the recent result of Buckdahn-Bulla-Ma…
We exploit the link between the transport equation and derivatives of expectations to construct efficient pathwise gradient estimators for multivariate distributions. We focus on two main threads. First, we use null solutions of the…
In this note we introduce a new approach to rough and stochastic partial differential equations (RPDEs and SPDEs): we consider general Banach spaces as state spaces and -- for the sake of simiplicity -- finite dimensional sources of noise,…
We study one-dimensional stochastic integral equations with non-smooth dispersion coefficients, and with drift components that are not restricted to be absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. In the spirit of Lamperti, Doss…
Path integrals are a ubiquitous tool in theoretical physics. However, their use is sometimes hindered by the lack of control on various manipulations -- such as performing a change of the integration path -- one would like to carry out in…
The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the path-dependent Stochastic Volterra Integral Equations (SVIEs), in which both the drift and the diffusion coefficients are allowed to depend on the whole trajectory of the…
Several versions of It\^{o}'s formula have been obtained in the context of the functional stochastic calculus. Here, we revisit this topic in two ways. First, by defining a notion of derivative along a functional, we extend the setting of…
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…
Based on an extension of the martingale comparison method some comparison results for path-dependent functions of semimartingales are established. The proof makes essential use of the functional It\^o calculus. A main tool is an extension…
We study the relationship between mixed stochastic differential equations and the corresponding rough path equations driven by standard Brownian motion and fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H>1/2$. We establish a correction…
We consider multi-dimensional Gaussian processes and give a new condition on the covariance, simple and sharp, for the existence of stochastic area(s). Gaussian rough paths are constructed with a variety of weak and strong approximation…
This article introduces the splitting method to systems responding to rough paths as external stimuli. The focus is on nonlinear partial differential equations with rough noise but we also cover rough differential equations. Applications to…
