Branched rough paths, defined as paths with values in the character group of the Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}_\mathrm{CK}$, constitute integration theories that may fail to satisfy the usual integration by parts identity. Using…

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…

Using fractional calculus we define integrals of the form $% \int_{a}^{b}f(x_{t})dy_{t}$, where $x$ and $y$ are vector-valued H\"{o}lder continuous functions of order $\displaystyle \beta \in (\frac13, \frac12)$ and $f$ is a continuously…

Path integrals are a central tool when it comes to describing quantum or thermal fluctuations of particles or fields. Their success dates back to Feynman who showed how to use them within the framework of quantum mechanics. Since then, path…

This paper gives several simple constructions of the pathwise Ito integral $\int_0^t\phi d\omega$ for an integrand $\phi$ and a price path $\omega$ as integrator, with $\phi$ and $\omega$ satisfying various topological and analytical…

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…
