An analogue of the Fourier transform will be introduced for all square integrable continuous martingale processes whose quadratic variation is deterministic. Using this transform we will formulate and prove a stochastic Heisenberg…
We develop a non-anticipating calculus of variations for functionals on a space of laws of continuous semi-martingales, which extends the classical one. We extend Hamilton's least action principle and Noether's theorem to this generalized…
We study the asymptotic properties, in the weak sense, of regenerative processes and Markov renewal processes. For the latter, we derive both renewal-type results, also concerning the related counting process, and ergodic-type ones,…
We derive a functional It\^o-formula for non-anticipative maps of rough paths, based on the approximation properties of the signature of c\`adl\`ag rough paths. This result is a functional extension of the It\^o-formula for c\`adl\`ag rough…
Let $d \ge 2$. In this paper, we study weak solutions for the following type of stochastic differential equation \[ dX_{t}=dS_{t}+b(s+t, X_{t})dt, \quad X_{0}=x, \] where $(s,x)\in \mathbb{R}_+ \times \mathbb{R}^{d}$ is the initial starting…
The purpose of these notes is to distribute, mostly without proofs, fundamental definitions and results concerning the theory of semimartingales and stochastic integration. The material serves as a foundational guide for those interested in…
Martingales constitute a basic tool in stochastic analysis; this paper considers their application to counting processes. We use this tool to revisit a renewal theorem and its extensions for various counting processes. We first consider a…
If X is a d-dimensional uniformly elliptic diffusion, with initial law nu, we show that F(X) is a Dirichlet process, whenever F satisfies an integrability condition linking its weak derivative to the coefficients of the diffusion and the…
Suppose that P_{\theta}(g) is a linear functional of a Dirichlet process with shape \theta H, where \theta >0 is the total mass and H is a fixed probability measure. This paper describes how one can use the well-known Bayesian prior to…
We provide criteria for It\^o integration to behave continuously with respect to Skorokhod's J1 and M1 topologies, when the integrands and integrators converge weakly or in probability. The results are novel in the M1 setting and unify…
For given strongly local Dirichlet forms with possibly degenerate symmetric (sub)-elliptic matrix, we show the existence of weak solutions to the stochastic differential equations (associated with the Dirichlet forms) starting from all…

Let the process Y(t) be a Skorohod integral process with respect to Brownian motion. We use a recent result by Tudor (2004), to prove that Y(t) can be represented as the limit of linear combinations of processes that are products of forward…
Let $V\in C^2(\R^d)$ such that $\mu_V(\d x):= \e^{-V(x)}\,\d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\aa\in (0,2)$. Explicit criteria are presented for the $\aa$-stable-like Dirichlet form $$\E_{\aa,V}(f,f):= \int_{\R^d\times\R^d}…
