This lecture presents recent advances in the theory of errors propagation. We first explain in which cases the propagation of errors may be performed with a first order differential calculus or needs a second order differential calculus.…
We discuss the main stages of development of the error calculation since the beginning of XIX-th century by insisting on what prefigures the use of Dirichlet forms and emphasizing the mathematical properties that make the use of Dirichlet…
The Dirichlet forms methods, in order to represent errors and their propagation, are particularly powerful in infinite dimensional problems such as models involving stochastic analysis encountered in finance or physics, cf. [5]. Now, coming…

We present an application of error theory using Dirichlet Forms in linear partial differential equations (LPDE). We study the transmission of an uncertainty on the terminal condition to the solution of the LPDE thanks to the decomposition…
In order to develop a differential calculus for error propagation we study local Dirichlet forms on probability spaces with square field operator $\Gamma$ -- i.e. error structures -- and we are looking for an object related to $\Gamma$…
We use the language of errors to handle local Dirichlet forms with square field operator (cf [2]). Let us consider, under the hypotheses of Donsker theorem, a random walk converging weakly to a Brownian motion. If in addition the random…

The method of potential solutions of Fokker-Planck equations is used to develop a transport equation for the joint probability of N coupled stochastic variables with the Dirichlet distribution as its asymptotic solution. To ensure a bounded…
The Euler scheme is one of the standard schemes to obtain numerical approximations of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Its convergence properties are well-known in the case of globally Lipschitz continuous coefficients. However, in…
We propose a new scheme for the long time approximation of a diffusion when the drift vector field is not globally Lipschitz. Under this assumption, regular explicit Euler scheme --with constant or decreasing step-- may explode and implicit…
The error on a real quantity Y due to the graduation of the measuring instrument may be asymptotically represented, when the graduation is regular and fines down, by a Dirichlet form on R whose square field operator does not depend on the…
