The course is a natural continuation of the study of probability theory as a part of mathematical education in Lund University. The aim of the course is to provide introduction into the theory of
stochastic processes. The course gives necessary insight into the theory of stochastic processes
for PhD students in other areas that use stochastic processes in their research. The course is the basic part for further studies in the theory of stochastic processes and stochastic differential equation. With respect to the theory there is no overlap of this course with any other course given at the Mathematical center.

Stochastic integrals of deterministic functions. Shift operators Correlation functions.
Spectral representation. Infinite-dimensional distributions. Kolmogorov Theorem on ex-
tension. Markov moments, martingales. Markov processes, Markov properties and related
operators. Trajectories of Markov processes with continuous time. Infinitesimal operators.
Diffusion processes. Stochastic differential. Ito’s formula.

have developed the ability for mathematical communication orally and in writing
be familiar with basic concepts and methods in stochastic processes
have acquired basic knowledge for further studies in mathematics and probability in particular.

The students are expected to know at least some measure theory and probability theory

The course is part of the main field of studies in Mathematical Statistics at the Faculty of Science. The course is optional at the Second cycle in a Masters degree in Mathematics or Statistics, or even for the doctoral studies. The course is also offered as a single subject course.
