Key Concepts

Wiener Process

A Wiener process, commonly known as Brownian motion, is a continuous-time stochastic process that represents the random movement of particles suspended in a fluid. It has stationary and independent increments and continuous paths, serving as a fundamental building block in stochastic calculus and serving as the model for randomness in various physical and financial systems.

Itô Process

An Itô process is a type of stochastic process that can be expressed as the sum of an integral with respect to time (the drift term) and an integral with respect to a Wiener process (the diffusion term). These processes generalize deterministic differential equations to include randomness, making them central in modeling systems affected by random shocks.

Itô's Lemma

Itô's lemma is a fundamental result in stochastic calculus that provides the differential of a function of an Itô process. It extends the classical chain rule to stochastic processes by accounting for the quadratic variation of the process, thus allowing the computation of differentials for functions like powers of the Wiener process.

Stochastic Differential Equations

Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are differential equations in which one or more terms are stochastic processes, typically involving a Wiener process. They model systems influenced by random effects and are solved using techniques from stochastic calculus, with Itô’s lemma being a key tool in their analysis.
