MATH-450 / 5 credits

Teacher: Blumenthal Adrian

Language: English


Summary

In this course we will introduce and study numerical integrators for stochastic differential equations. These numerical methods are important for many applications.

Content

Learning Prerequisites

Recommended courses

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the course, the student must be able to:

  • Analyze the convergence and the stability properties of stochastiques numerical methods
  • Implement numerical methods for solving stochastic differential equations
  • Identify and understand the mathematical modeling of stochastic processes
  • Manipulate Ito calculus to be able to perfom computation with stochastic differential equations
  • Choose an appropriate numerical method to solve stochastic differential equations
