The first book to introduce pathwise formulae for the stochastic integral, it provides a simple but rigorous treatment of the subject, including a range of advanced topics. The book discusses in-depth topics such as quadratic variation, Ito formula, and Emery topology. The authors briefly address continuous semi-martingales to obtain growth estimates and study solution of a stochastic differential equation (SDE) by using the technique of random time change. Later, by using Metivier-Pellaumail inequality, the solutions to SDEs driven by general semi-martingales are discussed. The connection of the theory with mathematical finance is briefly discussed and the book has extensive treatment on the representation of martingales as stochastic integrals and a second fundamental theorem of asset pricing. Intended for undergraduate- and beginning graduate-level students in the engineering and mathematics disciplines, the book is also an excellent reference resource for applied mathematicians and statisticians looking for a review of the topicSummary: Discrete Parameter Martingales -- Continuous Time Processes -- The Ito Integral -- Stochastic Integration -- Semimartingales -- Pathwise Formula for the Stochastic Integral -- Continuous Semimartingales -- Predictable Increasing Processes -- The Davis Inequality -- Integral Representation of Martingales -- Dominating Process of a Semimartingale -- SDE driven by r.c.l.l.
