- This course is the foundation course for all further studies in probability theory and stochastics. We will further develop the theory of discrete martingales (started in the course on probability theory for BSc), discuss the CLT and then move on to Brownian motion.
- You will regularly get problems for solution, problems and full solutions will appear on OPAL. A random selection of these problems will serve as a basis for the oral exam at the end of the course.
- Prerequisites: Measure & Integration (as in Ba-AN30) and BSc-level probability (as in ST-10). Alternatively, Chapters I-VII and IX.38-40 in my lecture notes Measure, Integral, Probability & Processes (see below).
