Abstract

In several applications of stochastic analysis (financial engineering, telecommunication networks, ...), it is desirable to model real-world quantities which are non-Markovian, for example because the noise process exhibits slowly decaying auto-correlations and long memory. In this course we will focus on fractional Brownian motion, a prototypical example of non-Markovian process. Such process is a generalisation of Brownian motion with Holder regularity possibly different than 1/2 and it is not a martingale. We will consider large deviations problems, simulation methods and some examples of application.
