Objectives
This course is the natural continuation of "Probability" (Laurea Magistrale). The characteristic arguments are Markov chains and the continuous time martingales.
Teaching methods
Lessons.
Examination
Oral examination.
Prerequisites
The course "Probability" of the Laurea Magistrale. As a consequence, "Stochastic Processes" is not suggested to students of the Laurea Triennale.

2. Continuous time martingales
3. Markov chains
4. Brownian and Poisson processes
5. Ito calculus and stochastic differential equations
