Lecture 8. Rough paths Fall 2017

In this lecture, it is now time to harvest the fruits of the two previous lectures. This will allow us to finally define the notion of -rough path and to construct the signature of such path. A first result which … Continue reading

Lecture 7. Rough paths. Fall 2017

In the previous lecture we introduced the signature of a bounded variation path as the formal series If now , the iterated integrals can only be defined as Young integrals when . In this lecture, we are going to derive … Continue reading

Lecture 6. Rough paths. Fall 2017

In this lecture we introduce the central notion of the signature of a path which is a convenient way to encode all the algebraic information on the path which is relevant to study differential equations driven by . The motivation … Continue reading

Lecture 6. Rough paths Fall 2017

In the previous lecture we defined the Young’s integral when and with . The integral path has then a bounded -variation. Now, if is a Lipschitz map, then the integral, is only defined when , that is for . With … Continue reading
