Learning outcomes

The course contains an introduction to the theory of stochastic differential equations and partial differential equations of elliptic-parabolic type beginning from some classical kinetic models from physics and finance. Prerequirements are the institutional courses of mathematical analysis, in particular the multidimensional differential calculus and the theory of Lebesgue integral.
