Some introductory words.

Overview and history

Rough paths theory was developed by Terry Lyons in the early 1990 in a series of articles.


Rough paths theory and stochastic analysis

Allows for pathwise stochastic calculus in several dimensions (even in Banach spaces), example: Stratonovich SDE, advantage over Ito's theory: strong regularity of the Ito-Lyons map

Brownian motion sample paths seen as rough paths

Lift of a Brownian motion, connection to Stratonovich integration, continuity of Ito-Lyons map may be used to prove support theorem, Freidlin-Wentzel large deviations, Wong-Zakai theorem

Other Stochastic processes

Pathwise stochastic calculus possible for:

Gaussian processes

prime example: fractional Brownian motion, Hoermander theory, application in SPDE theory

Markov processes

Semimartingales

Levy processes

Rough paths spaces

path plus some extra information defines rough path, extra information: iterated integrals, levy-area

Geometric rough paths

rough paths as paths in a Lie-group

Controlled paths

Gubinelli
