The Stochastic Calculus of Diffusion Theory

  • Chapter
Multidimensional Diffusion Processes

Abstract

Let (E, ℱ, P) be a probability space and (β(t), ℱ t , P) a d-dimensional Brownian motion. The purpose of this section is to point out some of the properties that (β(t), ℱ t , P) possesses in common with a much larger class of stochastic processes which we will be calling Itô processes. Since we are going to be giving a completely rigorous derivation of these properties in the more general context of Itô processes, our treatment here will be somewhat informal and proofs will not be complete.
