Content
1. Discrete time stochastic processes. Generalities, asymptotic, invariant and exchangeable sigma-algebra's. Stopping times and hitting times.
2. Martingales, sub-martingales and super-martingales. Optional stopping theorems, almost sure and in mean convergences. Inverse martingales, strong law of large numbers, 0-1 laws of Kolmogorov and Hewitt-Savage.
3. Stationary processes. Ergodic theorem, almost surely invariant sigma-algebra, almost sure and in mean convergences. Recurrence theorems of Poincaré.
4. Exchangeable processes. Almost surely exchangeable sigma-algebra, De Finetti's theorem, representation of an exchangeable process as a conditionally i.i.d. process.
5. Conditionally i.i.d. processes. Identification and almost sure equality between the invariant and the conditioning sigma-algebra. Optional stopping theorems and hitting times.
6. Conditional Markov processes. Strong Markov property. Homogeneous and stationary Markov processes. Characterization of the invariant sigma-algebra and ergodicity conditions.
7. Regular Markov processes. Stationary initial distribution, ergodicity and Dublin condition. Ergodic theorems for a non-stationary Markov process.
Methods
The course is given in two hours lectures during 14 weeks.
