1.Course Aims

Modern theory of financial markets relies on advanced mathematical and statistical methods thatare used to model, forecast and manage risk in complex financial transactions. After thepublication in 1973 of the ground-breaking paper of Black and Scholes on the arbitrage pricing ofEuropean call options, it became clear that Stochastic Analysis is an indispensable tool for thetheory of financial markets, derivation of prices of standard and exotic options and other derivativesecurities, hedging related financial risk, as well as managing the interest rate risk.In this course, you will learn the basic concepts and techniques of Stochastic Analysis, such as:Brownian motion, martingales, Ito stochastic integral, Ito's formula, stochastic differentialequations, equivalent change of a probability measure, integral representation of martingales withrespect to a Brownian filtration, relations to second order partial differential equations, theFeynman-Kac formula, and stochastic processes with discontinuities.The course consists of theorems and proofs. The main goal of the course is to provide anecessary mathematical background for MATH5816 Continuous Time Financial Modelling andMATH5985 Term Structure Modelling, rather than to focus directly on financial concepts.

2.Course Description

Modern theory of financial markets relies on advanced mathematical statistical methods that areused to model, forecast and manage risk in complex financial transactions. After publication in1973 of the ground-breaking paper of Black and Scholes on the arbitrage pricing of European calloptions, Stochastic Analysis became an indispensable tool for the theory of financial markets,derivation of prices of standard and exotic options and other derivative securities, hedging relatedfinancial risk, as well as managing the interest rate risk. In this course, you will learn the basicconcepts and techniques of Stochastic Analysis, such as: Brownian motion, Ito stochastic integral,Ito's formula, changes of measures, stochastic differential equations, and their relations to secondorder partial differential equations, and Feynman-Kac formula.Assessment Week Weighting%

The School of Mathematics and Statistics has adopted a number of policies relating to enrolment,attendance, assessment, plagiarism, cheating, special consideration etc. These are in addition tothe Policies of The University of New South Wales. Individual courses may also adopt otherpolicies in addition to or replacing some of the School ones. These will be clearly notified in theCourse Initial Handout and on the Course Home Pages on the Maths Stats web site.
Students in courses run by the School of Mathematics and Statistics should be aware of the Schooland Course policies by reading the appropriate pages on the Maths Stats web site starting at:https://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/currentstudents/assessment-poli...
The School of Mathematics and Statistics will assume that all its students have read andunderstood the School policies on the above pages and any individual course policies on theCourse Initial Handout and Course Home Page. Lack of knowledge about a policy will not be anexcuse for failing to follow the procedure in it.Academic Integrity and PlagiarismUNSW has an ongoing commitment to fostering a culture of learning informed by academicintegrity. All UNSW staff and students have a responsibility to adhere to this principle of academicintegrity. Plagiarism undermines academic integrity and is not tolerated at UNSW. Plagiarism atUNSW is defined as using the words or ideas of others and passing them off as your own.The UNSW Student Code provides a framework for the standard of conduct expected of UNSWstudents with respect to their academic integrity and behaviour. It outlines the primaryPage | 6obligations of students and directs staff and students to the Code and related procedures.In addition, it is important that students understand that it is not permissible to buyessay/writing services from third parties as the use of such services constitutes plagiarismbecause it involves using the words or ideas of others and passing them off as your own. Nor isit permissible to sell copies of lecture or tutorial notes as students do not own the rights to thisintellectual property.If a student breaches the Student Code with respect to academic integrity, the University may takedisciplinary action under the Student Misconduct Procedure.The UNSW Student Code and the Student Misconduct Procedure can be found at:https://student.unsw.edu.au/plagiarism
An online Module “Working with Academic Integrity” (https://student.unsw.edu.au/aim) is a six-lesson interactive self-paced Moodle module exploring and explaining all of these terms andplacing them into your learning context. It will be the best one-hour investment you’ve ever made.

4.Plagiarism

Plagiarism is presenting another person's work or ideas as your own. Plagiarism is a seriousbreach of ethics at UNSW and is not taken lightly. So how do you avoid it?
