	PPUR - Malliavin Calculus
		Malliavin calculus is a stochastic calculus of variations on the Wiener space.
		On the applied level, Malliavin calculus is used, for example, in the study by probabilistic methods of mathematical models in finance.
		The first five chapters are devoted to an introduction of the calculus itself, based on a general Gaussian space.

	Stochastic calculus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stochastic calculus is a branch of mathematics that operates on stochastic processes.
		The best-known stochastic process to which stochastic calculus is applied is the Wiener process (named in honor of Norbert Wiener), which is used for modelling Brownian motion as described by Albert Einstein and other physical diffusion processes in space of particles subject to random forces.
		The main flavours of stochastic calculus are the Itô calculus and its variational relative the Malliavin calculus.

		The original Stochastic Calculus of Variations, now called the Malliavin calculus, was developed by Paul Malliavin in 1976 [76].
		From the beginning of the nineties, applications of the Malliavin calculus in finance have appeared : In 1991 Karatzas and Ocone showed how the Malliavin calculus, as further developed by Ocone and others, could be used in the computation of hedging portfolios in complete markets [78].
		Moreover, in the case when the additional information of the insider is generated by adding the information about the value of one extra random variable, the Malliavin calculus can be used to find explicitly the optimal portfolio of an insider for a utility optimization problem with logarithmic utility.

		Calculus is a central branch of mathematics, developed from algebra and geometry, and built on two major complementary ideas.
		In mathematics, the derivative is one of the two central concepts of calculus.
		In calculus, and more generally in mathematical analysis, integration by parts is a rule that transforms the integral of products of functions into other, possibly simpler, integrals.

		It may be regarded as a stochastic distribution theory which, combined with the Wick product, extends the classical Itô calculus, both to the anticipating case (Skorohod integrals) and to the multi-parameter case (random fields).
		Like the classical distribution theory of Laurent Schwartz, which is useful in the study of deterministic PDEs, the white noise theory is useful in the study of SPDEs.
		· In the second part of the lectures we introduce the Malliavin calculus in a white noise context, again first for Brownian motion and then for a general Lévy process, and we give some applications to mathematical finance.

		In order to treat continuous time stochastic processes, we use the Malliavin calculus, and outline three methodologies: (1) asymptotic expansion of generalized Wiener functionals (2) asymptotic expansion for martingales (global approach) (3) asymptotic expansion for mixing processes (local approach).
		We will discuss applications of the third method to higher-order statistical inference.
