Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2016 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

"We propose to study stochastic (classical and partial) differential equations and various topics of stochastic analysis, with particular focus on the interplay with T. Lyons' rough path theory:1) There is deep link, due to P. Malliavin, between the theory of hypoelliptic second order partial differential operators and certain smoothness properties of diffusion processes, constructed via stochastic differential equations. There is increasing evidence (F. Baudoin, M. Hairer &) that a Markovian (=PDE) structure is dispensable and that Hoermander type results are a robust feature of stochastic differential equations driven by non-degenerate Gaussian processes; many pressing questions have thus appeared.2) We return to the works of P.L. Lions and P. Souganidis (1998-2003) on a path-wise theory of fully non-linear stochastic partial differential equations in viscosity sense. More specifically, we propose a rough path-wise theory for such equations. This would in fact combine the best of two worlds (the stability properties of viscosity solutions vs. the smoothness of the Ito-map in rough path metrics) to the common goal of the analysis of stochastic partial differential equations. On a related topic, we have well-founded hope that rough paths are the key to make the duality formulation for control problems a la L.C.G. Rogers (2008) work in a continuous setting.3) Rough path methods should be studied in the context of (not necessarily continuous) semi-martingales, bridging the current gap between classical stochastic integration and its rough path counterpart. Related applications are far-reaching, and include, as conjectured by J. Teichmann, Donsker type results for the cubature tree (Lyons-Victoir s powerful alternative to Monte Carlo)."
