This book gives a comprehensive introduction to numerical methods and analysis of stochastic processes, random fields and stochastic differential equations, and offers graduate students and researchers powerful tools for understanding uncertainty quantification for risk analysis. Coverage includes traditional stochastic ODEs with white noise forcing, strong and weak approximation, and the multi-level Monte Carlo method. Later chapters apply the theory of random fields to the numerical solution of elliptic PDEs with correlated random data, discuss the Monte Carlo method, and introduce stochastic Galerkin finite-element methods. Finally, stochastic parabolic PDEs are developed. Assuming little previous exposure to probability and statistics, theory is developed in tandem with state-of-the-art computational methods through worked examples, exercises, theorems and proofs. The set of MATLAB codes included (and downloadable) allows readers to perform computations themselves and solve the test problems discussed. Practical examples are drawn from finance, mathematical biology, neuroscience, fluid flow modelling and materials science.

Now in its second edition, this book gives a systematic and self-contained presentation of basic results on stochastic evolution equations in infinite dimensional, typically Hilbert and Banach, spaces. In the first part the authors give a self-contained exposition of the basic properties of probability measure on separable Banach and Hilbert spaces, as required later; they assume a reasonable background in probability theory and finite dimensional stochastic processes. The second part is devoted to the existence and uniqueness of solutions of a general stochastic evolution equation, and the third concerns the qualitative properties of those solutions. Appendices gather together background results from analysis that are otherwise hard to find under one roof. This revised edition includes two brand new chapters surveying recent developments in the area and an even more comprehensive bibliography, making this book an essential and up-to-date resource for all those working in stochastic differential equations.

This book studies the existence and uniqueness of solutions to parabolic-type equations with irregular coefficients and/or initial conditions. It elaborates on the DiPerna-Lions theory of renormalized solutions to linear transport equations and related equations, and also examines the connection between the results on the partial differential equation and the well-posedness of the underlying stochastic/ordinary differential equation.

Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) model the evolution in time of spatially extended systems subject to a random driving. Recent years have witnessed tremendous progress in the theory of so-called singular SPDEs. These equations feature a singular, distribution-valued driving term, a typical example being spacetime white noise, which makes them ill-posed as such. In many cases, it is however possible to make sense of these equations by applying a so-called renormalisation procedure, initially introduced in quantum field theory. This book gives a largely self-contained exposition of the subject of regular and singular SPDEs in the particular case of the Allen-Cahn equation, which models phase separation. Properties of the equation are discussed successively in one, two and three spatial dimensions, allowing to introduce new difficulties of the theory in an incremental way. In addition to existence and uniqueness of solutions, aspects of long-time dynamics such as invariant measures and metastability are discussed. A large part of the last chapter, about the three-dimensional case, is dedicated to the theory of regularity structures, which has been developed by Martin Hairer and co-authors in the last years, and allows to describe a large class of singular SPDEs. --
