Also offered in courses:
- Probability of the course Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
The course introduces basic concepts of Probability Theory, with particular emphasis on its formal description starting from its axiomatization due to A. Kolmogorov. The emphasis will be placed on the formal derivation of the modern Probability Theory starting from the axiomatization of A.N. Kolmogorov. The course aims to provide rigorous probabilistic training which allows the student to master the techniques mathematics at the base of the modern theory of probabilities, and their application in computational-modeling and economic-financial fields. With the same spirit based on mathematical rigor, elements of Descriptive Statistics and Analysis of historical series will also be introduced.
Program
The entire course will be available online. In addition, a number of the lessons/all the lessons (see the course
schedule) will be held in-class.
Discrete probability spaces. Elements of combinatorial calculus. Conditional probability and independence.
Applications: random permutations, percolation.
Discrete random variables and distributions. Independence of random variables. Expectation and inequalities. Notable classes of discrete random variables.
Applications: the law of small numbers, the binomial model in finance, the collector's problem.
Probability spaces and general random variables.
Absolutely continuous random variables. Notable classes of absolutely continuous random variables. Absolutely continuous random vectors. The Poisson process. Normal laws.
The law of large numbers. The central limit theorem and normal approximation.
Elements of stochastic simulation.
Basic notions of inferential statistics: unbiased and efficient estimators. Normal samples. Maximum likelihood estimators.
