The mathematical theory of stochastic integrals, i.e. integrals where the integrator function is over the path of a stochastic, or random, process. Brownian motion is the classical example of a stochastic process. It is widely used to model the prices of financial assets and is at the basis of Black and Scholes' theory of option pricing.
A stochastic error indicates an error that is random between measurements. Stochastics typically occur through the sum of many random errors.
There are several meanings to the word 'calculus.' The plural for calculus is 'calculi.' There is no plural for the calculus we use in mathematics.
My Calculus class is in third period. Calculus is a noun
Im still taking Integral Calculus now, but for me, if you dont know Differential Calculus you will not know Integral Calculus, because Integral Calculus need Differential. So, as an answer to that question, ITS FAIR
there was no sure answer about who started calculus but it was Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz who founded calculus because of their fundamental theorem of calculus.
A very simple introduction to stochastic calculus and to Black and Scholes' theory of option pricing is:Elementary Stochastic Calculus With Finance in View by Thomas MikoschIf you have a strong mathematical background and want a more sophisticated introduction, a very good choice would be:Stochastic Calculus and Financial Applications by J. Michael Steele

Pierre Molchanov, also known as Pyotr Molchanov, was a Russian mathematician known for his work in probability theory and stochastic calculus. He made significant contributions to the study of diffusions and stochastic processes. He is also known for the Girsanov transformation and the Molchanov-Taylor formula.
Wikipedia states that stochastic means random. But there are differences depending on the context. Stochastic is used as an adjective, as in stochastic process, stochastic model, or stochastic simulation, with the meaning that phenomena as analyzed has an element of uncertainty or chance (random element). If a system is not stochastic, it is deterministic. I may consider a phenomena is a random process and analyze it using a stochastic simulation model. When we generate numbers using a probability distribution, these are called random numbers, or pseudo random numbers. They can also be called random deviates. See related links.
