The research activity of the team is organized around four areas:

• Stochastic Analysis: stochastic differential equations with singular drift, noise regularization, viscosity solutions for path-dependent partial differential equations, McKean Vlasov equations, singular interaction kernels, interacting particle systems, mean fields, backward stochastic differential equations.

• Numerical Probabilities: Multilevel Monte Carlo methods, approximation schemes for stochastic differential equations with singular coefficients and Volterra-type with singular kernels, numerical solutions for stochastic control problems, optimal quantization, stochastic gradient descent-type algorithms.

• Statistics: statistics of processes and random environments, estimation of stationary measures for anisotropic elliptic processes (with or without jumps) and hypo-elliptic processes, statistical learning (machine learning), mean-field analysis on deep neural networks.

• Financial Mathematics: stochastic modeling based on affine and polynomial processes, weak stochastic target problems, optimal transport, applications to quantile hedging problems, filtration enlargements and applications to derivative pricing, stochastic control, counterparty risk and XVA analysis, model risk, liquidity risk, insurance finance, corporate finance, optimal market making, and order books.
