In this lecture, we will consider various classes of stochastic processes that may differ in their state spaces and underlying index sets with a special focus on Gaussian, Lévy and Markov processes. In summary, the lecture will be divided into three core topics: the construction, the path behaviour and the probabilistic analysis of general stochastic processes.
