Heterogeneity. Stochastic Calculus: Introduction . Although . stochastic . and ordinary calculus share many common properties, there are fundamental differences. The probabilistic nature of stochastic processes distinguishes them from the deterministic functions associated with ordinary calculus. Since stochastic differential equations so frequently involve Brownian motion, second order terms in the Taylor series expansion of functions become important, in contrast to ordinary calculus where they can be ignored. . .
