The origin of this book lies in an invitation to give a series of lectures on Malliavin calculus at the Probability Seminar of Venezuela, in April 1985. The contents of these lectures were published in Spanish in [245]. Later these notes were completed and improved in two courses on Malliavin calculus given at the University of California at Irvine in 1986 and at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in 1989. The contents of these courses correspond to the material presented in Chapters 1 and 2 of this book. Chapter 3 deals with the anticipating stochastic calculus and it was developed from our collaboration with Moshe Zakai and Etienne Pardoux. The series of lectures given at the Eighth Chilean Winter School in Probability and Statistics, at Santiago de Chile, in July 1989, allowed us to write a pedagogical approach to the anticipating calculus which is the basis of Chapter 3. Chapter 4 deals with the nonlinear transformations of the Wiener measure and their applications to the study of the Markov property for solutions to stochastic differential equations with boundary conditions. The presentation of this chapter was inspired by the lectures given at the Fourth Workshop on Stochastic Analysis in Oslo, in July 1992. I take the opportunity to thank these institutions for their hospitality, and in particular I would like to thank Enrique Cabana, Mario Wschebor, Joaquın Ortega, Süleyman Üstünel, Bernt Øksendal, Renzo Cairoli, René Carmona, and Rolando Rebolledo for their invitations to lecture on these topics. We assume that the reader has some familiarity with the Itô stochastic calculus and martingale theory. In Section 1.1. 3 an introduction to the Itô calculus is provided, but we suggest the reader complete this outline of the classical Itô calculus with a review of any of the excellent presentations of
