Resumo/Abstract: In this talk we will review the recent developments on Functional Itô calculus, FITO in short. Created (or discovered) by Bruno Dupire and published in a seminal paper in 2009, this calculus is a generalization of Itô’s classical theory and allows us to examine models where the history of certain factors plays an important role. We will present the general theory and survey the theoretical unfolding of FITO. As an application, we will show how this theory allows us to consider stochastic control problems with path-dependence influence of the control in the dynamics of the state process.
