Stochastic Calculus for Finance I: Binomial asset pricing model and Stochastic Calculus for Finance II: tochastic Calculus for Finance II: Continuous-Time Models. These two books are very good if you want to apply the theory to price derivatives. Stochastic Differential Equations: An Introduction with Applications Bernt Oksanda.

Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) are at the heart of modern financial modelling, providing a framework that accommodates the inherent randomness observed in financial markets. These equations ...
A stochastic process is a colection of random variables defined on the same probability space. Please explain further what parts of this definition are escaping you.
What's the difference between stochastic and random? There is an anecdote about the notion of stochastic processes. They say that when Khinchin wrote his seminal paper "Correlation theory for stationary stochastic processes", this did not go well with Soviet authorities. The reason is that the notion of random process used by Khinchin contradicted dialectical materialism. In diamat, all ...
An intuitive logical consequence of that interpretation is that the "law" or "underlying mechanism" that determines the stochastic process must be time-invariant. On the other hand, my understanding of the time homogeneous condition is that it explicitly states the time-invariance of the "law" or "underlying mechanism" of the stochastic process.
