Nonstandard Martingales, Markov Chains and the Heat Equation

Tristram de Piro

Published 2017-04-15Version 1

We construct a nonstandard martingale from a discrete Markov chain. This is shown to be useful for solving the heat equation with a non smooth initial condition. We show that the nonstandard solution to the heat equation with a smooth initial condition specialises to the classical solution.
