This article provides a version of scale calculus geared towards a notion of (nonlinear) Fredholm maps between certain types of Frechet spaces, retaining as many as possible of the properties Fredholm maps between Banach spaces enjoy, and the existence of a constant rank theorem for such maps.

The theory fully takes into account the non-Markovian and non-local character of financial time series. Predi…
