Mathematical Methods for Financial Markets (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Unlike other texts available in the field, this book is written to be accessible to both mathematicians and practitioners

Rather than provide full proofs throughout, the authors give the essence of the argument and then refer readers to the literature whenever the discussion might become too technical.

Rezensionen

From the reviews: "The aim of this book is to explain the fundamental concepts of continuous-time finance ... . This text presents an up-to-date account of the powerful interplay between the two areas, which is accessible yet mathematically rigorous. ... This book is an accessible overview of the relevant sophisticated topics in the theory of processes, serves as an excellent guide through the literature and will doubtless become established as a standard work of reference for practitioners and researchers in the area of mathematical finance." (Aleksandar Mijatovic, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 h) "Mathematical Methods for Financial Markets succeeds to be both an excellent finance textbook and an excellent maths textbook. ... the work examined here is an excellent reading, going well beyond the Hull, that should be advised to all serious students in quantitative finance, and perhaps to a few colleagues who would want to enlarge their filtration about this topic. This is a prodigious encyclopaedia designed by the best authors in the field." (Olivier Le Courtois, Revue de l'Association Française de Finance, Vol. 31 (1), 2010)
