Rezensionen

"This book gives an introduction to financial mathematics. It presents also some background of mathematical facts necessary for understanding modern finance. ... For the reader convenience, the book contains a detailed contents, a list of figures, a list of tables, a list of simulations, a list of acronyms and a list of used symbols." (Jacek Jakubowski, zbMATH 1409.91002, 2019)

"This excellent textbook is addressed to undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics and finance who want to study the main tools of stochastic calculus and its application to quantitative finance. Also, it can be used as a reference book for practitioners and professionals from the financial industry who want a better understanding of the theoretical aspects of stochastic calculus, and how it can be used in the pricing of financial derivatives." (Carlos Vázquez Cendón, Mathematical Reviews, August, 2017)
