Book excerpt: L'objectif de l'ouvrage est de présenter de manière moderne et rigoureuse les outils de base des mathématiques financières, branche des mathématiques appliquées. Le but des maths fi est la modélisation, la quantification et la compréhension des phénomènes régissant les marchés financiers._x000D_ L'approche des auteurs est à la fois précise d'un point de vue mathématique et actualisée en intégrant des éléments récents : _x000D_ la gestion actif passif,_x000D_ la duration,_x000D_ la convexité,_x000D_ les produits de taux (les obligations)._x000D_ Le livre souligne ainsi l'imbrication étroite entre les mathématiques financières et la description des marchés financiers. Il montre que la finalité de ces outils mathématiques est de les dédier spécialement à l'intervention sur ces marchés et préalablement à leur compréhension.

Book Statistique math  matique et statistique des processus  Collection m  thodes stochastiques appliqu  es

Download or read book Statistique math matique et statistique des processus Collection m thodes stochastiques appliqu es written by BOSQ Denis and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La plupart des manuels de statistique traitent seulement le cas des variables indépendantes et de même loi. Or, dans les applications, les variables observées sont très souvent corrélées. Les exemples sont nombreux en physique, chimie, biologie, économie, démographie ou finance. Pour combler cette lacune, cet ouvrage étudie la modélisation mathématique des phénomènes statistiques et s'intéresse plus particulièrement à la statistique des processus. Didactique et illustré de nombreux exercices, il comporte trois parties : la statistique mathématique, basée sur la théorie de la décision et le point de vue asymptotique, la statistique des processus à temps discret (processus ARMA) et à temps continu (processus de Poisson, processus de diffusion) et des compléments de probabilités. Statistique mathématique et statistique des processus s'adresse aux étudiants de master et aux élèves des grandes écoles. L'auteur Denis Bosq est professeur émérite à l'Université Pierre et Marie Curie. Il est l'auteur de nombreux articles et livres de recherche en statistique.

Download or read book Stochastic Finance written by Hans Föllmer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-01-28 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to financial mathematics. It is intended for graduate students in mathematics and for researchers working in academia and industry. The focus on stochastic models in discrete time has two immediate benefits. First, the probabilistic machinery is simpler, and one can discuss right away some of the key problems in the theory of pricing and hedging of financial derivatives. Second, the paradigm of a complete financial market, where all derivatives admit a perfect hedge, becomes the exception rather than the rule. Thus, the need to confront the intrinsic risks arising from market incomleteness appears at a very early stage. The first part of the book contains a study of a simple one-period model, which also serves as a building block for later developments. Topics include the characterization of arbitrage-free markets, preferences on asset profiles, an introduction to equilibrium analysis, and monetary measures of financial risk. In the second part, the idea of dynamic hedging of contingent claims is developed in a multiperiod framework. Topics include martingale measures, pricing formulas for derivatives, American options, superhedging, and hedging strategies with minimal shortfall risk. This third revised and extended edition now contains more than one hundred exercises. It also includes new material on risk measures and the related issue of model uncertainty, in particular a new chapter on dynamic risk measures and new sections on robust utility maximization and on efficient hedging with convex risk measures.

Book Portfolio Theory and Arbitrage  A Course in Mathematical Finance

Download or read book Portfolio Theory and Arbitrage A Course in Mathematical Finance written by Ioannis Karatzas and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a mathematical theory for finance, based on a simple and intuitive absence-of-arbitrage principle. This posits that it should not be possible to fund a non-trivial liability, starting with initial capital arbitrarily near zero. The principle is easy-to-test in specific models, as it is described in terms of the underlying market characteristics; it is shown to be equivalent to the existence of the so-called “Kelly” or growth-optimal portfolio, of the log-optimal portfolio, and of appropriate local martingale deflators. The resulting theory is powerful enough to treat in great generality the fundamental questions of hedging, valuation, and portfolio optimization. The book contains a considerable amount of new research and results, as well as a significant number of exercises. It can be used as a basic text for graduate courses in Probability and Stochastic Analysis, and in Mathematical Finance. No prior familiarity with finance is required, but it is assumed that readers have a good working knowledge of real analysis, measure theory, and of basic probability theory. Familiarity with stochastic analysis is also assumed, as is integration with respect to continuous semimartingales.

Book Binomial Models in Finance

Download or read book Binomial Models in Finance written by John van der Hoek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the modelling of prices of ?nancial assets in a simple d- crete time, discrete state, binomial framework. By avoiding the mathematical technicalitiesofcontinuoustime?nancewehopewehavemadethematerial accessible to a wide audience. Some of the developments and formulae appear here for the ?rst time in book form. We hope our book will appeal to various audiences. These include MBA s- dents,upperlevelundergraduatestudents,beginningdoctoralstudents,qu- titative analysts at a basic level and senior executives who seek material on new developments in ?nance at an accessible level. The basic building block in our book is the one-step binomial model where a known price today can take one of two possible values at a future time, which might, for example, be tomorrow, or next month, or next year. In this simple situation “risk neutral pricing” can be de?ned and the model can be applied to price forward contracts, exchange rate contracts and interest rate derivatives. In a few places we discuss multinomial models to explain the notions of incomplete markets and how pricing can be viewed in such a context, where unique prices are no longer available. The simple one-period framework can then be extended to multi-period m- els.TheCox-Ross-RubinsteinapproximationtotheBlackScholesoptionpr- ing formula is an immediate consequence. American, barrier and exotic - tions can all be discussed and priced using binomial models. More precise modelling issues such as implied volatility trees and implied binomial trees are treated, as well as interest rate models like those due to Ho and Lee; and Black, Derman and Toy.
