Putting auction theory to work

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to modern auction theory and its important new applications. It is written by a leading economic theorist whose suggestions guided the creation of the new spectrum auction designs. Aimed at graduate students and professionals in economics, the book gives ...

Stochastic optimization in continuous time

Most of the current books on stochastic control theory are written for students in mathematics or finance. This introduction is designed, however, for those interested in the relevance and applications of the theory's mathematical principles to economics. Therefore, mathematical methods are discussed intuitively and ...

Risk and financial management

mathematical and computational methods

Financial risk management has become a popular practice amongst financial institutions to protect against the adverse effects of uncertainty caused by fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices. New financial instruments and mathematical techniques are continuously developed and introduced in financial ...

New directions in macromodelling

Levy processes in finance

pricing financial derivatives

Financial mathematics has recently enjoyed considerable interest on account of its impact on the finance industry. In parallel, the theory of Lévy processes has also seen many exciting developments. These powerful modelling tools allow the user to model more complex phenomena, and are commonly applied ...

Economics as an agent-based complex system

toward agent-based social systems sciences

In agent-based modeling the focus is very much on agent-based simulation, as simulation is a very important tool for agent-based modeling. We also use agent-based simulation in this book with a stress on the mathematical foundation of agent-based modeling. We introduce two original mathematical frameworks ...

Theory of conjectural variations

This book presents, for the first time, a comprehensive account of conjectural variations equilibria in their static inceptions, featuring new comparative results of equilibria with regard to efficiency. It then describes several advances in Dynamic Game Theory, allowing to understand Conjectural Variations Equilibria as dynamic ...

Quantitative finance and risk management

a physicist's approach

Written by a physicist with over 15 years of experience as a quant on Wall Street, this book treats a wide variety of topics. Presenting the theory and practice of quantitative finance and risk, it delves into the "how to" and "what it's like ...

Theory of regular economies

This book presents a comprehensive treatment of the theory of regular economies, which is one of the most advanced topics in modern general equilibrium theory, emphasizing the basic ideas, the tools and the important applications. Although many notions and tools of differential topology are required ...

Un matemático invierte en bolsa

John Allen Paulos sintió a finales de los años noventa, en pleno auge de las empresas «punto com», la irresistible atracción del mundo de la Bolsa. Invirtió dinero, especuló con acciones, se arriesgó cada vez más y... ¡perdió!, tal vez al igual que muchos de ...

Math through the ages

a gentle history for teachers and others

Where did math come from? Who thought up all those algebra symbols? Who came up with the symbols for arithmetic? What's the story behind the metric system, Euclidean geometry, or complex numbers? What is it all for, anyway? Such questions come up naturally when ...
