Book Description

This book is an extension of Probability for Finance to multi-period financial models, either in the discrete or continuous-time framework. It describes the most important stochastic processes used in finance in a pedagogical way, especially Markov chains, Brownian motion and martingales. It also shows how mathematical tools like filtrations, Ito's lemma or Girsanov theorem should be understood in the framework of financial models. It also provides many illustrations coming from the financial literature.

  This book provides technical support for students in finance. It reviews the main probabilistic tools used in financial models in a pedagogical way, starting from simple concepts like random variables and tribes and going to more sophisticated ones like conditional expectations and limit theorems.

• Advanced Stochastic Processes (David Gamarnik)

  This guide to Stochastic Processes covers a wide range of topics. Short, readable chapters aim for clarity rather than full generality. The objectives of the text are to introduce students to the standard concepts and methods of stochastic modeling

• Advanced Stochastic Processes (Jan A. Van Casteren)

  This comprehensive guide to Stochastic Processes gives a complete overview of the theory and addresses the most important applications. Basically self-contained, it is both a course book and a rich resource for individual readers.

• Stochastic Calculus and Finance (Steven E. Shreve)

  The book gives both precise statements of results, plausibility arguments, and even some proofs, but more importantly intuitive explanations developed and refine through classroom experience with this material are provided.

• Applied Stochastic Processes in Science and Engineering

  This book introduces modern concepts of applied stochastic processes is written for a broad range of applications in diverse areas of engineering and the sciences. Written for a senior undergraduate course offered to students with a suitably mathematical background.

• Stochastic Modeling and Control (Ivan Ganchev Ivanov)

  The book provides a self-contained treatment on practical aspects of stochastic modeling and calculus including applications drawn from engineering, statistics, and computer science.
