Description for Elementary Stochastic Calculus, with Finance in View
Hardcover. An elementary introduction to modelling with Ito integral or stochastic differential equations, without burdening the reader with a great deal of measure theory. Applications are taken from stochastic finance. In particular, the Black-Scholes option pricing formula is derived. Series: Advanced Series on Statistical Science & Applied Probability. Num Pages: 224 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: KF; PBT; PBWL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 224 x 163 x 20. Weight in Grams: 522.
Modelling with the Itô integral or stochastic differential equations has become increasingly important in various applied fields, including physics, biology, chemistry and finance. However, stochastic calculus is based on a deep mathematical theory.This book is suitable for the reader without a deep mathematical background. It gives an elementary introduction to that area of probability theory, without burdening the reader with a great deal of measure theory. Applications are taken from stochastic finance. In particular, the Black-Scholes option pricing formula is derived. The book can serve as a text for a course on stochastic calculus for non-mathematicians or as elementary reading ... Read more
