Essentials Of Stochastic Finance: Facts, Models, Theory
by Albert N. Shiryaev
Published 1 January 1999
This important book provides information necessary for those dealing with stochastic calculus and pricing in the models of financial markets operating under uncertainty; introduces the reader to the main concepts, notions and results of stochastic financial mathematics; and develops applications of these results to various kinds of calculations required in financial engineering. It also answers the requests of teachers of financial mathematics and engineering by making a bias towards probabilistic and statistical ideas and the methods of stochastic calculus in the analysis of market risks.
Book 8
Statistical Experiments And Decision, Asymptotic Theory
by Albert N. Shiryaev and V G Spokoiny
Published 5 July 2000
This volume provides an exposition of some fundamental aspects of the asymptotic theory of statistical experiments. The most important of them is "how to construct asymptotically optimal decisions if we know the structure of optimal decisions for the limit experiment".
Book 21
Change Of Time And Change Of Measure
by OLE E Barndorff-Nielsen and Albert N. Shiryaev
Published 9 November 2010
Change of Time and Change of Measure provides a comprehensive account of two topics that are of particular significance in both theoretical and applied stochastics: random change of time and change of probability law.Random change of time is key to understanding the nature of various stochastic processes, and gives rise to interesting mathematical results and insights of importance for the modeling and interpretation of empirically observed dynamic processes. Change of probability law is a technique for solving central questions in mathematical finance, and also has a considerable role in insurance mathematics, large deviation theory, and other fields.The book comprehensively collects and integrates results from a number of scattered sources in the literature and discusses the importance of the results relative to the existing literature, particularly with regard to mathematical finance. It is invaluable as a textbook for graduate-level courses and students or a handy reference for researchers and practitioners in financial mathematics and econometrics.
