An Undergraduate Introduction to Financial Mathematics

Autor J. Robert Buchanan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mai 2006
This textbook provides an introduction to financial mathematics and financial engineering for undergraduate students who have completed a three or four semester sequence of calculus courses. It introduces the theory of interest, random variables and probability, stochastic processes, arbitrage, option pricing, hedging, and portfolio optimization. The student progresses from knowing only elementary calculus to understanding the derivation and solution of the Black?Scholes partial differential equation and its solutions. This is one of the few books on the subject of financial mathematics which is accessible to undergraduates having only a thorough grounding in elementary calculus. It explains the subject matter without ?hand waving? arguments and includes numerous examples. Every chapter concludes with a set of exercises which test the chapter's concepts and fill in details of derivations.

Recenzii

This text now covers adequately most material needed to be covered in an undergraduate course in financial mathematics. The level of material is easy to follow, understand and work out which makes it suitable for classroom adoption. Overall, it is a good introduction to financial mathematics at the undergraduate level providing enough useful information which encourages one to think. -- Professor Man M Chawla "Fellow of Indian National Science Academy, and former Professor of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi"
