Mathematical Models of Financial Derivatives

Financial Mathematics is one of the fastest growing research fields in applied mathematics. Leading edge banking and financial firms around the globe are hiring people who can use advanced analytical and numerical techniques to price financial derivatives and manage portfolio risks. Mathematical Models of Financial Derivatives serves this increasing demand, and is suitable as a textbook for degree programs in mathematical and computational finance. It models derivative products based mainly on the differential equation approach, together with numerical solution techniques when appropriate. Research results and concepts are made accessible to the student through extensive, well thought out exercises at the end of each chapter.
