The current volume presents four chapters touching on some of the most important and modern areas of research in Mathematical Finance: asset price bubbles (by Philip Protter); energy markets (by Fred Espen Benth); investment under transaction costs (by Paolo Guasoni and Johannes Muhle-Karbe); and numerical methods for solving stochastic equations (by Dan Crisan, K. Manolarakis and C. Nee).The Paris-Princeton Lecture Notes on Mathematical Finance, of which this is the fifth volume, publish cutting-edge research in self-contained, expository articles from renowned specialists. The aim is to produce a series of articles that can serve as an introductory reference source for research in the field.

Presents cutting-edge research in Mathematical Finance Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Autorentext

Ole Barndorff-Nielsen is well known for his manifold contributions to the theory and applications of probability and mathematical statistics, as described in the introductions of The Fascination of Probability, Statistics and Their Applications, Springer 2016. He has contributed to various fields, including statistical inference, sedimentology, infinite divisibility and Levy theory, homogeneous turbulence, and financial econometrics. Together with Jürgen Schmiegel he has founded the field of ambit stochastics. Fred Espen Benth's research focuses on stochastic analysis and its applications to energy and finance. He has contributed to risk management analysis of financial markets for weather and energy, as well as theoretical developments of stochastic calculus, including non-semimartingale stochastic integration. Recently he has developed stochastic volatility models and autoregressive processes in the infinite dimensional context. Almut E. D. Veraart is a statistician and probabilist with an interest in developing stochastic models and statistical methods for finance, energy markets and weather and environmental variables. Her main methodological contributions are in statistical finance focusing on stochastic volatility modelling and estimation based on high-frequency data and in spatio-temporal statistics dealing with simulation and inference for ambit fields.
