Applied Diffusion Processes from Engineering to Finance
The aim of this book is to promote interaction between engineering, finance and insurance, as these three domains have many models and methods of solution in common for solving real-life problems. The authors point out the strict inter-relations that exist among the diffusion models used in engineering, finance and insurance.
The aim of Applied Diffusion Processes from Engineering to Finance is to promote interaction between engineering, finance, and insurance. These three domains share many models and methods of solution for tackling real-life problems. The authors highlight the close inter-relations that exist among the diffusion models utilised in engineering, finance, and insurance.
In each of the three fields, the basic diffusion models are presented, and their strong similarities are discussed. Analytical, numerical, and Monte Carlo simulation methods are explained with the intent of applying them to solve the different problems addressed in the book.
Advanced topics such as nonlinear problems, LΓ©vy processes, and semi-Markov models in connection with diffusion models are explored. The discussion also covers possible future interactions among engineering, finance, and insurance.
