In seminars and graduate level courses I have had several opportunities to discuss modeling and analysis of time series with economists and economic graduate students during the past several years.
Backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) provide a general mathematical framework for solving pricing and risk management questions of financial derivatives.
This volume brings together five contributions to mathematical fluid mechanics, a classical but still very active research field which overlaps with physics and engineering.
This volume, setting out the theory of positive maps as it stands today, reflects the rapid growth in this area of mathematics since it was recognized in the 1990s that these applications of C*-algebras are crucial to the study of entanglement in quantum theory.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Workshop on Computer Algebra in Scientific Computing, CASC 2012, held in Maribor, Slovenia, in September 2012.
Many phenomena in engineering and mathematical physics can be modeled by means of boundary value problems for a certain elliptic differential operator in a given domain.
Most financial and investment decisions are based on considerations of possible future changes and require forecasts on the evolution of the financial world.
Based on a series of lectures for adult students, this lively and entertaining book proves that, far from being a dusty, dull subject, geometry is in fact full of beauty and fascination.
Real Analysis is a discipline of intensive study in many institutions of higher education, because it contains useful concepts and fundamental results in the study of mathematics and physics, of the technical disciplines and geometry.
This book is an edited volume, the goal of which is to provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art in statistical methods applied to problems in structural bioinformatics (and in particular protein structure prediction, simulation, experimental structure determination and analysis).
The problems of conditional optimization of the uniform (or C-) norm for polynomials and rational functions arise in various branches of science and technology.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Computer Algebra in Scientific Computing, CASC 2011, held in Kassel, Germany, in September 2011.
Recent trends in health care across the United States and internationally have emphasized a novel approach that consists in comparing the effectiveness and efficacy of treatment interventions with a patient-centered emphasis (i.
The emphasis throughout the present volume is on the practical application of theoretical mathematical models helping to unravel the underlying mechanisms involved in processes from mathematical physics and biosciences.
The theory presented in this book is developed constructively, is based on a few axioms encapsulating the notion of objects (points and sets) being apart, and encompasses both point-set topology and the theory of uniform spaces.
This brief monograph is the first one to deal exclusively with the quantitative approximation by artificial neural networks to the identity-unit operator.
