This book is written from the point of view of financial engineers or practitioners, and, as such, it puts more emphasis on the practical applications of financial mathematics in the real market than the mathematics itself with precise (and often tedious) technical conditions. It does not aim to be comprehensive; rather, it focuses on selected areas based on the authors’ experience and expertise. It also attempts to combine economic and financial insights with mathematics and modeling so as to help the reader develop intuitions.
This book also presents various exploratory (and possibly thoughtprovoking) ideas and practical issues that are beneficial to academics and practitioners as the leads for further research. In terms of a popular saying that “the engineers have problems, but no solutions, and the mathematicians have solutions, but no problems,” we are trying to supply some solutions, as well as some problems as part of the book.
