Key Features:A complete introduction accessible to advanced undergraduatesAlso covers recent aspects of interest rate modelingIncludes many graphs illustrating the multidimensional aspects of interest rate modelsEach chapter is accompanied with exercises and their complete solutions.

Key Features:A rigorous stochastic modeling of weather factors like temperature, wind and rain based on continuous-time autoregressive processes and Lévy processesPricing of weather derivatives like futures and options based on modern mathematical finance theoryThis book is unique in combining...

Key Features:Unique focus on hedging and optimal martingale measuresIncludes new developments about static and dynamic hedging schemesTreatment of popular models for asset prices like exponential Lévy processes and stochastic volatility models.

The book gives a comprehensive treatment of the classical and modern ruin probability theory. Some of the topics are Lundberg's inequality, the Cramer-Lundberg approximation, exact solutions, other approximations (e.g., for heavy-tailed claim size distributions), finite horizon ruin...

Key Features:Gives a detailed account of advanced stochastic models for spot, futures and option price dynamics in energy marketsGives a detailed analysis of electricity and gas futures prices, with an emphasis on market models (also known as LIBOR models).

This book introduces an analytically tractable and computationally effective class of non-Gaussian models for shocks (regular Lévy processes of the exponential type) and related analytical methods similar to the initial Merton-Black-Scholes approach, which the authors call the...
