This book presents an overview of fundamental concepts in mathematics and how they are applied to basic financial engineering problems, with the goal of teaching students to use mathematics and engineering tools to understand and solve financial problems. Part I covers mathematical preliminaries (set theory, linear algebra, sequences and series, real functions and analysis, numerical approximations and computations, basic optimization theory, and stochastic processes), and Part II addresses financial topics ranging from low- to high-risk investments (interest rates and value of money, bonds, dynamic asset modeling, portfolio theory and optimization, option pricing, and the concept of hedging). Based on lectures for a master’s program in financial engineering given by the author over 12 years at the University of Southern California, Mathematics and Tools for Financial Engineering contains numerous examples and problems, establishes a strong general mathematics background and engineering modeling techniques in a pedagogical fashion, and covers numerical techniques with applications to solving financial problems using different software tools. This textbook is intended for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in finance or financial engineering and is useful to readers with no prior knowledge in finance who want to understand some basic mathematical tools and theories associated with financial engineering. It is also appropriate as an overview of many mathematical concepts and engineering tools relevant to courses on numerical analysis, modeling and data science, numerical optimization, and approximation theory.

Until now, few systematic studies of optimal statistical inference for stochastic processes had existed in the financial engineering literature, even though this idea is fundamental to the field. Balancing statistical theory with data analysis, Optimal Statistical Inference in Financial Engineering examines how stochastic models can effectively des

How will low-income communities be affected by the waves of social, economic, political, and cultural change that surround the new information technologies? How can we influence the outcome? This action-oriented book identifies the key issues, explores the evidence, and suggests some answers. Avoiding both utopianism and despair, the book presents the voices of technology enthusiasts and skeptics, as well as social activists. The book is organized into three parts. Part I examines the issues in their socio-technical, economic, and historical contexts. Part II--the core of the book--proposes five initiatives for using computers and electronic communications to benefit low-income urban communities: - to provide access to the new technologies in ways that enable low-income people to become active producers rather than passive users;- to use the new technologies to improve the dialogue between public agencies and low-income neighborhoods;- to help low-income youth to exploit the entrepreneurial potential of information technologies;- to develop approaches to education that take advantage of the educational capabilities of the computer;- to promote the community computer: applications of computers and communications technology that foster community development. Part III presents a synthesis of the various topics. Its main questions are, What are the prospects and problems of initiatives to enable the poor to benefit from the new technologies? and What federal, state, and municipal policies would enhance the prospects for success?
