But the urge to begin writing it didn’tmaterialize until shortly after completing my first book, Introduction to Quantitative Finance: A Math Tool Kit, in 2010. The one goal I had for this reference book was that it would be complete and detailed in the development of the many materials one finds referenced in the various areas of quantitative finance. The one constraint I realized from the beginning was that I could not accomplish this goal, plus write a complete survey of the quantitative finance applications of these materials, in the 700 or so pages that I budgeted for myself for my first book. Little did I know at the time that this project would require a multiple of this initial page count budget even without detailed finance applications. I was never concerned about the omission of the details on applications to quantitative finance because there are already a great many books in this area that develop these applications very well. The one shortcoming I perceived many such books to have is that they are written at a level of mathematical sophistication that requires a reader to have significant formal training in mathematics, as well as the time and energy to fill in omitted details. While such a task would provide a challenging and perhaps welcome exercise for more advanced graduate students in this field, it is likely to be less welcome to many other students and practitioners. It is also the case that quantitative finance has grown to utilize advanced mathematical theories from a number of fields. While there are again a great many very good references on these subjects, most are again written at a level that does not in my experience characterize the backgrounds of most students and practitioners of quantitative finance. So over the past several years I have been drafting this reference book, accumulating the mathematical theories I have encountered in my work in this field, and then attempting to integrate them into a coherent collection of books that develops the necessary ideas in some detail. My target readers would be quantitatively literate to the extent of familiarity, indeed comfort, with the materials and formal developments in my first book, and suffi ciently motivated to identify and then navigate the details of the materials they were attempting to master. Unfortunately, adding these details supports learning but also increases the lengths of the various developments. But this book was never intended to provide a “cover-to-cover”reading challenge, but rather to be a reference book in which one could find detailed foundational materials in a variety of areas that support further studies in quantitative finance. ix x Preface Over these past years, one volume turned into two, which then became a work not likely publishable in the traditional channels given its unforgiving size and likely limited target audience. So I have instead decided to self- publish this work, converting the original chapters into stand-alone books, of which there are now nine. My goal is to finalize each book over the coming year or two. I hope these books serve you well. I am grateful for the support of my family: Lisa, Michael, David, and Jeffrey, as well as the support of friends and colleagues at Brandeis Interna- tional Business School. Robert R. Reitano Brandeis International Business School to Michael, David, and Jeffrey xi Introduction This is the first book in a series of several that will be self-published under the collective title of Foundations of Quantitative Finance. Each book in the series is intended to build from the materials in earlier books, alternating between books with a more foundational mathematical perspective, which is the case with this first book, and books which develop probability theory and quantitative applications to finance. But while providing many of the foundational theories underlying quantitative finance, this series of books does not provide a detailed development of these financial applications. Instead this series is intended to be used as a reference work for researchers and practitioners of quantitative finance who already have other sources for these detailed financial applications but find that such sources are written at a level which assume significant mathematical expertise, which if not possessed can be diffi cult to supplement. Because the goal of many books in quantitative finance is to develop fi- nancial applications from an advanced point of view, it is often the case that advanced foundational materials from mathematics and probability theory are introduced and summarized but without a complete and formal develop- ment that would lead the authors too far astray from their intended objec- tives. And while there are a great many excellent books on mathematics and probability theory, a number of which are cited in the references, such books typically develop materials with a eye to comprehensiveness in the subject matter, and not with an eye toward effi ciently curating and developing the theory needed for applications in quantitative finance. Thus the goal of this series is to introduce and develop in some detail a number of the foundational theories underlying quantitative finance, with topics curated from a vast mathematical and probability literature for the express purpose of supporting applications in quantitative finance.

  • Introduction to Transcendental Dynamics Christopher J. Bishop
    Introduction to Transcendental Dynamics Christopher J. Bishop Department of Mathematics Stony Brook University Intentions Despite many previous opportunities and a brush with conformal dynamics in the form of Kleinian groups, I had never worked on the iteration of holomorphic functions until April 2011 when I met Misha Lyubich on the stairwell of the Stony Brook math building he told me that Alex Eremenko had a question for me. Alex was visiting for a few days and his question was the following: given any compact, connected, planar set K and an ǫ > 0, is there a polynomial p(z) with only two critical values, whose critical points approximate K to within ǫ in the Hausdorff metric? 1 It turns out that we can assume the critical values are 1 and then T = p− ([ 1, 1]) ± − is a finite tree in the plane and Alex’s question is equivalent to asking if such trees are dense in all compact sets. Such a tree is conformally balanced in the sense that every edge gets equal harmonic measure from and every subset of an edge gets ∞ equal harmonic measure from either side. This makes the existence of such trees seem unlikely, or at least requiring very special geometry, but I was able to show that Alex’s conjecture was correct by building an approximating tree that is balanced in a quasiconformal sense and then “fixing” it with the measurable Riemann mapping theorem. When I asked for the motivation behind the question, Alex explained that entire functions with a finite number of critical points play an important role in transcen- dental dynamics because they mimic certain properties of polynomials, e.g., Dennis Sullivan’s “no wandering domains” theorem can be extended to such functions.

  • Background EUPHEM REPORT
    EUPHEM REPORT Summary of work activities Claudia Lucarelli European Public Health Microbiology Training Programme (EUPHEM) 2013 cohort Background According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control’s (ECDC) advisory group on public health microbiology (‘national microbiology focal points’), public health microbiology is a cross-cutting area that spans the fields of human, animal, food, water, and environmental microbiology, with a focus on human population health and disease. The primary work function is to use microbiology to improve the health of populations in collaboration with other public health disciplines, in particular epidemiology. Public health microbiology laboratories play a central role in the detection, monitoring, outbreak response, and provision of scientific evidence to prevent and control infectious diseases. European preparedness for responding to new infectious disease threats requires a sustainable infrastructure capable of detecting, diagnosing, and controlling infectious disease problems, including the design of control strategies for the prevention and treatment of infections. A broad range of expertise, particularly in the fields of epidemiology and public health microbiology, is necessary to fulfil these requirements. Public health microbiology is required to provide access to experts with expertise and experience in all relevant communicable diseases at the regional, national and international level in order to mount rapid responses to emerging health threats, plan appropriate prevention strategies,

  • Littlewood's Fourth Principle
    Littlewood’s fourth principle Rolando Magnanini∗and Giorgio Poggesi† August 6, 2014 Abstract In Real Analysis, Littlewood’s three principles are known as heuristics that help teach the essentials of measure theory and reveal the analo- gies between the concepts of topological space and continuos function on one side and those of measurable space and measurable function on the other one. They are based on important and rigorous statements, such as Lusin’s and Egoroff-Severini’s theorems, and have ingenious and elegant proofs. We shall comment on those theorems and show how their proofs can possibly be made simpler by introducing a fourth principle. These al- ternative proofs make even more manifest those analogies and show that Egoroff-Severini’s theorem can be considered the natural generalization of the classical Dini’s monotone convergence theorem. 1 Introduction. John Edenson Littlewood (9 June 1885 - 6 September 1977) was a British math- ematician. In 1944, he wrote an influential textbook, Lectures on the Theory of Functions ([7]), in which he proposed three principles as guides for working in real analysis; these are heuristics to help teach the essentials of measure theory, as Littlewood himself wrote in [7]: The extent of knowledge [of real analysis] required is nothing like so great as is sometimes supposed. There are three principles, roughly expressible in the following terms: every (measurable) set is nearly a finite sum of intervals; every function (of class Lλ) is nearly continuous; every convergent sequence is nearly uniformly convergent. Most of the results of the present section are fairly arXiv:1408.0920v1 [math.CA] 5 Aug 2014 intuitive applications of these ideas, and the student armed with them should be equal to most occasions when real variable theory is called for.

    ΠME Journal, Vol. xx, No. x, pp 373–??, xxxx. 373 THE PI MU EPSILON 100TH ANNIVERSARY PROBLEMS: PART III STEVEN J. MILLER∗ As 2014 marks the 100th anniversary of Pi Mu Epsilon, I thought it would be fun to celebrate with 100 problems related to important mathematics milestones of the past century. The problems and notes below are meant to provide a brief tour through some of the most exciting and influential moments in recent mathematics. As editor I have been fortunate to have so many people contribute (especially James Andrews and Avery Carr, who assisted greatly in Parts I and II); for each year a contributor has written a description of the event and proposed a problem for the reader’s enjoyment. No list can be complete, and of course there are far too many items to celebrate. This list must painfully miss many people’s favorites. As the goal is to introduce students to some of the history of mathematics, ac- cessibility counted far more than importance in breaking ties, and thus the list below is populated with many problems that are more recreational. Many others are well known and extensively studied in the literature; however, as the goal is to introduce people to what can be done in and with mathematics, I’ve decided to include many of these as exercises since attacking them is a great way to learn. We have tried to include some background text before each problem framing it, and references for further reading. This has led to a very long document, so for space issues we split it into four parts (based on the congruence of the year modulo 4).
