Market Risk Analysis, Quantitative Methods in Finance
Written by leading market risk academic, Professor Carol Alexander, Quantitative Methods in Finance forms part one of the Market Risk Analysis four volume set.Starting from the basics, this book helps readers to take the first step towards becoming a properly qualified financial risk manager and asset manager, roles that are currently in huge demand.Accessible to intelligent readers with a moderate understanding of mathematics at high school level or to anyone with a university degree in mathematics, physics or engineering, no prior knowledge of finance is necessary.Instead the emphasis is on understanding ideas rather than on mathematical rigour, meaning that this book offers a fast-track introduction to financial analysis for readers with some quantitative background, highlighting those areas of mathematics that are particularly relevant to solving problems in financial risk management and asset management.Unique to this book is a focus on both continuous and discrete time finance so that Quantitative Methods in Finance is not only about the application of mathematics to finance; it also explains, in very pedagogical terms, how the continuous time and discrete time finance disciplines meet, providing a comprehensive, highly accessible guide which will provide readers with the tools to start applying their knowledge immediately. All together, the Market Risk Analysis four volume set illustrates virtually every concept or formula with a practical, numerical example or a longer, empirical case study.Across all four volumes there are approximately 300 numerical and empirical examples, 400 graphs and figures and 30 case studies many of which are contained in interactive Excel spreadsheets available from the accompanying CD-ROM.Empirical examples and case studies specific to this volume include: Principal component analysis of European equity indices;Calibration of Student t distribution by maximum likelihood;Orthogonal regression and estimation of equity factor models;Simulations of geometric Brownian motion, and of correlated Student t variables;Pricing European and American options with binomial trees, and European options with the Black-Scholes-Merton formula;Cubic spline fitting of yields curves and implied volatilities;Solution of Markowitz problem with no short sales and other constraints;Calculation of risk adjusted performance metrics including generalised Sharpe ratio, omega and kappa indices.

Trading Territories : Mapping the Early Modern World
Trading Territories tells the compelling story of maps and geographical knowledge in the early modern world from the fifteenth to the early seventeenth century.Examining how European geographers mapped the territories of the Old World -Africa and Southeast Asia - this book shows how the historical preoccupation with Columbus's `discovery' of the New World of America in 1492 obscured the ongoing importance of mapping territories that have since been defined as `eastern', especially those in the Muslim world. In this book, now available in paperback and updated with a new preface by the author, Jerry Brotton shows that trade and diplomacy defined the development of maps and globes in this period, far more than the disinterested pursuit of scientific accuracy and objectivity, and challenges our preconceptions about not just maps, but also the history and geography of what we call East and West.

What is options trading?
Options trading is a type of investing strategy that involves buying and selling options contracts on the stock market. An options contract gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a specific asset at a predetermined price within a set timeframe. Options trading allows investors to speculate on the direction of a stock's price movement without actually owning the stock itself. It can be a high-risk, high-reward strategy that requires a good understanding of the market and careful risk management.

How is gene mapping done through a 3-point analysis?
Gene mapping through a 3-point analysis involves examining the recombination frequencies between three genetic markers located on the same chromosome. By analyzing the frequency of recombination events between these markers, the relative distances between them can be estimated. This information helps in constructing a genetic map of the chromosome, showing the order and relative positions of the markers. The closer two markers are to each other, the lower the frequency of recombination events between them, indicating they are more tightly linked.

How does MIDI mapping work?
MIDI mapping allows users to assign specific MIDI messages to control parameters within a software or hardware device. This process involves selecting a parameter to be controlled, such as volume or effects, and then assigning a MIDI message, such as a note, controller, or program change, to that parameter. Once the mapping is set up, the MIDI message can then be sent from a MIDI controller, such as a keyboard or pad controller, to manipulate the assigned parameter in real-time. This allows for a more hands-on and customizable approach to controlling music software and hardware.

When is a mapping proportional?
A mapping is proportional when there is a constant ratio between the corresponding values of the two sets being mapped. In other words, if the ratio of the output values to the input values remains constant, then the mapping is considered proportional. This means that as one set of values increases or decreases, the other set of values changes in direct proportion.

Is the mapping left-unique?
Yes, the mapping is left-unique. This means that each input value in the domain is associated with only one output value in the range. In other words, no two different input values can map to the same output value. This ensures that the mapping is well-defined and unambiguous.

What is a linear mapping?
A linear mapping, also known as a linear transformation, is a function between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication. In other words, it maps a vector from one space to another in a way that maintains the structure of the vector space. Linear mappings are fundamental in linear algebra and are used to describe various mathematical concepts and relationships in a geometrically meaningful way. They play a crucial role in solving systems of linear equations, studying eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and understanding the properties of matrices.
-
What is an identical mapping?
An identical mapping is a type of mapping where each element in one set is paired with a unique element in another set, such that the pairing preserves the identity of the elements. In other words, each element in the first set corresponds to only one element in the second set, and vice versa. This type of mapping is often used in mathematics and computer science to establish a one-to-one correspondence between elements of two sets.
-
What is a bijective mapping?
A bijective mapping is a function between two sets that is both injective and surjective. In other words, every element in the domain is paired with a unique element in the codomain, and every element in the codomain is paired with at least one element in the domain. This means that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the elements of the two sets. Bijective mappings are also known as one-to-one and onto functions.
