The Golden Ticket
Princeton University Press 2013; US$ 26.95The P-NP problem is the most important open problem in computer science, if not all of mathematics. The Golden Ticket provides a nontechnical introduction to P-NP, its rich history, and its algorithmic implications for everything we do with computers and beyond. In this informative and entertaining book, Lance Fortnow traces how the problem arose... more...
Robust Optimization-Directed Design
Springer-Verlag New York Inc 2006; US$ 69.99Robust design is the often unpleasant issue crucial in much multidisciplinary optimal design work. There is enormous practical interest in strategies for applying optimization tools to the development of robust solutions and designs in several areas. This book contains contributions that explore these different strategies. more...
Transport Equations and Multi-D Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
Springer 2008; US$ 39.99The theory of nonlinear hyperbolic equations in several space dimensions has obtained many achievements thanks to ideas and techniques related to the structure and fine properties of functions of bounded variation. This work gives an overview of the status and perspectives of two areas of research in PDEs, related to hyperbolic conservation laws. more...

Robust Static Super-Replication of Barrier Options
De Gruyter 2009; US$ 147.00Static hedge portfolios for barrier options are very sensitive with respect to changes of the volatility surface. To prevent potentially significant hedging losses this book develops a static super-replication strategy with market-typical robustness against volatility, skew and liquidity risk as well as model errors. Combined with associated sub-replication... more...
Short-Memory Linear Processes and Econometric Applications
Wiley 2011; US$ 131.00This book serves as a comprehensive source of asymptotic results for econometric models with deterministic exogenous regressors. Such regressors include linear (more generally, piece-wise polynomial) trends, seasonally oscillating functions, and slowly varying functions including logarithmic trends, as well as some specifications of spatial matrices... more...
