This textbook aims to fill the gap between those that offer a
theoretical treatment without many applications and those that
present and apply formulas without appropriately deriving them. The
balance achieved will give readers a fundamental understanding of
key financial ideas and tools that form the basis for building
realistic models, including those that may become proprietary.
Numerous carefully chosen examples and exercises reinforce the
student's conceptual understanding and facility with applications.
The exercises are divided into conceptual, application-based, and
theoretical problems, which probe the material deeper. The book is
aimed toward advanced undergraduates and first-year graduate
students who are new to finance or want a more rigorous treatment
of the mathematical models used within. While no background in
finance is assumed, prerequisite math courses include multivariable
calculus, probability, and linear algebra. The authors introduce
additional mathematical tools as needed. The entire textbook is
appropriate for a single year-long course on introductory
mathematical finance. The self-contained design of the text allows
for instructor flexibility in topics courses and those focusing on
financial derivatives. Moreover, the text is useful for
mathematicians, physicists, and engineers who want to learn finance
via an approach that builds their financial intuition and is
explicit about model building, as well as business school students
who want a treatment of finance that is deeper but not overly
theoretical.
