The heart of the book is the development of a short-time asymptotic
expansion for the heat kernel. This is explained in detail and
explicit examples of some advanced calculations are given. In
addition some advanced methods and extensions, including path
integrals, jump diffusion and others are presented. The book
consists of four parts: Analysis, Geometry, Perturbations and
Applications. The first part shortly reviews of some background
material and gives an introduction to PDEs. The second part is
devoted to a short introduction to various aspects of differential
geometry that will be needed later. The third part and heart of the
book presents a systematic development of effective methods for
various approximation schemes for parabolic differential equations.
The last part is devoted to applications in financial mathematics,
in particular, stochastic differential equations. Although this
book is intended for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate
students in, it should also provide a useful reference for
professional physicists, applied mathematicians as well as
quantitative analysts with an interest in PDEs.
