Since 2004, the Tokyo Metropolitan University (TMU) has been conducting workshops that serve as a forum for academic researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and developments in different fields of finance. This book is based on papers presented at the 2014 workshop held in Tokyo, on 6-7 November, 2014. The chapters address state-of-the-art techniques in mathematical finance and financial engineering. The authors share ideas and information on new methods and up-to-date results of their research in these fields. This book is a must-read for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in the fields of mathematical finance, quantitative finance and financial engineering.

This book contains the proceedings of the KIER-TMU International Workshop on Financial Engineering 2010, which was held in Tokyo, in order to exchange new ideas in financial engineering among industry professionals and researchers from various countries. It has been held for two consecutive years since 2009, as a successor to the Daiwa International Workshop, which was held from 2004 to 2008, and is organized by the Institute of Economic Research of Kyoto University (KIER) and the Graduate School of Social Sciences of Tokyo Metropolitan University (TMU).

The workshop serves as a bridge between academic researchers and practitioners. This book consists of eleven papers all refereed representing or related to the presentations at the workshop. The papers address state-of-the-art techniques in financial engineering. The Proceedings of the 2009 workshop was also published by World Scientific Publishing.

This book consists of 11 papers based on research presented at the KIER-TMU International Workshop on Financial Engineering, held in Tokyo in 2009. The Workshop, organised by Kyoto University's Institute of Economic Research (KIER) and Tokyo Metropolitan University (TMU), is the successor to the Daiwa International Workshop on Financial Engineering held from 2004 to 2008 by Professor Kijima (the Chair of this Workshop) and his colleagues. Academic researchers and industry practitioners alike have presented the latest research on financial engineering at this international venue.These papers address state-of-the-art techniques in financial engineering, and have undergone a rigorous selection process to make this book a high-quality one. This volume will be of interest to academics, practitioners, and graduate students in the field of quantitative finance and financial engineering.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 2008 Daiwa International Workshop on Financial Engineering held in Tokyo. The annual workshop is sponsored by the Daiwa Securities Group, and serves as a bridge between leading academics and practitioners in the field. This year, the papers presented at the workshop have been refereed and published in a single volume to commemorate the 60th birthday of Professor Yuri Kabanov, and to thank him for his contributions to the progress of mathematical finance in general, and the Daiwa International Workshop in particular. The book caters to academics and practitioners as well as graduate and postgraduate students of financial engineering. Quantitative researchers on financial markets will also find it a useful resource.

This book presents an algebraic development of the theory of countable state space Markov chains with discrete and continuous time parameters.
