These Lecture Notes contain the material relative to the courses
given at the CIME summer school held in Cetraro, Italy from August
29 to September 3, 2011. The topic was "Hamilton-Jacobi Equations:
Approximations, Numerical Analysis and Applications". The courses
dealt mostly with the following subjects: first order and second
order Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations, properties of viscosity
solutions, asymptotic behaviors, mean field games, approximation
and numerical methods, idempotent analysis. The content of the
courses ranged from an introduction to viscosity solutions to quite
advanced topics, at the cutting edge of research in the field. We
believe that they opened perspectives on new and delicate issues.
These lecture notes contain four contributions by Yves Achdou
(Finite Difference Methods for Mean Field Games), Guy Barles (An
Introduction to the Theory of Viscosity Solutions for First-order
Hamilton-Jacobi Equations and Applications), Hitoshi Ishii (A Short
Introduction to Viscosity Solutions and the Large Time Behavior of
Solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi Equations) and Grigory Litvinov
(Idempotent/Tropical Analysis, the Hamilton-Jacobi and Bellman
Equations).
This volume provides an introduction to the theory of Mean Field
Games, suggested by J.-M. Lasry and P.-L. Lions in 2006 as a
mean-field model for Nash equilibria in the strategic interaction
of a large number of agents. Besides giving an accessible
presentation of the main features of mean-field game theory, the
volume offers an overview of recent developments which explore
several important directions: from partial differential equations
to stochastic analysis, from the calculus of variations to modeling
and aspects related to numerical methods. Arising from the CIME
Summer School "Mean Field Games" held in Cetraro in 2019, this book
collects together lecture notes prepared by Y. Achdou (with M.
Lauriere), P. Cardaliaguet, F. Delarue, A. Porretta and F.
Santambrogio. These notes will be valuable for researchers and
advanced graduate students who wish to approach this theory and
explore its connections with several different fields in
mathematics.
Here is a book for anyone who would like to become better
acquainted with the modern tools of numerical analysis for several
significant computational problems arising in finance. The authors
review some important aspects of finance modeling involving partial
differential equations and focus on numerical algorithms for the
fast and accurate pricing of financial derivatives and for the
calibration of parameters. Option pricing has become a technical
topic that requires sophisticated numerical methods for robust and
fast numerical solutions. This book explores the best numerical
algorithms and discusses them in depth, from their mathematical
analysis up to their implementation in C with efficient numerical
libraries. Much of this information is not available elsewhere. In
particular, this is one of the few books that gives detailed
coverage of the following topics:* Mathematical results and
efficient algorithms for pricing American options.* Modern
algorithms with adaptive mesh refinement for European and American
options. Regularity and error estimates are derived and give strong
support to the mesh adaptivity, an essential tool for speeding up
the numerical implementations.* Calibration of volatility with
European and American options. * The use of automatic
differentiation of computer codes for computing gree.
