Description This book focuses specifically on the key results in stochastic processes that have become essential for finance practitioners to understand. The authors study the Wiener process and Ito integrals in some detail, with a focus on results needed for the Black-Scholes option pricing model. After developing the required martingale properties of this process, the construction of the integral and the Ito formula proved in detail become the centrepiece, both for theory and applications, and to provide concrete examples of stochastic differential equations used in finance.
Finally, proofs of the existence, uniqueness and the Markov property of solutions of general stochastic equations complete the book. Using careful exposition and detailed proofs, this book is a far more accessible introduction to Ito calculus than most texts. Students, practitioners and researchers will benefit from its rigorous, but unfussy, approach to technical issues.

Did a pre-Homeric Greek artist try to represent a fractal? The blue shape in this years old wall painting from Akrotiri, Thera known as "Shipwreck" bears a striking resemblance to the fractal known as von Koch coastline, bringing to mind Mandelbrot's celebrated paper "How long is the coast of Great Britain?
The island of Thera is believed by many archaeologists to have been no less than the mythical Atlantis To find out more about fractal shapes in Minoan art see: Zastawniak, How long was the coast of Atlantis?
