| Name: | Quantitative Analysis Community | |
| About: | A forum for discussion of issues relating to quantitative analysis in finance. By this I mean the application of stochastic calculus and pdes to solving option pricing problems. The references below will give some flavour for the interests of the community. An overview of what being a quant is about Derman, E (2004), My Life as a Quant : Reflections on Physics and Finance Good introductory technical references for quants: Hull, J.C. (2002), Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives. Baxter, M. and Rennie, A. (1996), Financial Calculus : An Introduction to Derivative Pricing. Wilmott, P, Howison, S and Dewynne, J. (1995), The Mathematics of Financial Derivatives : A Student Introduction. Musiela, M. and Rutkowski, M. (1997), Martingale Methods in Financial Modelling. Oksendal, B. (2003), Stochastic Differential Equations: An Introduction With Applications. Karatzas, I. and Shreve, S.E. (1997), Brownian Motion and Stochastic Calculus. | |
