Probability Essentials

This introduction can be used, at the beginning graduate level, for a one-semester course on probability theory or for self-direction without benefit of a formal course; the measure theory needed is developed in the text. It will also be useful for students and teachers in related areas such as finance theory, electrical engineering, and operations research. The text covers the essentials in a directed and lean way with 28 short chapters, and assumes only an undergraduate background in mathematics. Readers are taken right up to a knowledge of the basics of Martingale Theory, and the interested student will be ready to continue with the study of more advanced topics, such as Brownian Motion and Ito Calculus, or Statistical Inference.

Discretization of Processes

In applications, and especially in mathematical finance, random time-dependent events are often modeled as stochastic processes. Assumptions are made about the structure of such processes, and serious researchers will want to justify those assumptions through the use of data. As statisticians are wont to say, “In God we trust; all others must bring data.” This book establishes the theory of how to go about estimating not just scalar parameters about a proposed model, but also the underlying structure of the model itself. Classic statistical tools are used: the law of large numbers, and the central limit theorem. Researchers have recently developed creative and original methods to use the...

Limit Theorems for Stochastic Processes

Initially the theory of convergence in law of stochastic processes was developed quite independently from the theory of martingales, semimartingales and stochastic integrals. Apart from a few exceptions essentially concerning diffusion processes, it is only recently that the relation between the two theories has been thoroughly studied. The authors of this Grundlehren volume, two of the international leaders in the field, propose a systematic exposition of convergence in law for stochastic processes, from the point of view of semimartingale theory, with emphasis on results that are useful for mathematical theory and mathematical statistics. This leads them to develop in detail some particula...

High-Frequency Financial Econometrics

A comprehensive introduction to the statistical and econometric methods for analyzing high-frequency financial data High-frequency trading is an algorithm-based computerized trading practice that allows firms to trade stocks in milliseconds. Over the last fifteen years, the use of statistical and econometric methods for analyzing high-frequency financial data has grown exponentially. This growth has been driven by the increasing availability of such data, the technological advancements that make high-frequency trading strategies possible, and the need of practitioners to analyze these data. This comprehensive book introduces readers to these emerging methods and tools of analysis. Yacine Aï...

A Concise Introduction to the Theory of Integration

Designed for the analyst, physicist, engineer, or economist, provides such readers with most of the measure theory they will ever need. Emphasis is on the concrete aspects of the subject. Subjects include classical theory, Lebesgue's measure, Lebesgue integration, products of measures, changes of variable, some basic inequalities, and abstract theory.

High-Frequency Statistics with Asynchronous and Irregular Data

Ole Martin extends well-established techniques for the analysis of high-frequency data based on regular observations to the more general setting of asynchronous and irregular observations. Such methods are much needed in practice as real data usually comes in irregular form. In the theoretical part he develops laws of large numbers and central limit theorems as well as a new bootstrap procedure to assess asymptotic laws. The author then applies the theoretical results to estimate the quadratic covariation and to construct tests for the presence of common jumps. The simulation results show that in finite samples his methods despite the much more complex setting perform comparably well as methods based on regular data. ​About the Author: Dr. Ole Martin completed his PhD at the Kiel University (CAU), Germany. His research focuses on high-frequency statistics for semimartingales with the aim to develop methods based on irregularly observed data.

Probabilistic Techniques in Analysis

In recent years, there has been an upsurge of interest in using techniques drawn from probability to tackle problems in analysis. These applications arise in subjects such as potential theory, harmonic analysis, singular integrals, and the study of analytic functions. This book presents a modern survey of these methods at the level of a beginning Ph.D. student. Highlights of this book include the construction of the Martin boundary, probabilistic proofs of the boundary Harnack principle, Dahlberg's theorem, a probabilistic proof of Riesz' theorem on the Hilbert transform, and Makarov's theorems on the support of harmonic measure. The author assumes that a reader has some background in basic real analysis, but the book includes proofs of all the results from probability theory and advanced analysis required. Each chapter concludes with exercises ranging from the routine to the difficult. In addition, there are included discussions of open problems and further avenues of research.
