Abstract

This book summarizes recent advances in applying saddlepoint approximation methods to financial engineering. It addresses pricing exotic financial derivatives and calculating risk contributions to Value-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall in credit portfolios under various default correlation models. These standard problems involve the computation of tail probabilities and tail expectations of the corresponding underlying state variables.  The text offers in a single source most of the saddlepoint approximation results in financial engineering, with different sets of ready-to-use approximation formulas. Much of this material may otherwise only be found in original research publications. The exposition and style are made rigorous by providing formal proofs of most of the results. Starting with a presentation of the derivation of a variety of saddlepoint approximation formulas in different contexts, this book will help new researchers to learn the fine technicalities of the topic. It will also be valuable to quantitative analysts in financial institutions who strive for effective valuation of prices of exotic financial derivatives and risk positions of portfolios of risky instruments.  .

Abstract

Applied functional analysis has an extensive history. In the last century, this field has often been used in physical sciences, such as wave and heat phenomena. In recent decades, with the development of nonlinear functional analysis, this field has been used to model a variety of engineering, medical, and computer sciences. Two of the most significant issues in this area are modeling and optimization. Thus, we consider some recently published works on fixed point, variational inequalities, and optimization problems. These works could lead readers to obtain new novelties and familiarize them with some applications of this area.
