This volume contains refereed research or review papers presented at the 5th Seminar on Stochastic Processes, Random Fields and Applications, which took place at the Centro Stefano Franscini (Monte Verita) in Ascona, Switzerland, from May 29 to June 3, 2004. The seminar focused mainly on stochastic partial differential equations, stochastic models in mathematical physics, and financial engineering.

This volume contains refereed research or review papers presented at the 6th Seminar on Stochastic Processes, Random Fields and Applications, which took place at the Centro Stefano Franscini (Monte Verita) in Ascona, Switzerland, in May 2008. The seminar focused mainly on stochastic partial differential equations, especially large deviations and control problems, on infinite dimensional analysis, particle systems and financial engineering, especially energy markets and climate models.

The book will be a valuable resource for researchers in stochastic analysis and professionals interested...

Pure and applied stochastic analysis and random fields form the subject of this book. The collection of articles on these topics represent the state of the art of the research in the field, with particular attention being devoted to stochastic models in finance. Some are review articles, others are original papers; taken together, they will apprise the reader of much of the current activity in the area.

European Commission Decisions on Competition provides a comprehensive economic classification and analysis of all European Commission decisions adopted pursuant to Articles 101, 102 and 106 of the FEU Treaty from 1962 to 2009. It also includes a sample of landmark European merger cases. The decisions are organised according to the principal economic theory applied in the case. For each economic category, the seminal Commission decision that became a reference point for that type of anticompetitive behaviour is described. For this, a fixed template format is used throughout the book. All...

This volume contains 20 refereed research or review papers presented at the five-day Third Seminar on Stochastic Analysis, Random Fields and Applications which took place at the Centro Stefano Franscini (Monte Verita) in Ascona, Switzerland, from September 20 to 24, 1999. The seminar focused on three topics: fundamental aspects of stochastic analysis, physical modeling, and applications to financial engineering. The third topic was the subject of a mini-symposium on stochastic methods in financial models.

This volume contains twenty refereed papers presented at the 4th Seminar on Stochastic Processes, Random Fields and Applications, which took place in Ascona, Switzerland, from May 2002. The seminar focused mainly on stochastic partial differential equations, stochastic models in mathematical physics, and financial engineering. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers in stochastic analysis and professionals interested in stochastic methods in finance and insurance.

A collection of 20 refereed research or review papers presented at a six-day seminar in Switzerland. The contributions focus on stochastic analysis, its applications to the engineering sciences, and stochastic methods in financial models, which was the subject of a minisymposium.

This volume contains refereed research or review articles presented at the 7th Seminar on Stochastic Analysis, Random Fields and Applications which took place at the Centro Stefano Franscini (Monte Verita) in Ascona, Switzerland, in May 2011. The seminar focused mainly on: - stochastic (partial) differential equations, especially with jump processes, construction of solutions and approximations - Malliavin calculus and Stein methods, and other techniques in stochastic analysis, especially chaos representations and convergence, and applications to models of interacting particle systems -...

Viaggio nel Tempo lungo l'intero network delle antiche vie della seta. Itinerario asiatico attraverso i deserti piu distanti dal mare e le montagne piu vicine al cielo, passando per remote antiche rovine sepolte dalle sabbie come per le metropoli piu moderne del continente. Come nelle "Citta Invisibili" di Calvino, ogni capitolo e dedicato ad una citta. Le "Citta di Seta" sono Trebisonda, Tabriz, Mashhad, Samarcanda, Kashgar, Lahore, Karachi, Turfan, Dunhuang e Xi'an, dieci nobili centri che come le perle di una collana ridisegnano la trama dell'antica rete commerciale panasiatica. Ognuna di...
