Numerical Methods and Optimization in Finance

By: Manfred Gilli,Dietmar Maringer,Enrico Schumann

Computationally-intensive tools play an increasingly important role in financial decisions. Many financial problems-ranging from asset allocation to risk management and from option pricing to model calibration-can be efficiently handled using modern computational techniques. Numerical Methods and Optimization in Finance presents such computational techniques, with an emphasis on simulation and optimization, particularly so-called heuristics. This book treats quantitative analysis as an essentially computational discipline in which applications are put into software form and tested empirically. This revised edition includes two new chapters, a self-contained tutorial on implementing and using heuristics, and an explanation of software used for testing portfolio-selection models. Postgraduate students, researchers in programs on quantitative and computational finance, and practitioners in banks and other financial companies can benefit from this second edition of Numerical Methods and Optimization in Finance.

Nonlinear Optics on Ferroic Materials

By: Manfred Fiebig

Covering the fruitful combination of nonlinear optics and ferroic materials! Nonlinear Optics on Ferroic Materials features three fields of physics: symmetry; magnetic or electric, long-range (ferroic) order; and nonlinear laser optics. The book begins by introducing the fundamentals of each of field. Next, it discusses how nonlinear optical studies help to reveal properties that are inaccessible with standard characterization techniques. A systematic discussion is also provided of the unique degrees of freedom of the nonlinear-optical probing of ferroics. The final section of the book explores material classes of primary interest in contemporary condensed-matter physics. This includes multiferroics with magnetoelectric correlations and oxide-electronic materials as well as the applications related to the optical properties of ferroic materials. The book concludes with a look toward future developments in using nonlinear optics to study ferroic materials. Reviews original methods and approaches to applications such as oxide-electronic devices, superconductors, and topological insulators Examines how nonlinear optics and ferroics complement each other for the elucidation of materials properties and the development of new devices Serves as a reference for experienced scientists and innovative researchers The use of nonlinear optics for the study of ferroic materials has seen rising interest in recent years, therefore Nonlinear Optics is a prime resource for researchers in this field today. Manfred Fiebig, PhD, is Professor of Multifunctional Ferroic Materials in the Department of Materials at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. He served as head, resp. deputy head of the Department from 2014-2018. His recent honors include election as APS Fellow, an ERC Advanced Investigator Grant and a three-year appointment as Guest Professor at the Japanese research institute RIKEN.

Advanced Inorganic Chemistry

By: F. Albert Cotton,Geoffrey Wilkinson,Carlos A. Murillo,Manfred Bochmann

For more than a quarter century, Cotton and Wilkinson's Advanced Inorganic Chemistry has been the source that students and professional chemists have turned to for the background needed to understand current research literature in inorganic chemistry and aspects of organometallic chemistry. Like its predecessors, this updated Sixth Edition is organized around the periodic table of elements and provides a systematic treatment of the chemistry of all chemical elements and their compounds. It incorporates important recent developments with an emphasis on advances in the interpretation of structure, bonding, and reactivity.“/p> From the reviews of the Fifth Edition: "The first place to go when seeking general information about the chemistry of a particular element, especially when up-to-date, authoritative information is desired." —Journal of the American Chemical Society "Every student with a serious interest in inorganic chemistry should have [this book]." —Journal of Chemical Education "A mine of information . . . an invaluable guide." —Nature "The standard by which all other inorganic chemistry books are judged." —Nouveau Journal de Chimie "A masterly overview of the chemistry of the elements." —The Times of London Higher Education Supplement "A bonanza of information on important results and developments which could otherwise easily be overlooked in the general deluge of publications." —Angewandte Chemie

International Management

The Process of Internationalization and Market Entry Strategies

By: Manfred Fuchs

This textbook for students and practitioners offers answers to the most important questions and challenges of international management. The main topics are presented and discussed on three levels: (a) the macroeconomic and institutional environment of the global economy, (b) the international firms embedded as players in this environment, and (c) the actual management decisions. The focus is placed both on the characteristics of the individual subject areas (macro-, meso- and microperspective) and on the interdependent connections between these areas. The main interest of this book lies in an application-oriented analysis of the central strategic management decisions in internationalizing companies. This textbook has been recommended and developed for university courses in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Re Organorhenium Compounds

Part 1

By: Manfred Winter

The present volume is the first of a series of volumes dealing with organorhenium com pounds. lt covers the Literature completely up to the end of 1987. An empirical formula index and a Ligand formula index provide ready access to the compounds covered. ln accordance with the previous arrangement adopted for organemetallic compounds (cf. volumes covering organocobalt, organonickel, or organotitanium compounds), this volume starts with the mononuclear organorhenium compounds. lt contains compounds in which the organic Ligand is bonded to the Re atom by one C atom CL Ligand) and up to four CO groups. Other mononuclear compounds will be covered in the next volume of this series. 2 1 A formula like (C0) Re( D)s L belongs to a type of mononuclear rhenium compounds 2 containing three monodentate ligands eo two-electron donor) such as P(CH )s and one Ligand 3 bonded by one C atom CL) such as C H (trans-pentadienyl) or C(O)R with R = CH . 5 7 3 Much of the data, particularly in tables, is given in abbreviated form without dimensions; for explanation see p. X. Additional remarks, if necessary, are given in the headings of tl'le tables. Frankfurt am Main Adolf Slawisch November 1988 X Remarks on Abbreviation& and Dimensions Many compounds in this volume are presented in tables in which numerous abbreviations are used, the dimensions are omitted for the sake of conciseness. This necessitates the following clarification.

Wortatlas der arabischen Dialekte

Band I: Mensch, Natur, Fauna und Flora

By: Peter Behnstedt,Manfred Woidich

The Wortatlas der arabischen Dialekte / Word Atlas of Arabic Dialects (WAD) intends to provide an unprecedented survey of the lexical richness and diversity of the Arabic dialects as spoken from Uzbekistan to Mauretania and Nigeria, from Malta to Sudan, and including the Ki-Nubi Creole as spoken in Uganda and Kenya. The multilingual word atlas consists of four volumes in total with some 500 onomasiological maps in full colour. Each map presents a topic or notion and its equivalents in Arabic as collected from the dialectological literature (dictionaries, grammars, text collections, ethnographic reports, etc.), from the editors’ own field work, from questionnaires filled out by native speakers or by experts for a certain dialect region, and also from the internet. Polyglot legends in German, English, French, Spanish, Italian accompany the maps to facilitate further access. Each map is followed by a commentary in German, providing more details about the sources and the individual forms, and discussing semantic and etymological issues. All quotations are in their original language. The maps mainly show lexical types, detailed and concrete forms are given in the commentaries. An introduction is provided in Volume 1 in both German and English. Indices of all lexemes in the atlas will be available for each volume. The first volume Band I: Mensch, Natur, Fauna und Flora / Volume 1: Mankind, Nature, Fauna and Flora contains subjects such as ‘family members’, ‘professions’, ‘human qualities’. The second volume, Band II: Materielle Kultur, deals with material culture (‘house’, ‘utensils’, ‘food’, ‘clothing’, ‘vehicles’, etc.). The third volume Band III: Verben, Adjektive, Zeit und Zahlen focuses on verbs, and adjectives. The forth volume Band IV: Funktionswörter und Phraseologisches contains functionwords and some phraseological items. The atlas is indispensable for everyone interested in the modern spoken Arabic language, as well as for dialectologists and for semanticists.
