I must admit that initally I was attracted to this field was because of its connection to econophysics, an interdisciplinary field which mainly involved statistical mechanics to model financial markets. In any case, no existing reference treats the general case of a space-time-dependent diffusion coefficient adequately, the case of most interest for the dynamics of financial markets. Acquiring a sophisticated understanding of financial markets and our proprietary research techniques. The Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets by J Voit. The Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets,. Taking into account the long tradition in the analysis of complex systems in statistical physics, scaling laws suggest to look at financial data as the result of social processes of a large ensemble of interacting sub-units. But this extrapolation overestimates our ability to statistically manage reality's irreducible complexity and to eliminate uncertainty. Springer [share_ebook] Statistical Models and Methods for. Using applied statistical techniques to design and develop quantitative models which predict price movements. Kinetic exchange models of markets;. There are two mistakes on pages 65-68. This book presents statistical methods and models of importance to quantitative finance and links finance theory to market practice via statistical modeling and decision making. Predatory trading can cause a systemic collapse of financial markets in the absence of interaction-limiting 'firewalls' (Chapter 10 by Anita Mehta).

Very very good read, worth to buy it.
