The author further presents detailed applications to numerical aspects of pricing and hedging of financial derivatives, risk measures (such as value-at-risk and conditional value-at-risk), implicitation of parameters, and calibration.Aimed at graduate students and advanced undergraduate students, this book contains useful examples and over 150 exercises, making it suitable for self-study. %G English %L hal-03907148 %U https://cnrs.hal.science/hal-03907148 %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ CNRS %~ INSMI %~ USPC %~ LPSM %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SORBONNE-UNIV %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ UP-SCIENCES %~ ALLIANCE-SU
