这些资料和书籍是我根据那个program要求的主干课程整理的,有的除了课本和参考书外,还有lecture notes. 这些notes一般就是我上课时老师用的。有些课我也没有上过,如果有notes的话就是我发信去问老师要来的,不过应该是两年前的东西了,可能有点儿旧。但我想基本的方法应该差不多,应该还是有一定的参考价值的。我就从简单的课程开始逐一介绍,大伙儿如果觉得哪一部分有用,就根据自己的需要下载好了。
1. STAT 243 Introduction to Mathematical Finance
介绍最基本的方法,应该算是最基础的课程了,比较适合入门。除了lecture notes外,还有两本课本
(1). Arbitrage in Continuous time, by Tomas Bjork, 3rd edition
(2). Mathematics of Financial Derivatives- A Student Introduction, by Wilmott
第一本是新版的,第二本是特别经典的一本书,想入门的朋友可以下来看一看。
2. STAT 240 Statistical Methods in Finance
非常popular的课程,主要几种于Finance统计方法。任课老师自己有一本书,也用在另外一门课 Statistical Methods and Models for Risk Management and Surveillance.
这里就一起发了吧
Text: The Econometrics of Financial Markets,by Campbell John
Reference: Statistical Models and Methods for Financial Markets, by Tze Leung Lai and Haipeng Xing

- Economics - The Econometrics of Financial Markets, A Solution Manual to.pdf
3. STAT 310 Theory of Probability
特别tough的课,但是如果想搞一些financial engineering的research又不得不学。可能有的朋友还有些兴趣,就发在这里吧。老师的lecture notes 就已经很全面了,但我感觉全都是干货,学起来比较吃力,倒是老师列举的一些课本和参考书读起来效果好的多。
(1). lecture notes. 这是一整年概率课的lecture notes,非常全面。
(2). Real analysis and probability by Dudley, 如果想从理论高度提高自身概率水平,不可错过
(3). Probability: theory and examples by Durrett, 网上有很多第2,3版的下载,附件里是前几个月刚出的第四版
(4). Probability and Measure, by Billingsley, 3rd edition, 超经典的理论概率入门
(5). Probability with martingales, by David Williams, 特别好的入门书籍,我当初上课的时候什么都听不懂,就是拿这本书认真学了一些,慢慢的就懂一点儿了,呵呵
(6). Brownian Motion and Stochastic Calculus, by Karatzas and Shreve, 大家肯定都知道这书有多经典,板上好像贴了无数次了,我就不贴了,有兴趣的朋友搜一下就有了
(7). Brownian motion, by Peter Maorters and Yuval Peres, 讲brownian motion有用。

- Williams, Probability with martingales.djvu
4. MATH 227 Partial Differential Equations and Diffusion Processes
这个program对数学要求比较高,一般好学校PhD level的 FE research 需要学PDE,尤其是偏numerical方面的,一般比较好的书是strauss的Partial Differential Equations: An Introduction 和 Evans 的 Partial differential equations
附件里是老师上课的lecture notes 和 strauss 的第一版,我找不到第二版的,那位如果有的话,不妨也发上来共享一下:)
(1) Lecture notes
(2) Partial Differential Equations: An Introduction, by Strauss, 1st edition (国内有卖)
- partial_differential_equations_an_introduction_strauss.djvu
5. MATH 236 Introduction to Stochastic Differential Equations
不用说,大家都知道这是FE的必修课程,这里用的书就是 Oksendal 的 stochastic differential equations 6th edition, 国内可以买到。另外protter的书也值得一看,是不多的从semi-martingale讲的书之一,而且也不是很难。另外,如果概率背景不是很强,又不愿意花许多时间去学理论的人可以看一看Grimmett的probability and random processes,内容笔记哦啊简单,而且有保持了概率的严格性。
(1) Stochastic Differential Equations, by Oksendal, 6th edition (国内有卖)
(2) Stochastic Integration And Differential Equations, by Protter, 2nd edition (好像国内也有卖)
(3) Probability and random processes, by Grimmett and Stirzaker, 3rd Edition
- Protter_Stochastic Integration_And_Differential_Equations_2ED.djvu
- Grimmett_Stirzaker_Probability_and_random_processes_3rd_Edition.djvu
6. MATH 239 Computation and Simulation in Finance
这也是核心课程,FE 里许多model都没有analytical solution,需要numerical solution, 如何能高效地得到比较准确的解恨重要。这就数Glasserman的书,一般大部分学校这个topic的课都用这本书。就我个人感觉来说,真的是一本好书,认真读了并多加实践,就能掌握大部分流行的numerical methods.
Text: Monte Carlo Methods in Financial Engineering by P. Glasserman
- Math_239_Syllabus.pdf
- Monte Carlo Methods in Financial Engineering - P. Glasserman - Springer.pdf
7. MS&E 347 Credit Risk Modeling and Management
讲risk modeling的,推荐的课本主要有三本,我想认真学完一本应该就很扎实了。
(1) Credit Risk: Pricing, Measurement and Management by D. Duffie and K. Singleton
(2) Credit Risk: Theory and Applications by D. Lando
(3) An Introduction to Credit Risk Modeling by C. Bluhm, L. Overbeck and C. Wagner
8. STAT 220 Stochastic Control in Continuous Time
好像很少看见有学校开stochastic control 的课,但finance还是特别有用的。附件里有另外一门随机过程的lecture notes,是修STAT 220 的prerequisite,相信大部分人都应该掌握了,发上来做个参考吧。另外就是课程的lecture notes 和 推荐的课本,如果想在这个方面深入的朋友估计可能会用的到。
(1) Lecture notes for master level stochastic processes
(2) STAT 220 lecture notes
(3) Text: Applied Stochastic Control of Jump Diffusions, by Oksendal (附件是第一版,第二版我没有找到)
9. STATS 315B Modern Applied Statistics Data Mining
介于理论和实际中的数据挖掘课程。用的课本就是经典hastie的 statistical learning theory。我在附件里附上了课程的网址,有兴趣的朋友可以上去参考一下。
Text: The Elements of Statistical Learning, by Hastie and etc. 2nd edition
- Course_Website.txt
- The_Elements_of_Statistical_Learning_2nd_Ed.pdf
下面几门是相关课程,不是MFM program 要求的核心课程,但是许多想读FE PhD 人都修过
10. MS&E 241 Investment Science
最最基本入门课程,许多不太quantitative 的学生都修过,的确比较简单。用的课本就是luenberger 的 “Investment Science”,我觉得特别适合一点儿背景都没有的朋友,能很快入门。
Text: Investment Science, by Luenberger, (国内有卖)
11. MS&E 321 Stochastic System
高于一般功课PhD level 的随机过程,比较难,适合想从基础 applied stochastic processes 向上进阶的朋友。附件里有 老师的 lecture notes. 我还把老师推荐而且的确比较有用的参考书也发上来了。顺便说一句,Resnick的书的确很好,如果能学校来,基本上一般的概率随机背景就都可以了。Karlin and Taylor 的两本书特别适合一心一意要去做金融行业工作的人. Feller的两本书太经典了,适合想从理论上提高的朋友。呵呵。

14. Levy Processes
Financial modeling with levy processes 这些年很热,附件里基本上囊括了所有我能找到的资料,一些经典书籍找不到,所以没有。有兴趣的朋友可以下载
(1) Financial Modeling with Jump processes, (这是超经典的书,但附件是第一版,第二版目前我还没有找到)
