H.拉德马赫（Harts Rademacher，1892-1969），拉德马赫先后任教于柏林大学、汉堡大学和布雷斯劳大学。当他1922年转到汉堡大学任教时，他的兴趣也转向了数论，这主要受到赫克的影响，赫克三年前来到汉堡工作。从1928年起，他开始研究一些与模形式和解析数论有关的工作。1936年，他得到了最著名的课题，划分数的渐近展开式，这项工作是对哈代-拉马努金工作的深入和细化（大概在同一时期，塞尔伯格也得到了同样的结果）。 O.特普利茨（Otto Toeplitz，1881-1940），1905年取得代数几何方向的博士学位。1906年前往数学圣地哥廷根，1907年成为那里的无薪讲师。在希尔伯特的影响下，特普利茨在哥廷根的七年里研究泛函分析，取得了重要成果，例如得到了现在以他命名的特普利茨矩阵、特普利茨算子。特普利茨知识面广，热爱科普，对很多哥廷根数...(展开全部)

The author of The Joy of Mathematics explores the mathematics of nature, literature and art. This fascinating look at the surprising ways mathematics influences the everyday world takes an abstract universe and anchors it to the "real" worlds of science, history and the arts in an intriguing way. Photos and line drawings.

Mathematical logic grew out of philosophical questions regarding the foundations of mathematics, but logic has now outgrown its philosophical roots, and has become an integral part of mathematics in general. This book is designed for students who plan to specialize in logic, as well as for those who are interested in the applications of logic to other areas of mathematics. Used...(展开全部)

This long-awaited book aims at a rigorous mathematical treatment of the theory of pricing and hedging of derivative securities by the principle of 'no arbitrage'. The first part presents a relatively elementary introduction, restricting itself to the case of finite probability spaces. The second part consists of an updated edition of seven original research papers by the author...(展开全部)

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION This book is intended for readers in transition from school mathematics to the fully-fledged type of thinking used by professional mathematicians. It should prove useful to first-year students in universities and colleges, and to advanced students in school contemplating further study in pure mathematics. It should also be of interest to a wider cla...(展开全部)

Thirty years ago the bond and option markets were dominated by traders who had learned their craft by experience. By the mid-1990s the old school grizzled traders had been replaced by a new breed of quantitative analysts, applying mathematics to the "art" of trading and making of it a science. A similar phenomenon is happening in poker. The grizzled "road gamblers" are being re...(展开全部)
