 Networks in FinanceAnna Nagurney
Chapter 17 in Handbook on Information Technology in Finance, 2008, pp 383-419 from Springer Abstract: Abstract Finance is concerned with the study of capital flows over space and time in the presence of risk. As a subject, it has benefited from numerous mathematical and engineering tools that have been developed and utilized for the modeling, analysis, and computation of solutions in the present complex economic environment. Indeed, the financial landscape today is characterized by the existence of distinct sectors in economies, the proliferation of new financial instruments, with increasing diversification of portfolios internationally, various transaction costs, the increasing growth of electronic transactions through advances in information technology and, in particular, the Internet, and different types of governmental policy interventions. Hence, rigorous methodological tools that can capture the complexity and richness of financial decision-making today and that can take advantage of powerful computer resources have never been more important and needed for financial quantitative analyses.
