Introduction to Quantitative Investment:
数理科学和金融市场,这两种不同领域的研究,在数学本质上是有所相通的。
20世纪以来,许多顶尖数理资讯科学家对金融领域的研究,做出卓越贡献。其中有些学者
,更将研发的理论和模型,实际运用在金融投资的决策上,并获得优异的成功和财富。以
下是历史上重要的研究人员和成果:
-1959年 奥斯本发表<股票市场的布朗运动>,论文中肯定个股股价的分布状况,应该趋近
于对数常态分布 (log-normal distribution)。
-1958~1960+年 碎形几何重量级数学家曼德布洛特任职于IBM期间,对大宗棉花,黄金,石
油和股票,债券的价格分布提出重要研究。
-1960~1970+年 信息论之父夏农和爱德华˙索普合作,将其研究应用于金融领域,索普
更创立早期的避险基金,获得优异的投资绩效。
-1970+年 具有物理学背景的布雷克和休斯合作,研究出期货和选择权定价公式
Black-Scholes model。
-1970~1980+年 知名混沌理论学者法默和派卡德用电脑算出微分方程,预测轮盘滚珠落点
。后更运用其理论,研究复杂的国际金融系统。进行统计套利。
-1993年 IBM削减研发经费,一些数学很强的科学家离开IBM到华尔街,进入全球顶尖的
量化避险基金-文艺复兴基金,并取得优异表现。
-1990+年 研究临界现象的地球物理学者索耐特,将研究纤维断裂,地震的数学方法,应用
在研究金融危机,并成功预测1997/ 2007~08金融风暴。在2004年索耐特也使用其研究方
法,运用Amazon.com的资料,预测畅销书的出现。
