Foundations of Quantitative Finance, Book VI: Densities, Transformed Distributions, and Limit Theorems
Chapman & Hall/CRC (Verlag)
978-1-032-22949-2 (ISBN)
Published under the collective title of Foundations of Quantitative Finance, this set of ten books develops the advanced topics in mathematics that finance professionals need to advance their careers. These books expand the theory most do not learn in graduate finance programs, or in most financial mathematics undergraduate and graduate courses.
As an investment executive and authoritative instructor, Robert R. Reitano presents the mathematical theories he encountered and used in nearly three decades in the financial services industry and two decades in academia where he taught in highly respected graduate programs.
Readers should be quantitatively literate and familiar with the developments in the earlier books in the set. While the set offers a continuous progression through these topics, each title can be studied independently.

Robert R. Reitano is Professor of the Practice of Finance at the Brandeis International Business School where he specializes in risk management and quantitative finance, and where he previously served as MSF Program Director, and Senior Academic Director. He has a Ph.D. in Mathematics from MIT, is a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries, and a Chartered Enterprise Risk Analyst. He has taught as Visiting Professor at Wuhan University of Technology School of Economics, Reykjavik University School of Business, and as Adjunct Professor in Boston University’s Masters Degree program in Mathematical Finance. Dr. Reitano consults in investment strategy and asset/liability risk management and previously had a 29-year career at John Hancock/Manulife in investment strategy and asset/liability management, advancing to Executive Vice President & Chief Investment Strategist. His research papers have appeared in a number of journals and have won an Annual Prize of the Society of Actuaries and two F.M.
