This textbook bridges the gap between theory and application in financial mathematics. It provides a solid foundation in key concepts and tools for building realistic models, supported by a variety of examples and exercises. Aimed at advanced undergraduates and first-year graduate students, it also benefits those in related fields seeking a deeper understanding of finance.

This monograph is the first to develop a mathematical theory of gravitational lensing. Part III employs the ideas and results of singularity theory to put gravitational lensing on a rigorous mathematical foundation.
