Ten amazing curves personally selected by one of today's bestselling math writers
Curves for the Mathematically Curious is an enticing collection of ten mathematical curves, selected by Julian Havil for their significance, mathematical interest, and because many are downright beautiful. Each chapter of this anthology gives an account of the history and definition of each curve, providing a glimpse into the elegant and often surprising mathematics involved in their creation and evolution. In telling the ten stories, Havil visits many mathematicians and other innovators, some whose fame has withstood the passing of years, others who have blended into comparative obscurity. As well as the numerous mathematicians, you will meet in particular Pierre B zier, whose name is perpetuated though his ubiquitous and eponymous curves, and Adolphe Quetelet, who trumpeted the ubiquity of the Normal curve but whose name now hides behind the modern body mass index. These and other ingenious thinkers contributed to the challenges, incongruities, and insights to be found in this study of these remarkable curves--and now you can share in this adventure.
Curves for the Mathematically Curious is a rigorous and enriching mathematical experience for anyone interested in curves, and the book is designed so that the reader who chooses can follow the details with pencil and paper. Every curve has a story worthy of telling. This compendium tells the stories of ten remarkable curves personally selected by one of today's best-loved writers of popular mathematics.

Описание: From the Sunday Times No. 1 bestselling author of The Girls Who Disappeared One lied. One died.
The world of work is changing exponentially. Rapid technological innovation and global forces are compelling businesses to disrupt traditional models and adopt new digital strategies and skills to compete. This requires new future-fit thinking, as well as the habits and capabilities to learn, adapt, experiment and fail fast.
In POWER-UP8, Debbie Craig reveals why the world needs more people who are:
- Intensely curious (about themselves, others and the world),
- Originally creative (experimenting, learning and willing to fail),
- Courageously committed (to their vision for self, team or cause),
- Consciously choosing (where to focus attention and how to show up),
- Critical thinkers (who can resolve dilemmas and make meaning out of noise),
- Trust building collaborators (that combine perspectives and strengths into lasting relationships and value),
- Change influencers (that navigate the maze of change for positive impact) and,
POWER-UP8 offers readers a guide to rapidly build the most important beliefs and habits required for success in the next decade - using the latest brain and behavioural science of learning and change. These 8 capabilities have been carefully chosen from a unique combination of research and practical experience in developing organisations, leaders and learners over the last 20+ years.

Автор: Ziemba, William T. Lleo, Sebastien Название: Stock market crashes: predictable and unpredictable and what to do about them ISBN: 9813222611 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789813222618 Издательство: World Scientific Publishing Рейтинг: Цена: 32730.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book presents studies of stock market crashes big and small that occur from bubbles bursting or other reasons. By a bubble we mean that prices are rising just because they are rising and that prices exceed fundamental values. A bubble can be a large rise in prices followed by a steep fall. The focus is on determining if a bubble actually exists, on models to predict stock market declines in bubble-like markets and exit strategies from these bubble-like markets. We list historical great bubbles of various markets over hundreds of years.We present four models that have been successful in predicting large stock market declines of ten percent plus that average about minus twenty-five percent. The bond stock earnings yield difference model was based on the 1987 US crash where the S&P 500 futures fell 29% in one day. The model is based on earnings yields relative to interest rates. When interest rates become too high relative to earnings, there almost always is a decline in four to twelve months. The initial out of sample test was on the Japanese stock market from 1948-88. There all twelve danger signals produced correct decline signals. But there were eight other ten percent plus declines that occurred for other reasons. Then the model called the 1990 Japan huge -56% decline. We show various later applications of the model to US stock declines such as in 2000 and 2007 and to the Chinese stock market. We also compare the model with high price earnings decline predictions over a sixty year period in the US. We show that over twenty year periods that have high returns they all start with low price earnings ratios and end with high ratios. High price earnings models have predictive value and the BSEYD models predict even better. Other large decline prediction models are call option prices exceeding put prices, Warren Buffett's value of the stock market to the value of the economy adjusted using BSEYD ideas and the value of Sotheby's stock. Investors expect more declines than actually occur. We present research on the positive effects of FOMC meetings and small cap dominance with Democratic Presidents. Marty Zweig was a wall street legend while he was alive. We discuss his methods for stock market predictability using momentum and FED actions. These helped him become the leading analyst and we show that his ideas still give useful predictions in 2016-2017. We study small declines in the five to fifteen percent range that are either not expected or are expected but when is not clear. For these we present methods to deal with these situations.The last four January-February 2016, Brexit, Trump and French elections are analzyed using simple volatility-S&P 500 graphs. Another very important issue is can you exit bubble-like markets at favorable prices. We use a stopping rule model that gives very good exit results. This is applied successfully to Apple computer stock in 2012, the Nasdaq 100 in 2000, the Japanese stock and golf course membership prices, the US stock market in 1929 and 1987 and other markets. We also show how to incorporate predictive models into stochastic investment models.

Описание: We are living in the age of imagination and communication. This book, about the new ways time is experienced and organised in post-industrial workplaces, argues that the key feature of working time within knowledge, and other workplaces, is unpredictability, creating a culture that seeks to insert acceptance of unpredictability as a new `standard`.
