Book Description

ISBN-10: 0792352963 | ISBN-13: 978-0792352969 | Publication Date: November 30, 1998 | Edition: 1

The objective of the book is to discuss and explain the problems caused by the investment process in a world that is so full of change that it has become uncertain. For this reason the author presents a very wide range of theoretical and technical elements gathered from the new mathematics of uncertainty, both in its numerical and non-numerical aspects. In this regard an important role is played by the theories of fuzzy sub-sets, forgotten effects, affinities, expertons and many others that are being introduced with such success, in an attempt to arrive at a solution to the complex problems of management and the economy. Audience: Researchers, consultants and students interested in the application of mathematics to economics, management and investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nueva concepción de la teoría de la inversión, June 25, 2004

JUAN CARLOS GUTIERREZ BETANCUR (Medell�n, Ant., Colombia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Investment in Uncertainty (Applied Optimization) (Hardcover)

Considero que el libro escrito por el Dr. Gil tiene el gran mérito de ofrecer el primer enfoque comprehensivo e integral para enfocar la teoría de inversiones corporativas desde el punto de vista de las lógicas multivalentes, incluyendo subconjuntos borrosos, retículos de Galois, teoría de afinidades y programación dinámica difusa. Ofreciendo estos nuevos enfoques de gestión con el fin de encarar efectivamente la incertidumbre imperante en el entorno económico financiero.

Un aspecto por mejorar en futuras ediciones del libro consistiría en la borrosificación de los enfoques para invertir en activos reales con opciones (opciones reales) incorporando variables aleatorias y números borrosos.
