6 Acknowledgements There is a long list of people to acknowledge and thank for their support in preparing this book. I want to begin by thanking Jürg Tödtli who supported my interest in the field of quantitative finance even though I did not know the term at that time while we were at the Institute of Automatic Control at the ETH Zurich many decades ago. This interest was triggered and then re-triggered in countless discussions over the years with my uncle ErgünYüksel. Special thanks are certainly due to Manfred Morari, the former head of the Institute of Automatic Control at the ETH Zurich, who encouraged me to write this book and to publish it in the Lecture Notes in Control and Information Science series of Springer Verlag and who also offered me infrastructure and library access during the preparation of the manuscript. Very special thanks go to Florian Herzog of Swissquant who supported me while I was writing this book by offering the use of his lecture notes of Stochastic Control, a graduate course he held at the ETH Zurich. I did so with gratitude in Chapters 5 and 9. The data for the empirical study reported in Chapter 8 were graciously supplied by Özgür Tanrverdi of Access Turkey Opportunities Fund for several years, to whom I am indebted. I also want to thank Jens Galschiøt, the famous Danish sculptor for allowing me to use a photograph of his impressive and inspiring sculpture Survival of the Fattest to illustrate the inequality in global wealth distribution. Parts of this book evolved from a graduate class I gave at Boğaziçi University in Istanbul during the last years and from project work by many students there, notably Efe Doğan Yılmaz, Ufuk Uyan, Ceren Sevinç, Mehmet Hilmi Elihoş, Yusuf Koçyiğit and Yasin Çotur. I am most grateful to Yasin, a Ph.D. candidate at Imperial College in London now, who helped with calculations and with valuable feedback on earlier versions of the manuscript. I am indebted to my former student Yaşar Baytın, my old friend Sedat Ölçer, Head of Computer Science and Engineering at Bilgi University in Istanbul, Bülent Sankur, Professor Emeritus of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Boğaziçi vii
7 viii Acknowledgements University, and especially my dear wife Hande Hacısalihzade for proofreading parts of the manuscript and their most valuable suggestions. I am grateful to Petra Jantzen and Shahid S. Mohammed at Springer for their assistance with the printing of this volume. Hande, of course, also deserves special thanks for inspiring me (and certainly not only for writing limericks!), hours of lively discussions, her encouragement, and her endless support during the preparation of this book.
