Social relationships in the church and health: problems and prospects -- Church-based social support: getting help during difficult times -- Church-based companion friends -- Social relationships that arise from formal roles in the church -- Negative interaction in the church: exploring the dark side of religion -- Exploring the pervasive influence of social structural factors -- Conclusions: taking a broader perspective and identifying next steps.

Sommario/riassunto

A growing number of studies indicate that social ties that are formed by older people in the church have a significant positive impact on their physical and mental health. Aging in the Church: How Social Relationships Affect Health by Neal Krause constitutes the first attempt to provide a comprehensive assessment of the various types of relationships that stem from church involvement.

Preface: Vicky Henderson & Ronnie Sircar -- Philip Protter: A Mathematical Theory of Financial Bubbles -- Fred Espen Benth: Stochastic Volatility and Dependency in Energy Markets – Multi-Factor Modelling -- Paolo Guasoni: Portfolio Choice with Transaction Costs: a User's Guide -- Dan Crisan: Cubature Methods and Applications.

Sommario/riassunto

The current volume presents four chapters touching on some of the most important and modern areas of research in Mathematical Finance: asset price bubbles (by Philip Protter); energy markets (by Fred Espen Benth); investment under transaction costs (by Paolo Guasoni and Johannes Muhle-Karbe); and numerical methods for solving stochastic equations (by Dan Crisan, K. Manolarakis and C. Nee).The Paris-Princeton Lecture Notes on Mathematical Finance, of which this is the fifth volume, publish cutting-edge research in self-contained, expository articles from renowned specialists. The aim is to produce a series of articles that can serve as an introductory reference source for research in the field.
