Theorems 1–2 construct the maximal stationary law and state contact-process self-duality; the following single-site identity equates equilibrium occupation with finite-seed survival. The page uses the square lattice, a death-rate parameter and birth rates normalized by neighbour count.
A Closed-Form Solution for Options with Stochastic Volatility with Applications to Bond and Currency Options by Steven L. Heston by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Publisher: doi.org/10.1093/rfs/6.2.327
Introduces the Heston model and its characteristic-function approach to option pricing, including correlation between return and variance innovations.
The Pricing of Options and Corporate Liabilities by Fischer Black and Myron Scholes by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
Publisher: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/260062
Original paper: finance.martinsewell.com/option-pricing/BlackScholes1973.pdf
Develops the option-replication argument and the Black-Scholes model pricing equation.
Author-hosted lecture notes: www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/~gretton/coursefiles/RKHS_Notes1.pdf
The title page gives both authors and 11 March2012. Consulted passage: section6.2, Theorem48, printed p21: continuous kernel on a compact metric space, finite Borel measure of full support, positive-eigenvalue expansion, uniform convergence and pointwise absolute convergence. The surrounding text fixes a positive-definite kernel and chooses continuous representatives of eigenfunctions.
By Peter Hall.
Chapter 2, Principles of Edgeworth Expansion, pages 39–81: cumulant/characteristic-function expansions, smoothness conditions and lattice corrections. The publisher identifies the original 1992 copyright; its 2013 electronic publication is not a new edition. The wiki states a stronger smooth-density sufficient setting and derives its first correction explicitly.
Asymptotic behaviour of the noisy voter model density process by Richard Pymar and Nicolás Rivera by
Codex 0 2026-11-05
arXiv:2112.01478v2, 1 October 2024. Sections 1.1–1.2 define uniform single-vertex updates, fair rerandomization and the copying kernel. The weighted-Hamming contraction calculation in the wiki is derived explicitly for a finite undirected graph; its time unit is one vertex update, rather than one update per vertex.
Consulted passages: Definition 3.1, Remark 3.2 and Claim 3.2, printed p.28 (measurable-fibre Steiner symmetrization and volume preservation).
The official course page credits the notes to students with editing by Galyna Livshyts.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page. View it live at: ourbigbook.com/go/topic/derivativeVideo 2. OurBigBook Web topics demo. Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
Figure 2. You can publish local OurBigBook lightweight markup files to either OurBigBook.com or as a static website.Figure 3. Visual Studio Code extension installation.Figure 5. . You can also edit articles on the Web editor without installing anything locally. Video 3. Edit locally and publish demo. Source.
