Stochastic Dominance
Concepts similar to stochastic dominance have been known for many years, but the three papers published by Hadar and Russell and Hanoch and Levy in 1969 and by Rothschild and Stiglitz in 19701 paved the way for a new paradigm called stochastic dominance (SD), with hundreds of studies following these three studies. While Hanoch and Levy and Hadar and Russell developed First and Second degree…

Stochastic Control Theory
The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to stochastic controls theory, via the method of dynamic programming. The dynamic programming principle, originated by R. Bellman in 1950s, is known as the two stage optimization procedure. When we control the behavior of a stochastic dynamical system in order to optimize some payoff or cost function, which depends on the control inputs…

Energy Law: An Introduction
The aim of this short text is simply to introduce a reader to this topic. It is intended for a global audience and rather than being restricted to potential energy law students of a particular country. It is also written for students of other disciplines such as geographers, social scientists and engineers. It should also be engaging to those in a variety of professional practices who want an a…

Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria
This book summarizes the current state of knowledge concerning bacteria that use halogenated organic compounds as respiratory electron acceptors. The discovery of organohalide-respiring bacteria has expanded the range of electron acceptors used for energy conservation, and serves as a prime example of how scientific discoveries are enabling innovative engineering solutions that have transformed…

Stochastic Calculus and Applications
The theory of probability and stochastic calculus has grown significantly since the publication of the first edition of this book. The theory of stochastic integration and semimartingales, a relatively recent development at the time of the first edition, is now a standard and significant part of the working mathematician’s toolkit. Concepts such as Backward SDEs, which were unheard of in 1…

Energy Law in Brazil Oil, Gas and Biofuels
This book describes the energy-law situation in Brazil. It focuses on three specific energy sectors: oil, natural gas and biofuel. The decision to concentrate on these areas takes into account the role that these energy sectors play in the economic, political and legal systems in Brazil, as well as the fact that they are the primary subjects of current discussions surrounding economic regulatio…
