This research systematically investigates the role of Corporate Venture Capital (CVC) in enhancing knowledge transfer related to sustainability within Europe's mobility sector. Grounded in Resource and Knowledge Based Views, it fills a gap in current literature. Utilizing a quantitative approach through negative binomial regression models, the study explores how startup investments influence patent production among STOXX Europe 600 companies. Findings demonstrate CVC's efficacy in promoting knowledge transfer and green innovation, affirming its role as a tool for open innovation and sector competitiveness. The empirical analysis leads to recommendations for European mobility companies and policymakers to integrate capital, innovation, and sustainability strategies.

Este octavo y último volumen de la obra Probabilidad y Economía, y décimo de la Colección Matemática Financiera y Actuarial en esta Editorial, se dedica al estudio de las estructuras temporales de los tipos de interes en Finanzas. Este libro es muy especial para nosotros porque, desgraciadamente, uno de los coautores de esta serie, Juan Margalef Roig, nos dejo en 2024 y, por tanto, le dedicamos este ultimo volumen a nuestro inestimable compañero y querido amigo, conscientes del enorme vacio que nos deja. No queremos dejar de manifestar publicamente nuestro profundo pesar, expresandole aqui nuestro enorme cariño y total admiracion a lo largo de los muchos años en que compartimos importantes retos cientificos, unido a una profunda amistad.Como en los volumenes anteriores, este libro es de interes para estudiantes de Economia, Matematicas, Fisicas e Ingenierias, y para cualquier persona que quiera conocer e investigar en este campo, ampliando su horizonte teorico mediante nuevos metodos y herramientas matematicas usadas actualmente. En el presente volumen, se amplia el estudio llevado a cabo en los anteriores realizando un analisis muy detallado del modelo de Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM). La estructura de este modelo permite conjeturar que para la resolucion de los problemas anteriores se utilicen herramientas matematicas que se emplean en la Teoria estadistica de campos. Sin embargo, hasta la fecha, no se han encontrado fundamentos probabilisticos de la utilizacion de estas ultimas herramientas matematicas y, por tanto, como esto no encaja en la linea de trabajo de esta obra, se planteara esta posibilidad sin entrar en un estudio exhaustivo y, en cierto sentido, aventurado.Este volumen contiene 3 capitulos y 2 Apendices. En el primero, se presentan los modelos de tipo de interes instantaneo; en particular, los llamados modelos afines (en el Apendice A, se da la demostracion de su teorema fundamental). El segundo es el nucleo basico del libro pues se dedica al estudio pormenorizado del modelo HJM, analizando el mercado financiero de bonos, completo y sin arbitraje. Se destaca la propiedad universal que establece que todo modelo de tipo interes instantaneo de difusion se puede escribir mediante un modelo HJM. Dentro de los modelos particulares del HJM, se obtienen formulas explicitas para los precios de las opciones europeas sobre bonos cupon-cero. Y, en el ultimo capitulo, se aborda directamente la evolucion de los tipos de interes forward. Se hace uso de las propiedades del ruido blanco Gaussiano generalizado (Apendice B) y se utilizan las tecnicas de la integral de caminos de Feynman para obtener de nuevo los precios de las opciones europeas sobre los bonos cupon-cero.

En esta colección de poemas tanka, Fidel Sendagorta teje con delicadeza un canto al amor sereno, ese que se viste con los colores del otoño y se nutre de silencios compartidos. La luna, testigo y cómplice, ilumina versos donde la pasion no grita, sino que susurra entre imagenes de paisajes nocturnos, duermevelas lluviosas y la cadencia espumosa de las olas. Cada poema es un latido contenido, un destello de emocion condensado en cinco versos, un instante de encuentro entre el amor maduro y la naturaleza eterna.

¿Por qué, después de décadas de cooperación, Europa sigue viendo a África como un continente que necesita ser salvado? Carlos Lopes analiza en estas páginas la relación económica entre ambos continentes y las narrativas estigmatizadoras que distorsionan la percepcion del desarrollo africano. Muestra como las politicas europeas, envueltas en un discurso altruista, perpetuan mas bien visiones paternalistas que reemplazan la transformacion real por la caridad, en complicidad con la percepcion equivocada de muchos lideres africanos que piensan que su desarrollo depende de esa actitud. A traves de una mirada lucida y critica, el autor recorre la compleja historia que une a Africa y Europa y explica como el continente africano fue relegado a una posicion periferica en la economia mundial. Una lectura imprescindible para quienes buscan comprender las raices profundas de la desigualdad economica internacional.Carlos Lopes es profesor en la Mandela School of Public Governance de la Universidad de Ciudad del Cabo y presidente del Consejo de la Fundacion Africana del Clima. Ha ocupado varios puestos de responsabilidad en las Naciones Unidas, incluida la direccion de la Comision Economica para Africa (2012-2016). En Los Libros de la Catarata ha publicado Africa en transformacion (2019) y Cambio estructural en Africa (2023).
