This study is motivated by the proposed upgrades of a whole sequence of Fermilab's accelerators; Linac, Booster, Main Ring or Main Injector and the Tevatron. Two leading high-luminosity collider upgrade scenarios involve larger numbers of colliding bunches of higher intensity. This obviously raises a question of coherent instabilities, which was already quite vital in the present fixed target and collider scenarios. Furthermore, multi-bunch instability limitations due to the resistive wall impedance are studied for the fixed target mode. The same question of coupled bunch instabilities is also addressed for new collider schemes involving large number of colliding bunches (up to 100 on 100 bunches), where the inter-bunch communication may become important. 4 refs.

Based around recent lectures given at the prestigious Ritsumeikan conference, the tutorial and expository articles contained in this volume are an essential guide for practitioners and graduates alike who use stochastic calculus in finance.Among the eminent contributors are Paul Malliavin and Shinzo Watanabe, pioneers of Malliavin Calculus. The coverage also includes a valuable review of current research on credit risks in a mathematically sophisticated way contrasting with existing economics-oriented articles.
