Use when choosing or sharpening a problem for Mathematical Finance (Wiley) — tests whether the question is a methodologically novel, rigorously tractable contribution to financial modelling (stochastic analysis, pricing, risk, portfolio, microstructure) rather than a routine computational application to data.

When to use

• Choosing a problem for Mathematical Finance
• Sharpening a financial-mathematics idea
• Testing if a result clears the journal bar
• Choosing between incremental extension and novel contribution
• Evaluating methodological novelty
• Assessing tractability of a theorem
• Verifying fit for stochastic analysis tradition

When not to use

• Routine computation on financial data
• Purely empirical or econometric finance results
• Incremental special cases of known theorems
• Models proposed without proofs of formal properties
