DESCRIPTION
Our research interests cover a number of different inter-related areas.
These interests include mathematical finance and more generally probability and statistics, including (but not limited to) stochastic processes, stochastic control, and nonlinear filtering. In the mathematical finance sector research is active on derivatives pricing and hedging; asset price dynamics; interest rate, inflation and FX models; credit risk models; equity and commodities models; volatility smile modeling; counterparty risk (CVA) pricing; liquidity modeling; mortality risk; real options; risk management; portfolio optimisation under constraints; computational finance; information-based asset pricing; econophysics, differential geometric approach to statistics, information geometry.
