Seminario di Probabilità - Università di Padova
by Paolo Dai Pra 28 Apr '14

28 Apr '14

Ho il piacere di invitarvi al seguente seminario, che si terrà lunedì 5 Maggio, alle ore 14:30, nell'aula 2BC30 della Torre Archimede presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Padova. SPEAKER: Jacopo Corbetta AFFILIATION: Università di Milano - Bicocca TITLE: SMILE ASYMPTOTICS IN A MULTISCALING STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY MODEL ABSTRACT: We consider a stochastic volatility model which captures some relevant stylized facts of financial series, including the so-called multiscaling of moments. We obtain sharp large deviations estimates for the price, based on a large deviations principle for suitable functionals of a point process, which is of independent interest. This yields explicit asymptotic formulas for the price of European options, and for the related implied volatility, both in the small maturity and large strike regimes. In particular, we show that implied volatility for out-of-the-money options explodes as the maturity vanishes (even though the price has continuous paths), with an explicit limiting shape.

seminario di M. Erbar a Pisa
by Marco Romito 24 Apr '14

24 Apr '14

Il giorno 28 aprile 2014, alle ore 14:30, presso la sala seminari del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Pisa, si terrà il seguente seminario: M. Erbar (Bonn Universitaet): Gradient flows of the entropy for jump processes In the last decade optimal transport has proven very successful in the study of diffusion processes and the associated PDEs.The aim of this talk is to present a link between the theory of jump processes and non-local operators and techniques from optimal transport. We introduce a new transport distance between probability measures that is built from a Levy jump kernel via a non-local variant of the Benamou-Brenier formula. We study various properties of this distance. As the main result we identify the semigroup generated by the associated non-local operator as the gradient flow of the relative entropy w.r.t. the new distance. This applies e.g. to the fractional heat equation and provides a non-local analogue of the celebrated result by Jordan--Kinderlehrer--Otto. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. m.

Call for papers for the Special Issue on (extended deadline) "Increasing Innovation Opportunities by Unlocking the Value of Big Data" to be published on the "Electronic Journal of Applied Statistical Analysis: Decision Support Systems and Services Evalutation" ### Guest Editors: Valentina Ndou,Faculty of Innovation for Engineering, University of Salento (ITA) Mirjeta Beqiri, Gonzaga University, Spokane, WA, (USA) Stefano M. Iacus, Department of Economics, Management and Quantitative Methods, University of Milan (ITA) ### Overview: The advent of new communication technologies and especially the exponential growth of social media web 2.0, from blogs, Facebook and Twitter to LinkedIn and YouTube, has created vast opportunities for firms and managers to get closer to customers, to gain a wealth of information about their behaviors and preferences, as well as to identify new market trends and new opportunities to remain competitive. It is known that firms today operate in the era of Big Data Revolution, overwhelmed with data that are available via web to almost everyone. The content and information that customers create in web 2.0 platforms constitute a valuable asset for firms to directly tap into the customer’s preferences and needs, as the most valuable source for attaining direct and reliable market information. ### Aim: Based on these recent trends, this special issue invites research articles and papers that put forth different approaches, statistical models, and decision making systems able to analyze the available data for gaining insights and creating new knowledge that leads to innovation and creativity. ### Topics: This special issue seeks original contribution on the following topics: 1. Techniques, tools, approaches, and methodologies used for analyzing data and information 2. Statistical Analysis for big data 3. Data and knowledge modelling techniques 4. Stimulating innovation and improving performance through statistical data analysis 5. Value of data for new business models, products, and services 6. Data management as a driver of performance and competitiveness 7. Value co-creation through data and information exchange 8. Transforming the value of data using real time analytics 9. Business optimization techniques through data analysis 10. Decision making process in the big data era 11. Role of statistical models in unlocking the value of web data 12. Real time analytics 13. Privacy, security, and intellectual property issues in the era of big data. ### Submission guidelines: Original research papers will be considered. ### Important Dates: Abstract submission: 20th March, 2014 (extended to 15th April, 2014) Review decisions sent to authors: 30th April 2014 Full paper submission: 30th July, 2014 ### Further Information: For further information, please contact: ejasa(a)unisalento.it or visit http://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/ejasa_dss/announcement/view/21 Stefano ps: Com'on statisticians!

Seminario Zorana Grbac a Padova

ANNUNCIO DI SEMINARIO La Prof. Zorana GRBAC dell'Universit? di Parigi-Diderot (VII) terra' il seguente seminario lunedi' 14 aprile alle ore 15.30 in Aula 1BC45 del Dipartimento di Matematica, via Trieste 63, Padova. TITLE: Post-crisis interest rate models driven by Levy processes ABSTRACT: The recent credit crisis and the European sovereign debt crisis have impacted all financial markets and influenced the way derivatives are priced and hedged. In this talk we focus in particular on interest rate derivative models. When considering these models, two major changes with respect to the pre-crisis models should be taken into account. Firstly, a variety of spreads have developed between the rates that had been essentially the same before the crises. This is known as the multiple-curve phenomenon. Secondly, the crises have highlighted the native form of credit risk, namely the counterparty risk, as well as the funding issues. To meet these new modeling requirements, we develop a multiple-curve model, set in the HJM framework and driven by a Levy process. The use of Levy drivers allows an optimal balance between the flexibility needed to calibrate the model jointly to cap and swaption multiple-curve prices on one side, and the low number of Markov factors allowing the computation of counterparty risk and funding adjustments (CVA) on the other side. The pricing formulas in this framework are presented and possible Levy specifications discussed. We proceed with the calibration of the model and finally use the calibrated model as an underlying model for CVA computations. We conclude with a short and illustrative numerical example considering a basis swap. This is joint work with S. Cr?pey, N. Ngor and D. Skovmand ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
