Special Issue "Stochastic Optimization Methods in Economics, Finance and Insurance"
by c.ceci＠unich.it 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

Dear all, we are glad to inform you that submissions for the Special Issue "Stochastic Optimization Methods in Economics, Finance and Insurance" on Mathematics (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/mathematics) are open. The following is the official website: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/mathematics/sections/financial_mathematics Research articles, reviews, communications and concept papers will be considered. The deadline is December 2020, but it will be postponed in the future. Since Mathematics is an open access journal, there is a fee (1200 CHF) to be paid at acceptance. Short description of the Special Issue: stochastic optimization finds numerous and various applications in economics, finance and insurance. Among these, we may cite optimal portfolio selection, optimal reinsurance and investment problems, utility maximization and application to valuation of financial and insurance derivatives, optimal management of pension fund and public debt, risk measures. This Special Issue aims at collecting original research papers or comprehensive reviews on the theory and applications of dynamic stochastic optimization in economics, finance and insurance. Advanced mathematical tools have been employed to handle with these problems including viscosity solutions approach, martingale methods, backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs), partial differential equations (PDEs), convex duality, filtering techniques and various numerical methods. Applications different from stochastic optimization will be possibly considered. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Please apologize for cross-posting.

by Fabrizio Leisen 09 Sep '20

09 Sep '20

------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Assistant Professor in Data Science/Statistics** School of Mathematical Sciences, The University of Nottingham Closing Date: Wednesday, 7th October 2020 Job Type: Research & Teaching - permanent post available from 04 Jan 2021. Salary: £36914 to £49553 per annum (pro-rata if applicable) depending on skills and experience. Salary progression beyond this scale is subject to performance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ We are looking for an Assistant Professor to deliver outstanding teaching and research in Data Science or Statistics. This post, jointly funded for the first four years by Horizon (horizon.ac.uk) and the School of Mathematical Sciences (http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/mathematics/index.aspx), provides a pathway to a permanent academic position for an early-career researcher. The role-holder will initially focus on research within Horizon (horizon.ac.uk), with minimal teaching, then transition by the fourth year to working evenly between research within Horizon and teaching in Mathematical Sciences. After four years, the role-holder will become a permanent member of staff within the School of Mathematical Sciences, complementing and enhancing activity in the Statistics and Probability Section. We are particularly seeking candidates with expertise in computational statistics, especially Bayesian methodology and applications, and machine learning, though we welcome applications from any candidates who can show how their expertise fits with the Horizon, the Statistics and Probability Section, and/or other research groups within the School of Mathematical Sciences. Importantly, candidates must be keen to bring their skills and experience into the interdisciplinary team within Horizon addressing the overall socio-technical challenges of the future Digital Economy. Applicants should hold (or shortly expect to receive) a PhD or equivalent in Statistics, Data Science or related area. We believe that talented and inclusive teams deliver the highest quality research and are seeking applications from excellent candidates who enhance the diversity of our existing team. The School is committed to creating opportunities for people traditionally under-represented in Mathematical Sciences. You will have a proven track record, or demonstrated potential, in publishing research of international quality in Statistics, Data Science or related area, and be able to evidence how you will: - Develop research proposals to attract funding from Research Councils, Industry, EU, and other sources - Contribute to disseminating research outputs at national/international conferences, workshops, and meetings - Plan and deliver high quality teaching on Statistics modules - Provide curriculum development within your own area of expertise and collaborate with colleagues to design modules and/or programmes - Demonstrate excellent communication, organisation, interpersonal and time management skills Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Theodore Kypraios (Head of Statistics and Probability Section) by email at theodore.kypraios(a)nottingham.ac.uk. Please note that applications sent directly to this email address will not be accepted.

The David G Kendall Award <https://mailings.isi-web.org/?nltr=NDU7NDg3ODtodHRwczovL3Jzcy5vcmcudWsvdHJh…> is for early career researchers working in probability or mathematical statistics within eight years of getting their PhD (but could be extended for those having had a career break). It will be presented every other year, with the first in 2021. The €2,000 award should be used to cover the expenses of attendance at a BS or an RSS conference (typically the Bernoulli-IMS World Congress, the ISI World Statistics Congress or the RSS Annual Conference), where the recipient will receive their award and give a lecture. More about the nomination process is on the Bernoulli Society page <https://mailings.isi-web.org/?nltr=NDU7NDg3ODtodHRwOi8vd3d3LmJlcm5vdWxsaS1z…> . RSS President Deborah Ashby says: 'It is very exciting to be able to honour David Kendall’s memory by celebrating the work of young researchers. I hope that with this award, we can highlight some of the excellent research that’s currently taking place in mathematical statistics and probability.' Bernoulli Society President Claudia Klüppelberg adds: 'The Bernoulli Society (BS) is very proud to announce this joint BS and RSS Award in honour of David G Kendall. As their first president, BS would perhaps not exist without him, and now in his name a new and fruitful collaboration with RSS is initiated.’ Finally, David's son Wilfrid, says: 'DGK always put a high priority on encouraging career-young researchers, and urging them to make every effort to attend and speak at international conferences. And he was enormously proud of his RSS and Bernoulli affiliations. Consequently, I and the rest of the Kendall family are absolutely delighted that the RSS and Bernoulli Society are honouring his memory in this way.’ The award is based on donations – those who wish to donate can do so via the award page of RSS <https://mailings.isi-web.org/?nltr=NDU7NDg3ODtodHRwczovL3Jzcy5vcmcudWsvdHJh…>or the ISI <https://mailings.isi-web.org/?nltr=NDU7NDg3ODtodHRwczovL3d3dy5pc2ktd2ViLm9y…> page.
