QFinLab Seminar - Neofytos Rodosthenous (University College London) - 21/4/2026, 15:30 @ Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano

Dear colleagues, you are all invited to participate in the following seminar organized by QFinLab - Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano. Tuesday, 21 April 2026, 15.30-16.30 Seminar room, third floor, building 14, Via Bonardi 9, Milano<https://www.google.com/maps/search/Via+Bonardi+9,+Milano?entry=gmail&source…> (Leonardo Campus); online (Microsoft Teams), Link<https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/37636229162148?p=ARUIgsqktVw4OOzc64> <https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NjU3ODM1MzMtZWMwOS00…> Neofytos Rodosthenous (University College London) Title: Regulation in a mean-field investment game with climate damage. Abstract: We develop a mean-field model of firms investing in carbon-intensive (brown) capital, where productivity declines due to temperature-related climate damages linked to cumulative emissions. Firms aim to maximise expected discounted profits under stochastic capital dynamics driven by idiosyncratic shocks, facing a trade-off between investment-driven growth and increased emissions. We characterise the unique mean-field equilibrium as the solution to a coupled system of forward-backward ordinary differential equations. This framework also enables the analysis of optimal regulatory instruments — such as carbon emission taxes and brown production phase-out timelines — in line with long-term climate goals. All news can be found on the QFinLab webpage<https://www.qfinlab.polimi.it/seminars-and-meetings/>. The organizers: Michele Azzone and Alessandro Calvia.
