ECSO 2020 is the 3rd edition of a stream of conferences organized by the EURO Working Group on Stochastic Optimization (EWGSO). The previous editions were held in Paris (2014) and Rome (2017). The scope of the conference is to bring together researchers and professionals in Stochastic Optimization and its applications in different fields spacing from economics and finance to supply chain, logistics, etc. CMS 2020 is the 17th edition of an annual meeting associated with the journal of Computational Management Science published by Springer. The aim of the conference is to provide a forum for theoreticians and practitioners from academia and industry to exchange knowledge, ideas and results in a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of computational methods in management science. This joint event will provide a forum for fruitful discussions and interactions among researchers and professionals from industry and institutional sectors on decision making under uncertainty in a complex world. The conference will be within the scopes of both CMS and EWGSO and, in particular, it will focus on models, methods and computational tools in stochastic, robust and distributionally robust optimization and on computational aspects of management science with emphasis on risk management, valuation problems, measurement applications. Traditional fields of application, such as finance, energy, water management, logistics, supply chain management, and emerging ones, such as healthcare, climate risk and sustainable development, will be included. A Best Student Paper Prize of 600 euro will be awarded. Papers should be nominated via e-mail by the students’ supervisors (ecsocms2020(a)unive.it). Deadline for the submissions to the prize is May 15. The program will include a devoted session for presenting the best papers to compete for the prize, such that the jury could make the final choice. The paper does not have to be published. The papers should be principally authored by the student, but co-authors are permitted as long as their contributions are clarified. Only registered participants’ papers will be considered for the prize.

Polimi Finance Seminars Paolo Di Tella (TU-Dresden)
by Carlo Sgarra 27 Jan '20

27 Jan '20

On Tuesday, February 11, at 10:30 in the Seminar Room at the third floor of the Department of Mathematics (Politecnico di Milano), in the framework of the quantitative finance seminars, Paolo Di Tella (TU-Dresden) will give a talk with title: * Semistatic and sparse variance-optimal hedging. ABSTRACT We consider the problem of hedging a contingent claim with a “semistatic” strategy composed of a dynamic position in one asset and static (buy‐and‐hold) positions in other assets. We give general representations of the optimal strategy and the hedging error under the criterion of variance optimality and provide tractable formulas using Fourier integration in case of the Heston model. We also consider the problem of optimally selecting a sparse semistatic hedging strategy, i.e., a strategy that only uses a small subset of available hedging assets and discuss parallels to the variable‐selection problem in linear regression. The methods developed are illustrated in an extended numerical example where we compute a sparse semistatic hedge for a variance swap using European options as static hedging assets. (joint work with M. Haubold, M. Keller-Ressel). All people interested are kindly invited to attend the talk. Carlo Sgarra

Probability Seminar: Alessandra Cipriani (TU Delft) [Padova 31/01, 11.30]
by alessandra bianchi 21 Jan '20

21 Jan '20

Dear Colleagues, we would like to invite you to the following Probability seminar that will take place at the Department of Mathematics of Padova, on January 31. ________________________________________________________ Speaker: Alessandra Cipriani (TU Delft) Title: Dynamical fitness models: evidence of universality classes for preferential attachment 31 JANUARY (Friday), 11:30; ROOM 1BC45, Dipartimento di Matematica “Tullio Levi-Civita”, Via Trieste 63, Padova Abstract: In this talk we study different variations of a particular class of random graphs called preferential attachment models with fitness. These are dynamic graphs in which, at every time step, a new node attaches itself to an older one with probability proportional to the degree and a random factor associated to the node, called the fitness. Motivated by learning mechanisms of real-life networks, we assume the fitness to be a Moving Average process MA(q) with positive increments. We study different properties of such models, for example the degree distribution, the attachment probability and the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation. Finally we provide evidence that, tuning the parameters of the fitness process, we fall into two universality classes represented by the well-known Albert-Barabàsi model and Bianconi-Barabàsi model. This implies the robustness of heavy tails in the degree distribution under random perturbations of the attachment rule. All of you are very welcome.
