Dear all,
you're invited to the next seminar in Probability and Finance, that will
take place next Tuesday, at 2.30 pm, in hybrid mode at the Math Dept of the
University of Padova.
More details:
* *Speaker*: *Elisa Alos (UPF Barcelona)*
* *Date and time*: 5th July 2022, 2.30pm
* *Room (Torre Archimede)*: 2BC30
* *Zoom link*: please find it here

* *Title*: *Stochastic volatility models: A Malliavin calculus approach*
* *Abstract*: In this talk, we review some properties of stochastic
volatility models via Malliavin calculus. We discuss the skew and curvature
of the implied volatility for both vanilla and forward start options, for
different kinds of models as stochastic, local, and rough volatility
models. We also discuss the properties of the implied volatility of
volatility derivatives as options on the VIX. In particular, we see for
which models the VIX skew is positive.
Best,
Giorgia Callegaro

Title: Manoeuvring and Investing in Yield Farms
Abstract: This paper is about Yield Farming which denotes a DeFi strategy
of seeking rewards in the form of transaction fees by depositing tokens
into a decentralized application. We demystify the investment process and
quantify transaction costs, returns, and risks using historical data from a
major DEX. We reveal the economic mechanisms providing a mathematical
(optimization) framework which resembles the yield farming investment
process including the direct modeling of returns, transaction costs, and
sources of risk.
