Seminario Simone Scotti a Padova
by Giorgia Callegaro 23 Jun '16

23 Jun '16

Buongiorno a tutti, annuncio con piacere che il giorno *1° luglio 2016 alle ore 15 *Simone Scotti (Université Paris VII) terrà, presso l'aula 2BC30 del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Padova (Via Trieste 63, Padova) un seminario dal titolo: "Branching processes with applications to finance" Abstract: We introduce a class of interest rate models, called the \alpha-CIR model, which gives a natural extension of the standard CIR model by adopting the \alpha-stable Lévy process and preserving the branching property. This model allows to describe in a unified and parsimonious way several recent observations on the sovereign bond market such as the persistency of low interest rate together with the presence of large jumps at local extent. We emphasize on a general integral representation of the model by using random fields, with which we establish the link to the CBI processes and the affine models. Finally we analyze the jump behaviors and in particular the large jumps, and we provide numerical illustrations. A presto e grazie per l'attenzione, Giorgia Callegaro -- Giorgia Callegaro Assistant Professor Department of Mathematics - University of Padova Via Trieste 63 , I-35121 Padova - ITALY Tel: +39-0498271481 Fax: +39-0498271499 E-Mail: gcallega(a)math.unipd.it <https://webmail.math.unipd.it/horde3/imp/message.php?mailbox=Sent&index=598#> Personal web-page: https://sites.google.com/site/giogiocallegaro/Home

by Tiziano Vargiolu 18 Jun '16

18 Jun '16

Please circulate among whoever is interested. ------------------------- Research grant on the topic "Capacity markets and the definition of the value of Reliability Options" to be performed at the Department of Mathematics under the supervision of Prof. Tiziano Vargiolu (as the scientific responsible). - duration: 24 month; - topic: In energy markets, it is of particular interest the problem of a fair evaluation of Reliability Options (RO), namely, physical call options derived on electricity, issued by generators and acquired by a subject to hedge adequacy risk of power generation. The aim of this grant is to define a fair pricing of RO, which requires techniques which go beyond those classically used in financial markets to price and hedge derivative assets. - call for grant: http://www.math.unipd.it/it/news/?id=1875 The English version is at the bottom (3 downloadable files) (please keep in mind that, in case of disputes, the announcement in ITALIAN is the official one). - deadline: July 11, 2016.

seminario 22 giugno 2016 - Bicocca
by Emanuela Rosazza 16 Jun '16

16 Jun '16

Si avvisa che il giorno mercoledì 22 giugno 2016 alle ore 15.30 presso l’Università di Milano- Bicocca (via degli Arcimboldi 8 - edificio U7, secondo piano- aula Demografica – stanza 2062) si terrà il seguente seminario: Speaker: Dott. Patrick Beissner (Australian National University, Canberra, Australia) Titolo: “Knight-Walras Equilibria” Abstract: Knightian uncertainty leads naturally to nonlinear expectations. We introduce a corresponding equilibrium concept with sublinear prices and establish their existence. In general, such equilibria lead to Pareto inefficiency and coincide with Arrow--Debreu equilibria only if the values of net trades are ambiguity--free in the mean. Without aggregate uncertainty, inefficiencies arise generically. We introduce a constrained efficiency concept, uncertainty--neutral efficiency and show that Knight--Walras equilibrium allocations are efficient in this constrained sense. Arrow--Debreu equilibria turn out to be non--robust with respect to the introduction of Knightian uncertainty. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Un saluto e a presto, Emanuela ******************************************************************************************* Emanuela Rosazza Gianin Dipartimento di Statistica e Metodi Quantitativi Università di Milano-Bicocca Edificio U7 – 4° Piano Via Bicocca degli Arcimboldi, 8 20126 Milano Tel. 02 64483208 Fax. 02 64483105 e-mail: emanuela.rosazza1(a)unimib.it *******************************************************************************************
