Prof. Carlo Sgarra 

Period of visit: March 23-29, 2020 - Cancelled (measures against pandemia)

Carlo Sgarra is Associate Professor of Mathematical Finance at  Politecnico (Milano, Italy). The main subjects of his present research in mathematical finance are exotic option pricing, valuation problems in incomplete market models, in particular stochastic volatility models, models with jumps and models with transaction cost. The mathematical methods applied  are essentially related to partial differential equations and stochastic calculus. His recent projects are mainly focused on energy market models and pricing and hedging of energy commodity derivatives: parameter estimation techniques and risk premium valuation for different model classes.

During his visit he will give a talk. See here.

Prof. Christa Cuchiero

Visit on November 18, 2019

Christa Cuchiero is professor at Vienna University of Economics and Business, Institute of Statistics and Mathematics. She has broad interest within probability, stochastic analysis and mathematical finance. Her research activity has touched fundamental questions within affine and polynomial processes on different state spaces in finite and infinite dimensions, Volterra processes, measure valued processes, McKean-Vlasov SDEs, interacting particle systems, mean field games. She is dealing both with the most theoretical aspect, but also effective applications. Her methods include functional analytic approach, statistics of stochastic processes, statistics with high-frequency data, covariance estimation, robust model calibration. The most recent applications of her work are in rough volatility modelling.
