Advanced Course on Mathematical Finance: Further models

Objective

The Mathematical Finance is a rapidly increasing and diversifying field. The core of this theory needs some of the newest mathematical methods, as stochastic calculus, stochastic processes estimation and numerical integration of partial differential equations, and newest point of view of financial economics, as capital asset pricing models and arbitrage pricing theory. These rapidly growing area go now through an especially exciting phase, and are associated to many of the recent most remarkable developments in pure and applied mathematics.
The intend of the course is to develop some of these directions, concentrating, in particular, in interest rate models, heavy tails distributions and stochastic volatility models. Moreover we will put together young researchers and young practitioners working in financial institution with good background in applied methods. Our organization develops a Master degree in Mathematical finance that provides relationship with these institutions. It is also and objective in itself to bring together and make interact students with different background.
The aim of the course is to provide young researchers with the necessary tools to tackle open problems in the subject area that rise from applied point of view. Giving them the opportunity to learn from leader experts the most recent results on interest rate models, heavy tails distributions and stochastic volatility models. This will enhance also the career prospects of young researchers and will contribute to strengthen Europe's competitive leadership on this area.
