"An Inverse Problem in Mathematical Finance"
Abstract: Introduced by Bruno Dupire, Derman and Kani in the nineties,
the local volatility model generalizes the classical Black-Scholes
model, replacing the constant volatility by a deterministic function of
the price and the time. We review some results concerning the
associated calibration problem and propose some extensions and
applications.

To Whom it May Concern:
Due to an overlap of the Vienna Seminar in Mathematical Finance and
Probability with the IST Lecture with the speaker Cédric Villani, the
Vienna Seminar MFP will take place on Wednesday instead of Thursday.
Furthermore we announce two PhD theses defenses at University of Vienna.
Please find details below.
Best regards,
Sandra
