[VFN] Mathematical Finance in Dubrovnik (2nd ann., fwd)
by VFN-L admin * Andreas Schamanek 28 Apr '01

28 Apr '01

----------- forwarded messages: Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2001 23:04:36 +0200 (MET DST) From: Summer School in Mathematical Finance <ssmf(a)valjhun.fmf.uni-lj.si> Subject: Mathematical Finance in Dubrovnik SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT SUMMER SCHOOL IN MATHEMATICAL FINANCE Inter-University Centre Dubrovnik Dubrovnik, Croatia, September 17-22, 2001 The aim of the summer school is to have leading researchers deliver lectures on current research in mathematical finance. There will be five invited speakers who will each give 6 expository lectures on topics concerning mainly pric- ing of derivative securities but will include also term structure models and actuarial science. There will also be a limited number of contributed talks. English will be the official language of the summer school. PROGRAMME As mentioned before there will be five lecturers each delivering six hours of lectures. The idea is to bring the audience up to date with current research but not to clutter the presentation with too much technical detail. Some fami- liarity with probability and finance is expected. Note that the programme has changed slightly from the first announce- ment. The five confirmed lecturers are: Tomas Bjoerk (The Stockholm School of Economics): INTEREST RATE MODELS. Mark Davis (Imperial College): MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR DEFAULT AND CREDIT RISK. Nicole El Karoui (Ecole Polytechnique, Paris): INVERSE PROB- LEMS IN FINANCE Paul Embrechts (Swiss Institute of Technology): INSURANCE ANALYTICS. Ragnar Norberg (London School of Economics): FINANCIAL MATHEMATICS IN LIFE AND PENSION INSURANCE. ORGANISERS The organising institution is the Inter-University Centre in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The IUC is an international organisa- tion whose members are universities all over the world. At the moment the number of participating universities is 175 and the list is expected to grow in the future. The main aim of the Centre is to provide the location and facilities for meetings, summer schools and conferences in all fields of science. The organising committee consists of J. Cvitanic (University of Southern California), D. Mramor (Univeristy of Lju- bljana), W. Runggaldier (University of Padova) and W. Schachermayer (Technical University Vienna). The local organisers are M. Perman (University of Ljubljana) and Z. Vondraèek (University of Zagreb). REGISTRATION The registration fee will be 120 EURO for regular partici- pants and 80 EURO for registered students. The number of participants is limited to 60. Registration will be handled on a first come first served basis. You can register on- line at http://www.math.hr/~ssmf or by sending e-mail to to ssmf(a)valjhun.fmf.uni-lj.si. You will only be considered registered once the registration fee has been paid. The deadline for registration is June 15, 2001. Keep in mind that the number of participants is limited and the number of registrations is increasing fast. ACT now. ACCOMMODATION AND TRAVEL The best way to get to Dubrovnik is to fly. The local air- port Æilipi is a short drive from the city. There are regu- lar flights from Zagreb, Croatia. For more information on travel and hotels consult the conference homepage. We URGE you to book hotels as soon as possible. Dubrovnik is a popular destination and hotels may be a problem if you do last minute reservations. See the homepage for information on hotels. ABOUT DUBROVNIK Dubrovnik is located on the eastern coast of the Adriatic sea close to the southernmost tip of Croatia. It is best known for its impressive ramparts encircling the picturesque renaissance inner city, and for its rich and colourful his- tory. The origins of the city go back to the Romans who appreciated the suave Mediterranean climate and the beauti- ful surroundings. The life of the inhabitants has always been closely tied to the sea; the trading network of the Ragusan traders extended across Europe and they were known as reliable partners and were renowned for their shipbuild- ing skills. At the height of its power in the 15. and 16. century the tiny city-republic of Dubrovnik had over 150 consular representatives countries and was actively involved in European politics. The ensuing centuries brought a slow decline as the Mediterranean lost its role as the primary trading route. As a historical curiosity one should mention that Dubrovnik was the first state to recognise the indepen- dence of the United States in 1776. Today tourism is the main activity in Dubrovnik. It's surroundings and bathing possibilities along with cultural events have been attract- ing visitors for many years. In September the weather is usually sunny and the temperatures range between 25-30C (78-86F). The water temperatures are balmy 24C (76F). April 26, 2001

In diesem Sommersemester wird wieder das "traditionelle" Seminar Finanzmathematik angeboten: Als Ergaenzung zum Thema Risikomanagement wollen wir diesmal auch Vortraege ueber mathematische Ansaetze im Handel (technische Analyse, Zeitreihenanalyse, neuronale Netze) bringen. Das Seminar startet am 14. Maerz, wie immer mit einer Einfuehrung, die sich primaer an die Studenten des Mathematischen Institutes richtet (aber auch an interessierte Praktiker). Nach den Osterferien sind dann wieder Vortraege von Wissenschaftlern und Praktikern geplant, zu denen wir gesondert einladen werden. Zeit und Ort unseres Seminars: Zeit: Mittwoch, 19 Uhr bis 20 Uhr 30 Ort: Hoersaal 1 Institut fuer Mathematik Strudlhofgasse 4 1090 Wien Weitere Informationen dazu unter http://www.mat.univie.ac.at/~mfulmek/sess01.html Mit besten Gruessen, Markus Fulmek ------------------------------------------------- Wissenschaftlicher Verein Modernes Risk Management WWW: http://keen.esi.ac.at/~amrm/ Institut fuer Mathematik Universitaet Wien Strudlhofgasse 4 A-1090 Wien Kontakt: Dr.Markus Fulmek amrm(a)keen.esi.ac.at

This series of events aims at bringing together economists to explore current development of evolutionary computation (EC) in economic and financial modeling, simulation and computation. These special sessions, along with many similar events have revealed some promising features of EC in the study of option pricing, time series modeling, economic forecasting, trading strategies, oligopoly games, bargaining behavior, economic experiments, and artificial financial markets. Through these applications, EC tools such as genetic algorithms, genetic programming, evolutionary programming, evolutionary strategies and evolutionary artificial neural nets have been introduced to a larger circle of economists, and also provides us with a better opportunity to reflect upon the chances which we may have from these tools. As a continuation of this learning process, this year we will organize special sessions on the 7th SCE conference at Yale University. Papers addressing novel applications of EC techniques to economics, game theory and finance, and methodologies are cordially solicited. Authors wishing to present a paper should submit a 4-page extended abstract or a full paper via the conference webpage, http://gemini.econ.yale.edu/conference/SCE2001 The conference Web site will begin accepting submissions on January 1, 2001, and will continue to accept submissions through March 1, 2001. To expedite the screening process, a menu is provided on the webpages allowing precategorization of submissions. Authors are advised to indicate the program committee member by whom the submission is to be considered. For example, to have a paper included in the sessions on ``Evolutionary Computation in Economics and Finance'', one should choose Berc Rustem as the conference program committee member by whom the submission is to be considered. For any further information, please contact Berc Rustem Department of Computing Imperial College of Science, Technology & Medicine 180 Queen's Gate, London SW7 2BZ, UK Tel: 44 (0)20 7594 8345 Fax: 44 (0)20 7581 8024 E-mail: br(a)doc.ic.ac.uk or Shu-Heng Chen AI-ECON Research Center Department of Economics National Chengchi University Taipei, Taiwan 11623 Tel: 886-2-29387308 Fax: 886-2-27386874 E-mail: chchen(a)nccu.edu.tw http://www.aiecon.org/
