Dorje Brody is visiting Imperial College London tomorrow (Tuesday 28th September). He will be giving an invited seminar in the “Finance and Stochastic Seminar Series“. The title of his talk is “From mathematical finance to mathematical politics“. Generative models for market filtration offer a highly effective way of obtaining realistic asset price dynamics to enhance risk management in financial markets. Such a construction goes beyond the immediate realm of financial modelling. In this talk he will outline how a similar technique can be applied to model dynamics of electoral competitions and other democratic processes. Full abstract at the above link.
