ORIE 6620
Mathematics of Financial Systems

Course information provided by the 2014-2015 Catalog.

This course covers the rigorous mathematical foundations for the analysis of financial systems. We briefly study models of financial markets based on stochastic processes (risk is exogenous) and he mathematics of arbitrage in discrete time. We introduce a wide range of tools that would serve us to model how markets generate and further transmit risk (risk is endogenous). Topics include contagion in financial networks, random graphs, optimal control of diffusions on random networks.


Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: one semester calculus based probability course.

When Offered Spring.
