Due to the Covid-19 epidemics, this research school could not take place in residence at CIRM as originally intended.
KEY WORDS
Risk Modeling, Computational Finance, Simulation Techniques
DESCRIPTION
The focus lies on applications in numerical integration, risk modelling, computational finance, simulation techniques, and computational geometry.

Speakers will introduce basic terminology and methods and then discuss fundamental applications.

The research school is open to advanced master students in mathematics, statistics, and computer science as well as to PhD students.
