Research Work Shop
COURSE WEEK
PROJECT WEEK

FINANCIAL ENGINEERING
THE MATHEMATICS OF RISK MANAGEMENT

4 - 15 August 2008
Bandung

Organised jointly by
Laboratorium Matematika Indonesia (LabMath-Indonesia)
and
Universitas Katolik Parahyangan

in collaboration with
. Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands . University of
Twente, the Netherlands

AIM AND DESCRIPTION
The aim of the two-week Research Work Shop (RWS) is to provide some
background of methods and ideas in Financial Engineering. For the best
performing participants, this may be the start of continued research,
guided by one of the lecturers of the RWS.

This course aims to provide a thorough mathematical introduction to
the modeling of financial derivatives. We start with dynamic models in
discrete time for asset prices and derive the mathematical conditions
that have to be used in such models to make them realistic
representations of markets. Using binomial models, and the powerful
concept of markets that are arbitrage-free, i.e. markets in which it
is impossible to make riskless profits, we will be able to prove
important results concerning the structure of such markets.

We then look at models in continuous time, and we will quickly realize
that a realistic model for stock prices should lead to paths which are
almost everywhere continuous but almost nowhere differentiable. The
analysis of processes with this property is made possible through the
use of Ito Calculus, which will be introduced in the course. It turns
out that the structural properties that can be derived for the
discrete time models mentioned earlier generalize to an astonishing
extent in continuous time.
This results in the powerful theory of risk neutral pricing, which is
the cornerstone of modern mathematical finance.

To be able to use all these concepts, the last part of the course will
also discuss in detail how option pricing models can be implemented in
practice.
The main aim of option pricing models is not to make riskless profits,
or use advanced statistical techniques to profit from speculation. The
aim of option markets is to provide a service which allows other
parties to reduce their financial risk, in a way that is comparable to
taking out insurance against possible misfortune. Option pricing
theory therefore deals with more than establishing consistent pricing
models. It is also essential to derive trading strategies which
minimize the risk for the option trader. This leads to deep questions
concerning the existence and uniqueness of certain stochastic integral
representations for random variables, and financial engineering
applications have thus lead to a lot of new mathematical research into
such questions.

For some models there are explicit solutions which can be implemented
using techniques varying from partial differential equations (such as
the Black-Scholes equation) to Monte Carlo simulations under
transformed probability measures. Efficient numerical implementation
of these methods, and formal proofs of their convergence, form an
essential part of mathematical finance and will therefore be discussed
on an introductory level in this course too.

Mathematics is often extra exciting when quantitative problems in the
real world require not only application of existing mathematical
techniques, but the extension of these techniques due to new
conditions or model assumptions which are essential for a realistic
model. In this course we hope to show you how fruitful the interplay
between the theory of stochastic processes and the practice of option
trading has been, and to make you enthusiastic for one of the most
successful applications of probability theory and functional analysis
in modern times.
Please consult the webpage
www.math.utwente.nl/~vellekoopmh/FEcursusLabmath/
for additional information and preparatory material.

PROJECTS
Project 1 : PRICING AND HEDGING OF ASIAN OPTIONS.
We consider the pricing and hedging problem for an 'Asian option', an
option with a payoff that depends on the average of certain asset
price values, instead of a fixed end value. The numerical computations
for this kind of options are known to be challenging, but many
different and interesting ways to attack the problem have been
proposed in the literature. We will focus in particularly on the
question what the speed of convergence of these different methods will be.

Project 2 : INDONESIAN OPTIONS.
In September 2006, the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) introduced the
trading of options on stocks of five companies: Telekomunikasi
Indonesia Tbk (TLKM), Astra International Tbk (ASII), HM Sampoerna Tbk
(HMSP), Bank Central Asia Tbk (BBCA) and Indofood Sukses Makmur Tbk
(INDF). The regulations for trading in these options contain, among
others, descriptions of put and call option contracts with the stock
of one of the above-mentioned companies as underlying. Since these
contracts are rather special, we will refer to them as Indonesian put
or call option. In this project we try to find the precise regulations
for Indonesian options from information that is officially published
by the Jakarta Stock Exchange and use this to try to price and hedge
such options.

Project 3 : ATM FORWARD PERCENTAGE CALL SPREADS.
The ATM Forward Percentage Call Spread is a special type of call
option contract in which there is only a pay-off if the price of the
underlying asset at a future maturity time is higher than the price at
the initial time. In this case the pay-off is 1 euro for every percent
of increase of price between those times up to a certain maximum. As
such, an ATM Forward Percentage Call Spread is more like a trading
strategy. They are not traded on the market, but they are an example
of a so-called structured product. In this project we will calculate a
price and a replication strategy for an ATM Forward Percentage Call
Spread. Using historical and boot-strapped data, we try to get some
insight into the risk of the replication strategy.

Project 4 : BASKET OPTIONS.
Basket options are options whose payoff depends on the value of a
basket, i.e. a portfolio of assets. We will consider baskets of
futures or forward contracts on different (but related) commodities
that mature at the same time. Such basket options are very common in
commodity markets. We assume that under the risk neutral measure the
prices of the futures follow correlated Geometric Brownian Motions. In
recent work, the probability distribution of the price of the basket
was approximated by a generalized family of lognormal distributions.
We start this project with a study of futures traded at Indonesian
markets, and continue with a study of the distribution of sums of
correlated lognormal distributions to test the approximation that have
been proposed.

PROGRAMME LAY-OUT
The first week is a Course week, with lectures and exercise classes.
This Course week can be attended by maximal 30 participants. At the
end of this week, the projects will be introduced and Project groups
will be formed. At most 20 participants can continue with these
projects, when necessary selected based on their performance during
the Course week. This project work will be executed during the whole
second week with close guidance by the RWS lecturers. Participants
will prepare written and oral presentations of their work.
Arrangements for further activities will be made if applicable.


AWARD/CONTINUATION
For at most five of the best performing participants, a continued
activity will be designed. Such a continuation may consist of further
study and own research investigations in a specific topic. Working on
the topic may include a period of several months as guest of
LabMath-Indonesia in Bandung.
During these periods, and as much as possible also during other
periods using email for correspondence, tutorial guidance will be
provided by one of the lecturers of the RWS. When achievements are
good, sooner or later the results will lead to an application for a
research grant, to an international publication, and/or to a visit or
following a study programme at a university abroad, whatever is
possible and desired. The best performing participants will be invited
and guided to write a research proposal to be submitted to (inter-)
national funding agencies.

LECTURERS
Dr. Ferry Jaya Permana, Universitas Katolik Parahyangan, Indonesia Dr.
Hans van der Weide, University of Delft, the Netherlands Dr. Michel
Vellekoop, University of Twente, the Netherlands

PARTICIPATION
Students and staff from governmental or private universities and
organisations, and employees of companies and Banks can apply for
participation. Especially young S1 students in their final year and
S2 students are strongly encouraged to participate.
To profit from the course, participants should be eager to learn new
topics, both the theoretical background as well as the specific
applications. In general, basic knowledge concerning probability
theory is required. Students with a math, physics, engineering or
econometric background will be able to enjoy the lectures and
projects. Programming skills (Matlab, Maple), will be needed in the
execution of some projects. The applications will be thoroughly
examined, and at most 30 participants will be allowed to participate
in the first Course Week and 20 participants in the Project week.

PhD Studentship

The mindsets of effective programme office managers: A phenomenographic study

International Centre for Programme Management

Cranfield School of Management - one of Europe's top management schools - is offering this PhD studentship within its International Centre for Programme Management, a world-leading hub for research into this important emerging discipline. The studentship is tenable for four years from October 2008.

In business and government, programmes are used to transform strategies and policies into desired outcomes and benefits. The 'programme office' is the information hub for the programme, performing on behalf of the programme leadership team a variety of functions associated with programme support. Some programme offices have wider responsibilities for the maintenance of corporate standards and processes.

There is a growing recognition that the role of programme office manager requires an individual with a certain mindset, but little is known about the conceptual attributes that make up that mindset. Phenomenography is an established research approach for identifying and mapping the qualitatively different ways in which people conceive a given aspect of reality, in this case the work of a programme office manager. The approach leads to the identification of the key attributes of conception at a number of levels (usually three of four) that distinguish and explain why some individuals are more effective than others.

Applications are invited from exceptionally qualified candidates for this fully funded full-time studentship under the supervision of Dr David Partington. Applicants should have a good first degree in a relevant discipline. Experience of working on projects and programmes is desirable, although not essential. An MBA or relevant specialist masters degree would be an advantage.

The studentship includes full payment of fees at the UK or overseas rate and stipend of £12,940 per annum.

For an informal discussion about the project, please contact Dr David Partington, tel +44 (0)1234 751122, email d.partington@cranfield.ac.uk, Website http://www.som.cranfield.ac.uk/som/research/centres/icpm/

The closing date for applications is 31 July 2008. Full details of the application process, the PhD programme and other PhD projects are available on the School's website at www.cranfield.ac.uk/som/phd or from the PhD Programme Manager, Wendy Habgood, on tel +44 (0)1234 754373, email wendy.habgood@cranfield.ac.uk.

PhD Studentship: Dorothy Hodgkin Postgraduate Award

Modelling Rupture of CO2 Pipelines

Department of Chemical Engineering

Reducing carbon dioxide emissions is considered to be the most effective
way of tackling the effects of global warming. This will require the
large-scale capture, transportation and storage of CO2. In the case of
coal fired power generation plants, pressurised pipelines are considered
to be the most practical, and possibly the only option for transporting
the captured CO2 for subsequent storage.

Given the enormous amounts of CO2 contained in such pipelines (typically
several million tonnes), a prior knowledge of the release rate and
subsequent dispersion in the event of pipeline rupture is central to
assessing the failure impact. CO2 is toxic and when inhaled in large
concentrations can lead to asphyxiation.

This exciting PhD project aims to extend our award winning work
(http://www.ucl.ac.uk/chemeng/staff/mahgerefteh) to develop a computer
based model for predicting the failure consequences of CO2 pipelines.
The project carried out in close collaboration with a major industrial
partner is multidisciplinary involving a variety of subjects including,
fluid mechanics, mathematics, heat transfer, quantitative risk
assessment and computing. The experience gained is expected to equip the
prospective PhD graduate with job opportunities in a variety of
industrial sectors particularly in the oil and gas industry.

The successful candidate will be an outstanding First Class Chemical
Engineering or Mathematics graduate (although other relevant disciplines
will be considered) preferably with computing skills. The funding covers
full tuition fees plus maintenance over three years and is open to
suitably qualified overseas students.

UCL is consistently classed amongst the top Universities in the world.
The UCL Chemical Engineering department in particular received the
highest research rating in the most recent Government funded Research
Assessment Exercise placing it amongst the only three such departments
in the UK.

C.V's should be sent either by post or email as soon as possible to:

Farah P.

PhD-researcher on the project Successful implementation of innovations in organizations (1,0 fte)
(Utrecht), 38 hours per week Utrecht University, Faculty of Social Sciences



Job description
________________________________

PhD-researcher on the project Successful implementation of innovations (1,0 fte)
In the context of the High-Potential programme
the Faculty of Social Sciences has one PhD position available for the
project ‘Successful implementation of innovations in organizations’.
The High Potentials project is financed by Utrecht University to
support interdisciplinary work of talented scientists. The PhD will
work in an interdisciplinary group of sociologists and work and
organizational psychologists.
As a member of the local Linschoten Institute for psychological
research, the PhD for the project will be related to the National
Research Institute of Psychology and Health.

Job description:
How do employees adapt to innovations

The central question of this project is: When can we expect that
employees function optimal (perform well) and remain healthy within
changing organizations and working environments. The project studies
the process of adaptation of innovations by employees. It is driven by
the view that employees are not the passive recipients of innovations,
rather they purposefully and creatively craft the innovations (e.g. by
complaining about innovations or learning). The critical question is
what are the individual characteristics (both with respect to
relatively stable-traits and dynamic–behaviours) that facilitate
adaptation of innovation within a given work context? Using
transferable insights from social psychology and occupational health
psychology, the project will focus on the interplay between job demands
and resources as well as individual demands and resources that
influence employees’ responses to innovations. The individual ability
to adopt particular innovations in certain circumstances will depend on
the extent to which (a) changes in the work environment prompted by the
innovation fit with
(b) individual characteristics as well as
(c) the individual ability to self-regulate emotions and actions (towards goal achievement).

Online Application for external PhD students open now!

Welcome to the Earth System Science Research School (ESSRES) Programme!

In July 2007 the Helmholtz Association approved the foundation of a
new Research School on Earth System Science which will officially
start in summer 2008. In a joint initiative of Alfred Wegener
Institute Bremerhaven (AWI), University of Bremen (Uni-HB), and Jacobs
University Bremen new generations of outstanding junior scientists
will be trained and prepared in the interdisciplinary field of Earth
System Sciences toward a doctoral degree.

The existing research infrastructure at the Alfred Wegener Institute
Bremerhaven (AWI), University of Bremen, Institute for Environmental
Physics (Uni-HB/IUP) , and Jacobs University Bremen offers a unique
research environment to study past, present and future changes of the
climate system. The foundation of the Earth System Research School at
the AWI will focus on the integration of observations, palaeoclimate
data, and climate modelling to better understand natural climate
variations over a broad range of timescales and disciplines. The
overall expertise available in observation, modelling, and
reconstruction at the participating institutions provides an extremely
solid base for interdisciplinary research. This excellent working and
scientific environment will provide PhD students with advanced
training and research support. The Research School will offer
world-class educational possibilities thanks to its staff of
internationally- recognised and highly rated expert scientists.

The central idea of linking `data and modelling' enables graduate
students from a variety of disciplines to cooperate and exchange views
on a common theme which leads to a better understanding of local
processes within a global context. Computational and conceptual models
of the Earth system provide the ability to investigate different
scenarios in biogeochemistry, such as the carbon cycle, the structure
of marine sediments, and isotope distribution in climate components.
Training and education, especially in time-series and data analysis,
is a common key component for all participants.

In the ESSRES joint activities between the AWI, Uni-HB, and Jacobs
University bring together a truly unique group of researchers and
provide a great opportunity for young, talented aspiring scientists to
integrate observations of past climate change based on different
archives including ice cores, marine sediments and biological
recorders, with models of the climate system and its components. The
eight groups from AWI complement each other with respect to their
expertise in the field of palaeo-climate studies. AWI has a broad
foundation for studying climate change in marine archives and ice
cores, has expertise in carbon cycle modelling at different scales,
and applies approaches for reconstructing fundamental
palaeo-bathymetric settings. The department of environmental physics
at the Bremen University (Uni-HB/IUP) has excellent expertise in the
physics and chemistry of the atmosphere and remote sensing, with a
focus on the measurement and monitoring of global methane and carbon
cycle changes. Since data, and dealing with data, are key components
of this Research School, Jacobs University's computational modelling
and geoinformation science group will provide algorithms and tools for
temporal and spatial data analyses, data management and advanced
visualization. Together, these twelve topics will define a unique new
approach to the investigation of complex cycles (biogeochemical,
isotopic or cycles of matter) within the Earth system in a common,
highly interdisciplinary, context.

The expertise of the scientists involved guarantees an outstanding
research and educational programme. In a three-year term, a number of
basic and expert scientific courses and soft skill training modules
provide a broad knowledge in the field of Earth System Sciences, which
may attract the school's alumni to continue their international
research career. The Helmholtz Research School on Earth System
Sciences, based at the AWI and supported by the Uni-HB and Jacobs
University, will be a forum to maintain and enhance the city state
Bremen's existing reputation in research and education.

Ph.D. scholarship in Public Policy Evaluation

Deparment of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering,
Politecnico di Milano (Italy)

Yearly value of each PhD scholarship: € 13,000 of which approximately €
3,000 are held as retirement contributions.

Yearly net income of each PhD scholarship: approximately € 10,000.

Motivations and objectives of the research in this field: within the
context of increasing globalisation of firms and markets, most public
institutions are now aware of benefits stemming from both innovation and
internationalization of the economic activities. However, studies on the
evaluation of effectiveness and economic effects of public incentives
are still scant. Main difficulties concern: (i) the need of transparency
and examinations at regularly intervals; (ii) the difficulty of
distinguishing direct vs. indirect effects, and (iii) the need of
counterfactual evidence (what would have happened without the
incentive?). The present research project aims at developing both a
theoretical framework and an empirical analysis for the evaluation of
public policies and incentives to innovation and internationalization of
firms.
Methods and techniques that will be developed and used to carry out the
research: The research will be both theoretical (development of economic
models on the basis of the literature) and empirical (gathering of
primary and secondary data on direct and indirect effects of public
policies and incentives to innovation and internationalization).
Advanced statistic and econometric techniques will be applied in order
to test research hypotheses.

Educational objectives: acquiring a comprehensive knowledge of the
literature on public policies and incentives, and developing the
capacity of elaborating it in a critical manner. Developing advanced
statistical and econometric skills for testing theoretical hypotheses.
In short, becoming able to write scientific papers on the topic to be
published in top international journals.

Job opportunities: the issue of evaluation of public incentives to firms
is of great interest for both economic scholars and policy makers.
People earning a Ph.D. in this field can yearn for both an academic
carrier (public policy evaluation is among the research lines of
important economic and management departments) and a carrier in national
and international public bodies.

Composition of the research group: a Full Professor, an Assistant
Professor, two Dost-Docs, a PhD student, a contracted researcher.

Research director: Lucia Piscitello
e-mail: lucia.piscitello @ polimi.it
Application has to be received by 15. October 2008.

Universitetet i Bergen

5007 BERGEN


English

Research Fellow (PhD position) in Chemistry at Department of
Chemistry - re-announcement

At the Department of Chemistry ( http://www.kj.uib.no/ ) a 3-year
position as Research Fellow is available from 1 September 2008 (or
earlier) in the field of petroleum chemistry/acoustics within the
project "Epsilon multiphase flow measurement".

The position is financed by "The Michelsen Centre for Industrial
Measurement Science and Technology" (
http://www.michelsencentre.com/ ), a centre for research based
innovation (CRI) financed by the Research Council of Norway and
partners in the CRI. The project is carried out in a cooperation
between the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Physics and
Technology
( http://ifteng.iportal.uib.no/ ) (UiB), Christian Michelsen Research
AS

partner Roxar ASA
( http://www.roxar.com/.). The place of work will be at the
Department of Chemistry.

The PhD work will focus on collecting chemical, electrical and
physical fluid data for representative petroleum production
wellstream systems and analysing the correlation between them, in
order to establish fluid property models that can result in more
reliable and accurate interpretation of the inputs to multiphase
meters. The focus will be on frequency dependent models for
calculation of complex permittivity for fluid mixtures that are
present during the production of hydrocarbons by the petroleum
industry. The models will be used to increase the accuracy and
reliability of the measurements under a wide range of flow
conditions. One topic of high interest is the effects of commonly
used process enhancing additives on the electromagnetic properties of
the production fluids. The work will address both chemical and
physical aspects of the systems, and the project requires integration
of elements from several research fields.

A description of the position can be downloaded from the Internet:
