Two topics in financial mathematics : Forward utility and consumption functions & Hedging with variance swaps in infinite dimensions
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, 2010-10)
Financial Mathematics is often presented as being composed of two main branches: one dealing with investment and consumption, with the aim of answering the now ancient question of how people should invest and spend their ...
How can PD process modelling be made more useful? An exploration of factors which influence modelling utility
(2010-05)
In what sense is PD process modelling useful? and how can the utility of modelling be improved?
In this paper, we approach these questions through an analysis of PD process modelling ‘utility’ – which in broad terms we ...
Semiclassical instabilities of Kerr-anti-de Sitter black holes
(Physical Review D - Particles, Fields, Gravitation and Cosmology, 2010-01-05)
On three-point correlation functions in the gauge/gravity duality
(Journal of High Energy Physics, 2010-12-09)
Comparison of multimarker logistic regression models, with application to a genomewide scan of schizophrenia.
(2010-09-09)
Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a widely used study design for detecting genetic causes of complex diseases. Current studies provide good coverage of common causal SNPs, but not rare ones. A ...
Design as a strategic resource : design's contributions to competitive advantage aligned with strategy models
(University of CambridgeDesign Management Group : Institute for Manufacturing : Department of Engineering, 2010-03-16)
The instanton liquid and the axion
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 2010-05-04)
The ultimate goal of this thesis is to improve our understanding of the cosmology of axions. Axions couple to QCD
instantons and these non-perturbative effects are modeled within the framework of the interacting instanton ...
Numerical solutions of the general relativistic equations for black hole fluid dynamics
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSelwyn College, 2010-05-04)
The aims of this thesis are to develop and validate a robust and efficient algorithm for the numerical solution of the equations of General Relativistic Hydrodynamics, to implement the algorithm in a computationally efficient ...
Heavy quark physics on the lattice with improved nonrelativistic actions
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical PhysicsSt John's College, 2010-03-16)
Hadrons containing heavy quarks, in particular b quarks, play an important role in high energy physics. Measurements of their electroweak interactions are
used to test the Standard Model and search for new physics. For ...
Numerical methods for systems of highly oscillatory ordinary differential equations
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 2010-06-08)
This thesis presents methods for efficient numerical approximation of linear and non-linear systems of highly oscillatory ordinary differential equations.
Phenomena of high oscillation is considered a major computational ...
