A Short Course “Skorokhod Embedding and Applications in Mathematical Finance”

Speaker: Jan Obloj  (University of Oxford)

Skorokhod embedding is one of the most interesting problems in probability and stochastic processes, and have found profound applications in topical areas such as transportation problem, optimal stopping, and robust hedging. Obloj’s course will give a rare opportunity to learn systematically about this subject. The course will be conducted at CUHK. The teaching notes can be found :
