SUMMARY:Finance and Stochastics Seminar – Dorje Brody
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dorje Brody\nTitle: From mathematical finance to mathe
 matical politics \nAbstract: Generative models for market filtration offe
 r a highly effective way of obtaining realistic asset price dynamics to en
 hance risk management in financial markets. Such a construction goes beyon
 d the immediate realm of financial modelling. In this talk I outline how a
  similar technique can be applied to model dynamics of electoral competiti
 ons and other democratic processes: By constructing voter filtration it is
  possible to generate a dynamical model that can be used to work out\, for
  instance\, likelihoods of different candidates winning a future election 
 (which becomes analogous to pricing a digital option)\, as well as strateg
 ies to enhance success probabilities. I will also show that when there is 
 more than one information source\, they interact to generate the voter fil
 tration in a nontrivial manner such that optimal communication strategies 
 reduce to solving classical game-theoretic problems.
