Research Interests: 

I am a second year DPhil student in Mathematical and Computational Finance group.

My research interests lie in probability theory and its interplay with Mathematical Finance. Together with Jan Obłoj I try to develop the robust pricing and hedging framework further to allow for more flexible incorporation of both, market and statistical information. In particular, we try to incorporate statistical confidence intervals on total realised volatility and understand the consequences for pricing, pathwise hedging and forms of arbitrage. Key mathematical tool for doing this include optimality properties of solutions to the Skorokhod embedding problem and pathwise stochastic calculus.
