Advanced Mathematical Methods for Finance

Giulia Di Nunno and Bernt Øksendal are professors at the University of Oslo. Their work in stochastic analysis, control, and mathematical finance is internationally highly appreciated. They have been chairing the leadership of the large European ESF funded networking program AMaMeF in financial mathematics.
