Modeling Compact Objects with Effective Field Theory by Martinez, Rodriguez Irvin Fabian

“…In this master's thesis we have developed a worldline Effective Field Theory of compact objects, by extending the model of spinning extended objects derived using the coset construction [1], from which one can derive the effective theory from symmetry principles. …”

Forecasting and modelling the VIX using Neural Networks by Netshivhambe, Nomonde

“…The segmentation of the periods caters for the changes in the predictive power of the aforementioned models, given the dierent market conditions. When forecasting the VIX, we show that the best performing model is found in the Calm Period. …”

Pricing, Calibration and Hedging under the LIBOR model by Menziwa, Singalakha

“…The simulation is conducted within the LIBOR model framework. While inconsistent with the model assumptions, the Black method performed equally well as the LIBOR method as we obtained similar hedging profit and loss distributions even at high portfolio rebalancing frequencies.…”

Multi-curve frameworks and information-based models by Mahomed, Obeid

“…Given the xy-approach, existing multi-curve frameworks based on HJM and rational pricing kernel models are recovered, reviewed, and generalised; and single-curve models are extended to a multicurve setting. …”

Modelling dependance in collateralied debt obligations with copulas by Linley, Christopher

“…In this paper we provide a review of credit derivatives, and some of the tools used to model them. We give a basic introduction to copulas and how they are used to model the depedence between single name credit derivatives. …”
