Peter Laurence Memorial Talks

  • Alexander Eydeland (Morgan Stanley)
  • Gulisashvili, Archil (Ohio University, US)

Professor Peter Laurence initiated the thematic program at WPI  on the mathematics for energy and commodity finance in 2010. Together with members of the organizing committee, Peter had a firm hand leading the thematic program up to August 2013, when he sadly passed away. Peter was very engaged at the WPI, organizing conferences and workshops, as well as intensive short training courses with a large audience from industry and academia. To honor his great contribution to mathematical finance in general, and the thematic program at WPI in particular, the professors Alexander Eydeland and Archil Gulisashvili will give the Peter Laurence Memorial Talks at the conference. 

Plenary speakers (confirmed)

  • Matt Davison (Western University, Ontario CA)
  • Georg Pflug (University of Vienna, Austria)
  • Ehud Ronn (University of Texas at Austin, US)
  • Thorsten Schmidt (University of Freiburg, Germany)

The conference is organized by Rene Aid (EDF), Fred Espen Benth (University of Oslo), Valery Kholodnyi (Verbund) and Almut Veraart (Imperial College and University of Oslo). The conference is co-funded through Almut Veraart’s Marie Curie FP7 Integration Grant (within the 7th European Framework Programme).
