Research Area G My main focus are Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (BSDEs) as<br />
a powerful tool for solving stochastic control problems. E.g. we have appealed to BSDEs for<br />
solving the Skorokhod embedding problem, and we have derived time bounds up to which<br />
probability distributions can be embedded into a Brownian motion, possibly with drift.<br />
Research Area H A major focus of my research is market risk that can not be prefectly hed-<br />
ged, but only cross hedged with highly correlated traded proxies. In particular, I have studied<br />
the effect of stochastic correlation and cointegration on hedge ratios and hedging error characteristics.<br />
