Trading, Market Impact and Nonlinear Systems
Wednesday, November 29, 2017
4:00-5:00 PM
1360 East Hall Map
We discuss problems where impact from optimal or equilibrium trading leads to challenging nonlinear systems and fixed point problems. These may arise from
i) Market impact from a significant group of portfolio optimizers in a constrained market with clearing conditions. ii) High frequency trading to a target.
iii) Oligopolies with a small number of influential players, or a continuum of players with aggregate impact.
iv) Optimal execution where trading speed is penalized.
These are addressed with computational and analytical methods, and well-posedness of the problems is crucial in the absence of general theory. Speaker(s): Ronnie Sircar (Princeton University)
