Contract Theory and Mean Field Games to Inform Epidemic Models
Offered By: Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore contract theory and mean field games in relation to epidemic modeling in this virtual talk by Rene Carmona, Paul M. Wythes '55 Professor of Engineering and Finance at Princeton University. Begin with a concise introduction to contract theory before delving into recent findings on models involving one principal and a field of agents, covering both continuous and discrete state spaces. Conclude by examining an application of these concepts to control the spread of epidemics, demonstrating their potential to inform regulatory decisions. Moderated by Sebastian Jaimungal from the University of Toronto's Department of Statistical Sciences, this 1-hour and 6-minute presentation offers valuable insights into the intersection of financial mathematics and epidemiology.
