Master's Thesis Projects in Stochastic Processes and Stochastic Calculus: I offer master's thesis projects that connect to the subject matter of my TMS165/MSA350- and MVE170/MSG800-courses. At present I have 6 ongoing master's thesis projects.

Jan presented his licentiate thesis "Modelling Percipitation in Sweden using Multiple Step Markov Chains and a Composite Model" in December 2008. Erik Brodin recived his phd-degree 9 March 2007 on the thesis "Extreme Value Statistics and Quantile Estimation with Applications in Finance and Insurance". Anders Muszta recived his phd-degree 1 April 2005 on the thesis "Contributions to Numerical Solution of Stochastic Differential Equations". Mattias Sunden recived his phd-degree 19 September 2008 on the thesis "Some Markov Processes in Finance and Kinetics". Ulrika Trolle recived her licentiate in June 2007 on the thesis "On Lévy Processes in Mathematical Finance".
Candidate Thesis Projects: I have had a total of 7 candidate thesis groups working with "Stochastic Modelling of Financial Time Series" during the years 2009-2011. I will not offer this or any other candidate thesis projects in the forseeable future.
