GIULIO OCCHIONERO
Quantitative Finance Researcher and Developer

ABOUT
Personal Profile
Since university, the focus of my work has been the application of advanced mathematical frameworks to random processes. Starting from the study of the Boltzmann equation in neutron transport, I envisioned how this tool could be utilized in the evolution of probability densities, thus somewhat mirroring the wave-function approach of quantum mechanics. Over the years, I have studied phenomena where probability evolves under more complex laws than the diffusion processes still widely adopted in quantitative sciences.
I study, model and code the above.
