Dr Martin Herdegen

I am a Reader in Financial Mathematics. Before joining Warwick, I was a postdoc at ETH Zürich, Switzerland, with Johannes Muhle-KarbeLink opens in a new window. I hold a PhD in Mathematics from ETH Zürich, which was written under the supervison of Martin SchweizerLink opens in a new window.
