Andreas Nordvall Lagerås

I'm on leave of absence from 1 August 2009, working as financial mathematician at AFA insurance.

Supervision

I supervise Patrik Andersson who studies games of chance (hasardspel).

Research

I'm interested in many facets of probability theory: both the theory itself and its applications, e.g. actuarial, financial or biological. I'm a member of the Stockholm Group for Epidemic Modeling, S-GEM.

Publications (Most preprints can be found at ArXiv.)
