26th Annual Coalition Theory Network Conference

May 15 - 16, 2023 - Bielefeld, Germany

Bielefeld University and the Center for Mathematical Economics (IMW) are happy to host the 26th Coalition Theory Network Conference on Monday 15 – Tuesday 16 May 2023.

The Coalition Theory Network (CTN) is an association of nine high-level scientific institutions whose aim has been the advancement and diffusion of research in the (very broadly defined) areas of network theory and coalition formation for almost thirty years. From their beginning, their annual workshop has brought together European scholars to discuss current developments, form new collaborations, and foster the use of these theoretical works in applied research. While the theories of cooperative games, coalition formation, social choice, and mechanism design have a long tradition in economics, in recent years, they have attracted a lot of attention in computer sciences as well: computational aspects of social choice and mechanisms have been investigated; theories of network and coalition formation have been used in task allocation and parallel computing; mechanisms have been designed for the operation of crypto currencies; power indices have been used to identify key features in machine learning algorithms. Thus, this year’s workshop will have a particular focus on these intersections of economics and computer science.

Advances in Stochastic Control and Optimal Stopping with Applications in Economics and Finance

September 12-16, 2022 - Luminy, France

The interactions between stochastic control, optimal stopping, mathematical economics and mathematical finance will be at the core of the conference. This event will bring together leading experts and promising young researchers from different scientific backgrounds, interested in the interplay between theoretical and applied research. New developments in some of the most active research fields will be presented, such as: robustfinance, backward stochastic differential equations, non-linear expectations and non-linear optimal stopping, singular stochastic control, model-freefinance, principal-agent problems, mean-field games, behavioural finance, market equilibria. The conference will place an emphasis on the connections between the areas and on directions for future research. We expect a high-level and high-impact event which will inspire new collaborations and will open avenues for new applications.
