Rike from GermanyHow did you find out about Lund University?“I took a Bachelor’s in biochemistry in my home country Germany and I switched to ecology for my Master’s. I started my Master’s degree in Germany, but I didn’t like it that much, so I looked for something else. I was always really interested in ecology and environmental issues outside of the University, so I was looking for something rel

Kursen introducerar de teoretiska koncept, baserade på kvantmekanik och speciell relativitetsteori, som behövs för att beskriva relativistiska partiklar och deras växelverkan. Kursen börjar med Klein-Gordon och Dirac ekvationerna, vilka beskriver fria skalärpartiklar respektive fermioner, och deras kvantisering. Det visas sedan hur växelverkan kan inkluderas med hjälp av störningsteori och hur de This course introduces the theoretical concepts, based on quantum mechanics and the special theory of relativity, needed to describe relativistic particles and their interactions. The course starts out with the Klein-Gordon and Dirac field equations, describing free scalar particles and fermions respectively, and their quantization. It is then shown how interactions can be included in perturbation

A tacit assumption in the field of consciousness studies is that the more empirical evidence a theory can explain, the better it fares when weighed against competitors. If one wants to take seriously the potential for empirical evidence to move forward debates in consciousness studies, there is a need to gather, organize, validate, and compare evidence. We present an inference to the best explanat

The course discusses the economic history of pre-modern Europe (c. 1000-1890). At the beginning of this period, Europe, after centuries of stagnation, gradually began to develop, first in the Italian city-states and the Mediterranean. After 1500, when the Europeans arrived in the Americas the centre of gravity moved to the Atlantic coastline and North Sea region.

Extremvärdesteori handlar om extrema händelser orsakade av slumpen. Man gör matematiska modeller för extremvärden och utvecklar statistiska metoder för dem. Extrema värden är av intresse för bl a ekonomi, säkerhets- och tillförlighetsteknik, försäkringsmatematik, hydrologi, meteorologi, miljövetenskap och oceanografi och grenar av statistiken som sekvensanalys och robust statistik. Teorin används Extreme value theory concerns mathematical modelling of extreme events. Recent developments have introduced very flexible and theoretically well motivated semi-parametric models for extreme values which now are at the stage where they can be used to address important technological problems on handling risks in areas such as wind engineering, hydrology, flood monitoring and prediction, climatic cha

KEMM48. Kursens mål är att studenten ska tillägna sig grundläggande kunskaper om statistisk mekanik. Ett viktigt mål med kursen är att studenten ska tillägna sig en fördjupad förståelse för begreppet entropi och därmed överbrygga motsättningen mellan en mikroskopisk ansats (statistisk mekanik) och en makroskopisk (termodynamik). Kursen handlar om att förstå och härleda makroskopiska (termodynKEMM48. The objective of the course is to enable students to acquire basic knowledge of statistical mechanics. An important objective is to enable students to acquire specialised understanding of the concept of entropy and thereby bridge the opposition between a microscopic approach (statistical mechanics) and a macroscopic one (thermodynamics).  The course is about understanding and der

Kursen består av två (dock inte fristående) delar. I det första momentet kommer vi att inrikta oss mot optionsteori i diskret tid. Avsikten är att snabbt och enkelt definiera vissa nyckelord som arbitragefrihet och kompletthet, samt martingaler och martingalmått. Vi kommer att använda trädstrukturer för att modellera tidsutveckling för aktiekurser och informationsflöden. Under det andra momentet The course consists of two related parts. In the first part we will look at option theory in discrete time. The purpose is to quickly introduce fundamental concepts of financial markets such as free of arbitrage and completeness as well as martingales and martingale measures. We will use tree structures to model time dynamics of stock prices and information flows. In the second part we will study
