Dept.: E Duration: 2023 - 2025
Decentralized finance has been often synonymized with cryptocurrencies, cryptoassets, or even simply with Bitcoin not only in the public perception but to a high degree also in financial research. This project aims to dive deeper into decentralized finance and in a comprehensive manner explore and describe its structural aspects. We aim to answer how these features drive and influence dynamics...
Dept.: E Duration: 2020 - 2022
The project focuses on analysis of specific aspects of cryptoassets (cryptocurrencies), specifically on three main branches of research. First, we study the cryptoassets pricing mechanisms, mainly with respect to their fundamental factors such as number of users, number of transactions, traded volume, and others. The core models will be constructed utilizing the quantity theory of money and...
Dept.: E Duration: 2017 - 2019
The project focuses on utilization of multifractal framework in finance and financial economics. Specifically, we focus on three main branches of research. First, we examine how occurrence of financial extreme events translates into multifractal properties of the time series. For this purpose, we utilize the cusp catastrophe theory and the log-periodic power-law model. Second, we study usefulness...
Dept.: E Duration: 2014 - 2016
The project focuses on analysis of financial time series in a framework of bivariate long memory with a special attention on power-law decaying cross-correlation function and its implications for dynamic properties of such processes. The first target is to use these implications for construction of statistical tests to distinguish between short and long memory. The second aim is to explore the...
