    Scientific program

    The workshop will focus on the following broad topics:
  • Optimal stopping
  • Multiple stoping rule and optimal stopping of spatial processes
  • The best choice problem and its generalisation, parking problem, job search problem
  • Stopping problems with contraints
  • Disorder problem
  • Prophet inequality
  • Stochastic games
  • Dynkin's game
  • Networking games
  • Randomized stopping rules
  • Option pricing
  • Variational inequalities

  • Optimal stopping problems with constraints

  • In addition to specially invited papers, the program committee will consider proposals for sessions and contributions of single papers.

    Working languages are English and Russian.

    Abstract and paper submission

    If you wish to present a paper, please send an extended abstract of the paper (in a LATEX or TEX file, size no more that 3 pages) before April 1, 2005 to Professor Vladimir Mazalov:
    ,
    Institute of Applied Mathematical Research, Karelia Research Center of Russian Academy of Sciences, Pushkinskaya 11, Petrozavodsk, 185090, RUSSIA.

    Acceptance of papers will be announced by June 1, 2005.

    Extended abstracts of the accepted papers will be published in seminar proceedings.

    In addition, the program committee will invite some of these authors to publish a full paper. These (and specially invited) papers will be published in the Proceedings of the workshop (Nauka Publishing House) and a special issue of the Russian journal "Survey of Applied and Industrial Mathematics" and the serial "Game Theory and Applications". The papers submitted for publication will be refereed following the usual proceedings of this series.

    More details about the meeting can be obtained from web page.

    Participation of Students

    The organizers wish to encourage students to attend the conference. To that effect, we consider a possibility to reduce seminar fee and appartment price. Details will be published on the seminar web page.
