Research interests

My research mainly concerns modelling financial systems with uncertain price and uncertain physical flow. Optimisation of business decisions under uncertainty (Real Options) leads to non-linear PDEs which must be solved numerically. I have investigated such systems in the world of mining, working with the international leading mining software company Gemcom, and also within the framework of Revenue Management systems, working with the local business Inventive IT.

Personal

I play football for AFC Didsbury in the Manchester Amateur Sunday League, and am a fanatical Everton supporter. My wife and I have a baby daughter, Polly. Born in May this year, I hope she'll be solving PDEs by Christmas!
