Thurs, Dec 11 6:30-8:00MoMath is pleased to announce the 2025 edition of Simplified, a lecture honoring the memory of Peter Carr, a Founding Trustee of the National Museum of Mathematics.
The Black-Scholes-Merton model transformed finance by showing how to value an option using expected payoff and stochastic calculus. But just five years later, Stephen Ross proved that no probability was required at all — just a careful accounting of prices and cash flows over time. In this talk, Keith Lewis revisits and extends Ross’s breakthrough, offering a clean, intuitive framework for understanding derivative valuation. By treating cash flows and prices as equal components of any trading strategy, Lewis shows how we can model and manage risk without heavy technical machinery. Whether you're steeped in quantitative finance or just curious how modern markets really work, this talk offers a simplified (and powerful) lens for understanding the mathematics behind the money.
