Studio degli aspetti teorici e fenomenologici della fisica di particelle

In questa tesi sono state indagate le condizioni cinematiche e dinamiche in cui potrebbero essere rilevati possibili neutrini superluminali ossia con massa quadrata negativa emessi nel decadimento binario di pioni. Si è ricavato che sopra un'energia di soglia pionica il comportamento dell'energia dei neutrini tachionici rispetto all'angolo di emissione cambia drasticamente rispetto al caso bradionico ordinario; in particolare, sopra l'energia di soglia, che dipende dalla massa del neutrino...

Financial models with Lévy processes

This dissertation studies option pricing, portfolio selection, and risk management assuming exponential-Lévy models in financial markets. Option pricing of European, American, and path-dependent derivatives is dealt with the markovian approach. Markovian approach has been introduced by Duan and Simonato [26] to price American options under Wiener and GARCH processes, and then Duan et al. [27] has shown how to price barrier options. This dissertation proposes to extend the markovian approach to...

The role of a local trade union in the promotion of direct employee voice in workplaces: Towards organised disintermediation?

Set against the background of the increasing centrality of knowledge in production processes and the subsequent affirmation of managerial-led forms of cognitive employee participation in many Western economies, this research project concentrates on the role of trade unions, considered as traditional bulwarks of workers’ voice, in response to this trend. In the context of a large literature generally depicting a quite conservative trade union approach to these changes, the purpose of this rese...
