Tomas Björk: The man behind the name

Session 1: About Tomas Björk

Abstract: This talk is meant to give some insight into the less known part of Tomas life. Among other things you will get to know that in his childhood Tomas used to act as magician, that later on he was a dance teacher at several studios in Stockholm, and that ever since he met Agneta, he became a family man truly enjoying his wife, children and grand children. Also that he kept a very special relationship with all his PhD students far longer and deeper than what is common in a student/supervisor relationship. He kept contact with all the “math finance gang” his entire life and is deeply missed by all of us.
