Short CV

Aleksey Min studied Mathematics at the Tashkent State University (Uzbekistan). In June 2004 he completed his Ph.D. on limit theorems for statistical functionals under supervision of Prof. Denker at the University of Göttingen. Since July 2004 he is a research associate at the Technische Universität München. Aleksey Min first worked at the chair of Mathematical Statistics until March 2010. In April 2010 he changed to the chair of Mathematical Finance and became an academic advisor for students of the M.Sc. program Mathematical Finance and Actuarial Science. In January 2011 he habilitated (From regression to copulas) at the Faculty of Mathematics of the TU München.
Mr. Min was appointed as an adjunct professor by the TU Munich in February 2022.
