RESEARCH
Research at the frontier of finance.
Advanced computation provides analytical methods; blockchains provide settlement and verification infrastructure; agentic systems connect these capabilities through autonomous decisions and programmable payments. Quantum and blockchain are the primary emphasis.

1 / INTELLIGENCE
Agentic Finance
Autonomous AI agents in financial markets, agent-to-agent payments and the separation of inference from execution authority. The focus is on verification, accountability and replayable assurance, linking intelligent decisions with blockchain enforcement.
Governed AI-Agent Coordination
Cross-domain application in dementia care · 2026
Governed agent coordination, persistent memory, safety contracts and evidence-derived workflow verification.
Computational Finance (Quantum Computing)
3 / COMPUTATION
Quantum and quantum-inspired methods for portfolio optimisation, derivative pricing, risk estimation, machine learning and post-quantum security. Current work includes hybrid quantum–classical methods and the Quantum Network of Assets (QNA), a density-operator framework for market dependence and structural risk. QNA is quantum-inspired, not a claim of quantum-hardware execution.
