Jeffrey Kwan is a Lecturer in Statistics at the School of Mathematics and Statistics. His research interest is in probability theory and stochastic processes. In particular, he is interested in self-exciting point processes (Hawkes processes) and their asymptotic behaviour. Jeffrey's Ph.D. was on proving and the application of ergodicity for non-stationary and non-exponential Hawkes processes. He received his Ph.D. in 2023. Jeffrey has also taught undergraduate and postgraduate courses on statistics, probability, and stochastic processes.
