>>13600695>>13596473Not necessarily true. I hear Rentech does actually use some very obscure math like algebraic topology.
>>13596922>>13598386Take what I say with a grain of salt, im just repeating what a friend who used to be grad student acquaintances with one of their mathematicians.
The closest thing to describing what Medallion does is sparse signal reconstruction applied to a mindnumbing amount of data. The beauty of their system is it can seemingly (automatically) handle the constant collection, cleaning and parsing of all arbitrary publicly available data - anything to inform them of signals.
Also their cost estimation models are #1 in the industry. Of this I am certain. They can estimate how much their trades impact the market better than anyone.
