↠A closed-form (symbolic) solution to determine the optimal front-running trade, and ↠Comparative insights into which DEX fee models are more vulnerable to MEV extraction. The session offered a unique blend of economic intuition and mathematical rigour, bridging blockchain

to capture risk-free profits by front-running and back-running user swaps. 💡The lecture delved into: ↠The modelling of DEX trading states and fee structures (fee-from-amount-in vs. fee-from-amount-out), ↠The predator–prey dynamics of attacker and user transactions,

🧩Dr Richardson explored the intricate mechanics of sandwich attacks in Decentralised Exchanges (DEXs), a critical aspect of Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) research. He walked the audience through the mathematical underpinnings of how attackers exploit transaction ordering

🎓 It was a pleasure to host Dr Mark Richardson @MBRichardson87 , Project Lead at @Bancor , for the Seminar Series at the UZH Blockchain Center for his talk “DEX MEV Closed-Form Sandwich Attacks".
