On the Name, and Who Is Behind It A note on Zero Theta, Pte. Ltd.
Abstract
This note records what the name means, how the company is arranged, and who is behind it. The author is one person; §3 states what is published about them, and why the rest is not.
1The name
Theta, Θ = ∂V/∂t, is the rate at which an option surrenders value to the passage of time; for the holder of a plain long option it is negative. Zero Theta is the state in which theta is held at zero — Θ ≡ 0, identically, an invariant maintained rather than a limit approached. Time passes; value does not erode. The invariant is a design principle — a standard for how the systems are built and kept — not a claim about returns.
The constraint is meant more broadly than the Greeks: work arranged so that the passage of time takes nothing from it.
2Structure
Zero Theta is a frontier AI trading research lab, arranged as two pillars: Elysium, the product [Elysium →], and Zero Theta Labs, the research arm [Labs →]. Case notes on the systems are collected in [Work →].
We publish no performance figures: the systems are described precisely enough to be examined, and we prefer examination to admiration.
3The founder
Zero Theta has one author, with a background in computer vision, agentic AI, and quantitative research.
No further biography is published. Every claim on this site is meant to be examinable; credentials that cannot be examined here are available by correspondence instead.1
4Correspondence
If the systems described here are relevant to you, write. Questions, objections to any claim, and conversations about work of the same kinds are equally welcome.
