de Finetti risk seminar - marzo 2014
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of The de Finetti Risk Seminars - on the Mathematical Theory of Economics and Finance in Milano, we are glad to invite you to participate at the "de Finetti Risk Seminar" on March 19, 2014 at 18.00 with the Lecture A continuous auction model with insiders GIULIA DI NUNNO University of Oslo ABSTRACT In a unified framework we study equilibrium in the presence of an insider having information on the signal of a firm value, which is naturally connected to the fundamental price of the firm related asset. The fundamental value itself is announced at some future random stopping time. We consider the two cases in which this release time of information is known and not known to the insider. We study the structure of the optimal insider's strategies in equilibrium and we discuss market efficiency in the two cases of insider's information. Some examples of explicit insider's strategy will be provided. This is joint work with Jose Manuel Corcuera, Gergely Farkas, and Bernt Øksendal. LOCATION: The seminar will be held on Wedsnesday, March 19, at 18.00 at Aula Chisini, Department of Mathematics, Milano University, Via Saldini 50, Milano. A refreshment will be offered at 17.30.

PhD position - Politecnico di Milano Dept. of Mathematics
by Simone Vantini 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

*Position:*PhD position in "Statistical Methods for Geosciences" in Mathematical Models and Methods in Engineering. *Institution:*Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy. *Duration:*3 years, beginning May 1, 2014. *Monthly net income:*1.200 euro. *Deadline for applications: *14:00 (GMT+1:00), March 18, 2014. *Details for applications: *please click here <http://www.ricerca.polimi.it/fileadmin/files/dottorato/concorso29/bandi_agg…> to download the official call. *Motivations and objectives of the research in this field:*Problems characterized by high-dimensional and complex data have become more and more common in engineering. Due to their complexity, in many situations these data contain redundant information since their underlying structure may involve only a reduced number of relevant features. This research aims at developing new methods for the detection of suitable subspaces where data (possibly spatially-dependent) can be represented, interpreted and analyzed. The interest extends also to the identification of suitable basis, which should capture the relevant geophysical features of the phenomenon under study and allow for computationally efficient statistical analysis. *Methods and techniques that will be developed and used to carry out the research:* The PhD program aims at training young researchers by providing them with a strong mathematical background and with ability to apply their knowledge to the solution of real-world problems in the areas of Statistics and Scientific Computing. *Educational objectives:*The PhD students carry their research both in the development of new mathematical methods and in the implementation and improvement of advanced techniques in connection with specific contexts and applications. Further information can be obtained by consulting the dedicated website http://www.mate.polimi.it/dottorato *Job opportunities:* Job opportunities are in companies and research agencies which are leaders in their respective fields. *Further Details:* please click here <http://www.ricerca.polimi.it/fileadmin/files/dottorato/concorso29/bandi_agg…>for further details. -- Simone Vantini MOX Laboratory for Modeling and Scientific Computing Dept. of Mathematics "F.

Il giorno Giovedi 13 Marzo alle ore 16 presso il GSSI (Gran Sasso Science Institute, L'Aquila) la Prof. *Inés Armendariz *del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Buenos Airesterrà il seguente seminario: *Title*: Scaling limit of the condensate dynamics in the zero-range process *Abstract*: We consider the zero-range process on the one dimensional torus with L sites and N particles, in the supercritical regime when N=L exceeds the critical density. It is known that in the stationary state, as L goes to infinity, the excess particles accumulate at a randomly chosen position, forming the condensate. We now show that, at the right scale, this condensates moves according to a Lévy process on the rescaled torus, with rates determined by the jump distribution of the original zero range process. For instance, for nearest neighbour probabilities, the limiting Lévy process will have rates inversely proportional to the jump length. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
