Saluti Alessandra ************************************************************************************* Mercoledì 22 Maggio, ore 16:00, Aula di Consiglio Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma Speaker: Kirone Mallick (Institut de Physique Théorique, Parigi) Title: Continuous-time Quantum Walks Abstract: Quantum analogs of classical random walks have been defined in quantum information theory as a useful concept to implement algorithms. Due to interference effects, statistical properties of quantum walks can drastically differ from their classical counterparts, leading to much faster computations. In this talk, we shall discuss various statistical properties of continuous-time quantum walks on a lattice, such as: survival properties of quantum particles in the presence of traps (i.e. a quantum generalization of the Donsker-Varadhan stretched exponential law), the growth of a quantum population in the presence of a source, quantum return probabilities and Loschmidt echoes. ************************************************* Prof. Alessandra Faggionato http://www1.mat.uniroma1.it/~faggionato/ Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome Office 5, Phone (0039) 06 49913252 *************************************************

Colloquium di Luca Trevisan a Roma Tre il 12/06/19
by Pietro Caputo 13 May '19

COLLOQUIUM DI MATEMATICA Luca Trevisan U.C. Berkeley Titolo: Some simple distributed network processes Mercoledi' 12 Giugno 2019 ORE 16:00 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Aula M3, edificio Aule - Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 Abstract We will describe network processes in which, at each step, each node communicates with its neighbors, or a random subset of neighbors, and updates its state according to the outcome of these communications. We will first talk about processes in which each node updates its state to be "more like" the state of the neighbors. In a complete communication network, such protocols provide a solution to the problem of reaching a consensus, and they do so in a way that is robust to adversarial interventions. In a communication network with a clustered structure, such protocols give a decentralized solution to the community detection problem. We will then discuss a protocol in which each node wants to choose a constant number of neighbors in such a way that the resulting constant-degree subnet of the communication network is an expander. This is done in a way to similar to how virtual networks are formed in peer-to-peer protocols. We show that if the original communication network is a dense expanders, the protocol will construct a constant-degree expander. (Based on joint work with Luca Becchetti, Andrea Clementi, Pasin Manurangsi, Emanuele Natale, Francesco Pasquale and Prasad Raghavendra.)

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the de Finetti Risk Seminars, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following Lecture Samuel Cohen University of Oxford Title: Multi-armed bandits with uncertainty Abstract: Making good decisions based on estimates is difficult, but of clear importance in many applications. This is particularly the case when the decisions made will affect the information available in the future. Formally, this means that the filtration of our problem is not fixed in advance, but depends on the control used. We will consider the 'simplest' problem of this type, a multi-armed bandit problem, while taking account of uncertainty aversion. We will see that an extension of the classical Gittins' index approach is possible in this framework, despite many dynamic consistency issues.

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, scusandomi per invii multipli. ******************************************* A v v i s o d i S e m i n a r i o ******************************************* *Giovedì 16 Maggio, ore 11* Sala Rappresentanza, Dipartimento di Matematica, Universita' degli Studi di Milano via C. Saldini 50, Milano il Professor *CLAUDIO MACCI*(Università di Roma Tor Vergata) terrà un seminario dal titolo *Multivariate fractional (possibly compound) Poisson processes* ABSTRACT: We present multivariate space-time fractional Poisson processes by considering common random time-changes of a finite-dimensional vector of independent classical (nonfractional) Poisson processes. In some cases we also consider compound processes. We obtain some equations in terms of some suitable fractional derivatives and fractional difference operators, which provides the extension of known equations for the univariate processes. In particular we show that, for each fixed $t\geq 0$, the conditional joint distribution of the components given their sum is multinomial, as happens for the nonfractional Poisson processes. Thus we consider a suitable multivariate "alternative" fractional Poisson process, and we study its asymptotic behavior for large times (large and moderate deviations). The results appear in two papers with Luisa Beghin. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Another talk by Jacques Franchi at Tor Vergata
by Anna Vidotto 07 May '19

07 May '19

Dear all, I would like to announce a second talk that Jacques Franchi (I.R.M.A. Strasbourg) will hold on Thursday, May 9th 2019, at 11 AM in Aula Dal Passo of the Department of Mathematics, University of Rome Tor Vergata. Speaker: Jacques Franchi (I.R.M.A. Strasbourg) Title: From Euclidian to Riemannian and Relativistic Diffusions Abstract: Brownian Motion was first defined (in physics and in mathematics) in R and then in the Euclidian space. Then it was constructed on a generic Riemannian manifold, and gained a more geometrical status, which was intensively developed. More recently, on the unit tangent bundle of the Minkowski space and then of a generic Lorentzian manifold, was also constructed its analogue, called "relativistic diffusion". It keeps the geometric feature of being covariant with isometries, but is associated with strictly hypoelliptic and non-self-adjoint generators and kernels. Examples were studied : the Schwarzschild geometry, the G"odel universe, the Robertson-Walker manifolds. However the use of relativistic diffusions to address geometrical questions about Lorentzian geometry or analysis is much harder than in the elliptic (Riemannian) case.

Seminario di Massimo Franchi a Tor Vergata
by Anna Vidotto 04 May '19

04 May '19

Dear all, I would like to announce the following talk that will be held on Friday May 10th 2019, at 4:30 PM, in Aula D’Antoni (1101) of the Department of Mathematics, University of Rome Tor Vergata. Speaker: Massimo Franchi (Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, Sapienza Università di Roma) Title: Cointegration in Functional Autoregressive Processes Abstract: In this talk we define the class of H-valued autoregressive (AR) processes with a unit root of finite type, where H is an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, and derive a generalization of the Granger-Johansen Representation Theorem valid for any integration order d = 1, 2, . . . . An existence theorem shows that the solution of an AR with a unit root of finite type is necessarily integrated of some finite integer d and displays a common trends representation with a finite number of common stochastic trends of the type of (cumulated) bilateral random walks and an infinite dimensional cointegrating space. A characterization theorem clarifies the connections between the structure of the AR operators and (i) the order of integration, (ii) the structure of the attractor space and the cointegrating space, (iii) the expression of the cointegrating relations, and (iv) the triangular representation of the process.

STATISTICS SEMINARS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO Venerdì 10 Maggio 2019, alle ore 12:00, presso il nuovo edificio del Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Francesco STINGO (Università di Firenze) STATISTICAL METHODS FOR PRECISION MEDICINE: PROGNOSTIC AND PREDICTIVE MODELING Cancer is a heterogeneous disease at different molecular, genomic and clinical levels. Identification of prognostic and predictive biomarkers is of critical importance in developing personalized treatment for clinically and molecularly heterogeneous diseases such as cancer. I will first present a prognostic model for the identification of patient-specific biomarkers based on protogenomics data; this novel Bayesian hierarchical varying-sparsity regression (BEHAVIOR) model selects clinically relevant disease markers by integrating proteogenomic (proteomic+genomic) and clinical data. In the second part of the talk I will present a Bayesian predictive method for personalized treatment selection that is devised to integrate both the (previously identified) treatment predictive and disease prognostic characteristics of a particular patient’s disease. The method appropriately characterizes the structural constraints inherent to prognostic and predictive biomarkers, and hence properly utilizes these complementary sources of information for treatment selection. ------------------------------------------------ Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative (www.carloalberto.org/stats) in collaborazione con il Collegio Carlo Alberto.

Seminario M. Mariani a Pavia - 7 maggio
by Carbone Raffaella 03 May '19

03 May '19

Cari colleghi, vi annuncio che Martedì 7 maggio 2019 alle ore 14 precise, in Aula Beltrami del dipartimento di Matematica "F. Casorati" (Università di Pavia) il Prof. Mauro Mariani (HSE Mosca) terrà un seminario dal titolo: METASTABLE REGIMES OF DIFFUSION PROCESSES nell'ambito del Seminario di matematica applicata. Abstract. I will discuss a classical example featuring a metastable behavior: finite-dimensional diffusion processes in the vanishing noise limit. Exponential estimates have been introduced fifty years ago by Freidlin and Wentzell. Recent developments in potential theory and variational convergence allowed a refinement of those results. I will focus on the non-reversible case, with motivations coming from MonteCarlo methods. Cordiali saluti, Raffaella Carbone, PhD Ricercatore di Probabilità e Statistica Matematica Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Pavia

Seminario L. Torricelli - DSE Verona

AVVISO di SEMINARIO 7 May 2019 - Polo Santa Marta, Via Cantarane 24, Sala Vaona (Room 1.59) Speaker: Lorenzo Torricelli Title: Stochastic clock methods for trade duration in option pricing Abstract: Stochastic clock and in-business-time return models are useful in finance to recover Gaussianity of asset returns by means of re-normalisation with an increasing process (a time change) capturing the market activity (number of trades and their sizes) through time. When applied to a Brownian motion parent process, absolutely continuous time changes give raise to stochastic volatility return models, whereas if the stochastic clock is an independent Lévy subordinator, a new pure jump Lévy model is attained. In this talk I introduce a third way of using stochastic clock techniques, specifically geared towards modelling stochasticity in the times of price revisions, i.e. trade duration, within a Lévy-based, continuous-time finance framework. By using as a time change the first hitting time process of a Lévy subordinator we turn a jump process into a continuous but locally constant one, thus obtaining a stochastic clock which can be interpreted as a calendar time where the price evolution is halted at random instants. I illustrate some of the many applications such a technique may have, with a specific view to option pricing. I discuss three main topics: (i) modelling of regulatory and automated trading halts in equity markets; (ii); explicit identification of a market price of risk connected to liquidity factors; (iii) impact of dependence between duration and returns in the large maturity decay of the implied volatility skew. Explicit analytic pricing formulae can indeed be exhibited, making use of the fact that an analytic transform theory of appropriate inverse Lévy subordinators is fully developed. I finally suggest that the statistical fitting of such models poses delicate questions. For example, for a principled option prices calibration, it is critical to understand which of the trade duration parameters can be derived from the market implied risk-neutral distributions, and which are instead inherent to the market microstructure, and must therefore appear in the minimisation problem as a constraining factor. -- Prof Alessandro Gnoatto, PhD Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche Università degli Studi di Verona Via Cantarane 24 37129, Verona, Italy Room 1.05 Tel: +39 045 802 8537 Homepage: www.alessandrognoatto.com<http://www.alessandrognoatto.com> E-mail: alessandro.gnoatto(a)univr.it<mailto:alessandro.gnoatto@univr.it> -------------------------------------------------- View my research on my SSRN Author page: http://ssrn.com/author=1615989 --------------------------------------------------
