Dear Random subscribers, this is a friendly reminder that Random is a list of announcements about events of interest in probability, such as conferences, seminars, open positions, etc, but not a forum of discussion. Random has always been an open mailing list, in particular message submission is non-moderated. For this reason, it is important that all members adhere to the simple rules of the list. We take the occasion to remind you that an archive of all messages posted to Random since 2013 is available at the following link: https://fields.dm.unipi.it/pipermail/random/ that you can also find at the bottom of any message posted to Random. Whenever you send a message to Random, if you don't receive the message yourself (which sometimes can happen, due to a bug), you can check the above page to be sure that the message has been posted and thus avoid multiple postings. We also invite all subscribers to avoid the use of "heavy attachments" and, whenever possible, to replace them with links to resources available online. We remind that the list is currently congfigurated with a message size limit of 4 MB. With our best regards, the Random administrators

International Conference in Venice - CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

19^th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE CREDIT 2020 */Assessing and Managing Climate Change Risk: /* */Opportunities for Financial Institutions/* Venice, Italy 26 –27 September 2019 *COVID-19 update: the CREDIT 2020 Conference is both onsite and online but we are ready to move the conference remotely, if necessary.* *GRETA Associati*(Venice, Italy), *Cattolica Assicurazioni *(Verona, Italy), *European DataWarehouse* (Frankfurt am Main, Germany), *CRIF* (Bologna, Italy), *European Investment* *Fund *(Luxembourg), *European Investment Bank* (Luxembourg) and*Intesa Sanpaolo *(Milan, Italy) are co-sponsors of a Conference to be held in Venice on September 24-25, 2020. The objective of the Conference is to bring together academics, practitioners and PhD students working in the area of risk management. The conference will provide an opportunity for participants engaged in research at the forefront of this area to discuss both the causes and implications of recent financial and climate-related events and may, in turn, suggest fruitful and policy-relevant directions for future research. The Conference, organised under the auspices of the *Department of Economics and VERA - Venice centre in Economic and Risk Analytics for public policies* (University Ca’ Foscari of Venice), *ABI - Italian Banking Association*, *AIAF - Associazione Italiana per l'Analisi Finanziaria* and the *Joint Research Center*, *European Commission* (Ispra, Italy), is the *nineteenth *of a series dedicated to various aspects of credit risk. /The UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the adoption of European Commission’s Action Plan on Sustainable Finance mark important international commitments to the objective of a more sustainable economy and society. However, their successful implementation is tightly related to the scaling up of low-carbon investments and divestment from carbon-intensive investments. This, in turn, requires an assessment of the credit risks stemming from investors’ exposure to economic activities and assets that could be stranded by climate change. For instance, regulators’ discussion about the revision of capital requirements aimed to foster green investments (i.e. a green-supporting or a brown-penalising factor) is hampered by the unclear understanding of the implications of a regulatory change on individual institutions and systemic financial risk. Thus, financing the low-carbon transition is primarily a discussion about credit risk./ /The financial sector, and in particular the banking and insurance industries need to develop new portfolios’ risk management strategies and to adjust their credit allocation practices to cope with the opportunities and challenges of the low-carbon transition in the economy and finance. All these changes call for a substantial amount of research to improve the knowledge of the mechanisms at play and to design tailored and effective policy tools./ The SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE consists of: *Monica Billio *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice & GRETA, Programme Chair)** *Marina Brogi *(Sapienza University of Rome)** *Francesca Campolongo*(Joint Research Center, European Commission)** *Helmut Kraemer-Eis*(European Investment Fund)** *Rainer Haselmann*(Goethe University, Frankfurt)** *Irene Monasterolo*(Vienna University of Economics and Business)** *Steven Ongena *(University of Zurich, Swiss Finance Institute, KU Leuven & CEPR)** *Roberto Rigobon*(MIT Sloan School of Management)** *Stephen Schaefer*(London Business School) PROGRAMME *Thursday, September 24 2020* *08.30_Registration_* *09.00_Welcome and Opening Remarks_* *09.15_Session I: Regulation and Corporate Strategies_* •*Keynote talk: */TBA - /*Marina Brogi*,**Sapienza University of Rome •/Exporting Pollution: Where Do Multinational Firms Emit CO2? - /*Yeejin Jang*, University of New South Wales, Sidney(join with Itzhak Ben-David, Stefanie Kleimeier and Michael Viehs) •/National Climate Policies and Corporate Internal Carbon Pricing - /*Gianfranco Gianfrate*, EDHEC Business School, Rubaix(join with Nuno Bento and Joseph Aldy) *11.00_Coffee break_* *11.30_Session II: Climate Change_* •/Results presentation of EIBURS Project - /*Loriana Pelizzon*, SAFE-Goethe University Frankfurt & Ca’ Foscari University of Venice •/Climate Change Awareness: Empirical Evidence for the European Union - /*Claudio Morana*,**University of Milano-Bicocca, Collegio Carlo Alberto, Turin & Rimini Centre for Economic Analysis (join with Donatella Baiardi) •/Climate Change Concerns and Mortgage Lending - /*Frank Weikai Li*, Singapore Management University(join with Tinghua Duan) *13.00_Lunch_* *14.15_Session III: Financial System_* •/The Next Step in Green Bond Financing - /*Dion Bongaerts*, Erasmus University Rotterdam(join with Dirk Schoenmaker) •*Unintended*/Consequences of the Global Derivatives Market Reform - /*Pauline Gandré*, University Paris Nanterre(join with Mike Mariathasan, Ouarda Merrouche and Steven Ongena) •*Better*/Fewer, but Better: Stock Returns and the Financial Relevance and Financial Intensity of Materiality - /*Costanza Consolandi*, University of Siena(join with Robert G.

seminar announcement
by Franco Flandoli 18 Jul '20

18 Jul '20

Announcement On Wednesday 22, July, h. 14:00 (Pisa time) Philipp Forstner, TU Darmstadt will give a talk, invited by Scuola Normale Superiore: Title: SQG driven by Space-Time White Noise: An Approach using Regularity Structures Abstract: We show the existence of solutions of the 2D dissipative surface quasi-geostrophic equation driven by space-time white noise. Solutions will be obtained as a limit of solutions to regularised and renormalised equations. Therefore, we give a short introduction into the theory of regularity structures and show how the renormalisation procedure is done. The seminar can be attended at: https://meet.google.com/eyz-xwyc-ssn Franco Flandoli and Martin Saal

seminario web Luisa Andreis, martedì 14 ore 17, Politecnico di Torino
by Enrico Bibbona 13 Jul '20

13 Jul '20

Martedì 14 luglio alle 17 si terrà il seminario di Luisa Andreis (WIAS, Berlin), virtualmente ospitata dal DISMA Politecnico di Torino, dal titolo The phase transition in random graphs and coagulation processes: a large deviation approach il link per seguire il talk è https://zoom.us/j/91884592112?pwd=dWxIYmlnUHFSUVVJLzF4Z1hCclcxQT09 Meeting ID: 918 8459 2112 Password: 9n1AQD Segue l'abstract Cordiali saluti, Enrico Bibbona Inhomogeneous random graphs are a natural generalization of the well- known Erdos Rényi random graph, where vertices are characterised by a type and edges are independent but distributed according to the type of the vertices that they are connecting. In the sparse regime, these graphs undergo a phase transition in terms of the emergence of a giant component exactly as the classical Erdos Rényi model. In this talk we will present an alternative approach, via large deviations, to prove this phase transition. This allows a comparison with the gelation phase transition that characterises some coagulation processes and with phase transitions of condensation type emerging in several systems of interacting components. This is an ongoing joint work with Wolfgang K ̈onig (WIAS and TU Berlin), Robert Patterson (WIAS) and Heide Langhammer (WIAS).

(RE-OPENED) CALL FOR ABSTRACTS NETSCI2020 - SATELLITE CONFERENCE "STATISTICAL MECHANICS METHODS FOR NETWORKS” https://sites.google.com/view/smmn <https://sites.google.com/view/smmn> The NetSci 2020 conference has been confirmed in on-line mode and we would like to draw your attention to a satellite session which will take place before the main conference. Since there are some available spots for contributed talks, we invite interested applicants to submit one-page abstract, to be considered for the satellite session. The objective of the Satellite conference on "Statistical Mechanics Methods for Networks” is to bring together academics, young researchers and PhD students working in the area of statistical models of both static and dynamic networks. A particular focus is then given to the study of methods based on Statistical Mechanics of networks, which permit the learning of mechanisms driving the formation and the evolution of the networked systems. The Satellite will provide an opportunity for participants engaged in research at the forefront of this area to discuss the novel results and may, in turn, suggest fruitful and relevant directions for future research.

The case U(x)=x^2 is the well-studied lattice Gaussian free field, while one-dimensional random surfaces are equivalent to random walks. Our focus is on dimensions d>=2 and general U. Brascamp-Lieb-Lebowitz conjectured in 1975 that such random surfaces are localized in dimensions d>=3 under mild assumptions on U. Their work establishes the conjecture when U is uniformly convex (its second derivative is uniformly bounded from zero), as a consequence of the Brascamp-Lieb concentration inequality. To date, this remains the main case for which the conjecture is verified, with the result missing even when U(x) = x^4. We establish new concentration inequalities for log-concave distributions, extending the Brascamp-Lieb inequality, and use them to prove localization in many new cases, including the family U(x) = |x| ^p with p>1. Further consequences regard the maximum height for a class of random surfaces discussed by Deuschel-Giacomin (2000). The talk will be a gentle introduction to the model and the results. No prior knowledge of random surfaces or log-concave distributions will be assumed. Joint work with Alexander Magazinov. 15.00: UTC Omer Angel (Vancouver): Excited martingales Abstract: We consider a random walk that moves in the Z^2 that moves vertically on the first visit to each site and horizontally on subsequent visits. We give new lower bounds on the growth of the range of such walks.
