(Reminder) Seminar Thursday 25 - Reciprocity in a Preferential Attachment Network
by Gianmarco Bet 24 Mar '21

24 Mar '21

Dear colleagues, This is a reminder that tomorrow (Thursday 25) at 16:00, prof. Tiandong Wang (Texas A&M) will give a virtual seminar “in Florence”, to which you are all invited. You can find title and abstract below this message. The seminar will be on Zoom, and the information to join is: Topic: Tiandong Wang - Reciprocity in a Preferential Attachment Network Time: Mar 25, 2021 04:00 PM Rome https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82762436142?pwd=MW45SWN6NTBqV0VWbVJWREhESmtaZz09 <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82762436142?pwd=MW45SWN6NTBqV0VWbVJWREhESmtaZz09> Meeting ID: 827 6243 6142 Passcode: 897951 If you know of someone who might be interested and is not subscribed to the random mailing list, please do not hesitate to forward this announcement to them. Kind regards, Gianmarco Title: Reciprocity in a Preferential Attachment Network Abstract: Empirical studies show that online social networks have not only in- and out-degree distributions with Pareto-like tails, but also a high proportion of reciprocal edges. A classical directed preferential attachment (PA) model generates in- and out-degree distribution with power-law tails, but theoretical properties of the reciprocity feature in this model have not yet been studied. We derive the asymptotic results on the number of reciprocal edges between two fixed nodes, as well as the proportion of reciprocal edges in the entire PA network. We see that with certain choices of parameters, the proportion of reciprocal edges in a directed PA network is close to 0, which differs from the empirical observation. This points out one potential problem of fitting a classical PA model to a given network dataset with high reciprocity, and indicates alternative models need to be considered. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Gianmarco Bet (he/him) Junior researcher https://gianmarco.bet Phone: (+39) 055 2751491 Department of Mathematics and Informatics "U.

Fwd: [owps] One World Probability Seminar Thursday March 25, 2021
by Faggionato, Alessandra 24 Mar '21

24 Mar '21

Buongiorno, vi inoltro l'annuncio del OWPS di domani, che riguarderà il modello $\phi^4_3$. Quello di domani sarà l'ultimo OWPS prima della pausa di Pasqua. Il OWPS riprenderà dopo le vacanze (credo il 15 Aprile) con moderatori Nina Gantert and Julien Berestycki. Saluti Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: One World Probability <ow.probability(a)gmail.com> Date: mer 24 mar 2021 alle ore 09:09 Subject: [owps] One World Probability Seminar Thursday March 25, 2021 To: <owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk> Tomorrow's speakers in the One World Probability Seminar are3(Note: all times are in UTC. *Due to time changes, you should check what that translates to in your location*) ------------------------------------------------ (14:00-15:00 UTC) Speaker: Hendrik Weber (University of Bath) Title: Phase transitions for $\phi^4_3$ - Part 1 Abstract: The $\phi^4$ model is a classical model in Mathematical Physics, arising e.g. as a continuous version of the Ising model, as a toy model for a Quantum field theory and it is also closely related to the invariant measures of certain Hamiltonian PDEs. The aim of this series of two talks is to discuss the infinite volume limit and the emergence of phase transitions for this model: we will show that in a certain parameter regime, the model exhibits a phase segregation behaviour, akin to the low temperature phase of the Ising model. In the first lecture I will put our result into perspective by first discussing the connection of continuous $\phi^4$ and discrete Ising models as well as the phase segregation in low temperature Ising models. I will then discuss a variational approach to estimating the $\phi^4$ partition function, which is due to Barashkov and Gubinelli and a key ingredient of our method. Based on Chandra, Gunaratnam, Weber, arXiv:2006.15933. (15:00-16:00 UTC) Speaker: Trish Gunaratnam (University of Geneva) Title: Phase transitions for $\phi^4_3$ - Part 2 Abstract: In this talk I will continue to discuss phase transitions for $\phi^4_3$. I will establish a surface order large deviations estimate for the average magnetisation at sufficiently low temperatures in large but finite volumes. This immediately gives an upper bound on the decay of the spectral gap for the associated $\phi^4_3$ singular SPDE in the infinite volume limit. At the heart of this result are the development of Peierls’ contour bounds for $phi^4_3$, which requires control over the small-scale divergences and the low temperature Hamiltonian. We achieve this by incorporating a low temperature expansion, inspired by Glimm, Jaffe, and Spencer’s classical work on $\phi^4_2$, within the variational representation of the $\phi^4_3$ via coarse-graining. Based on Chandra, Gunaratnam, Weber, arXiv:2006.15933. ------------------------------------------------ The zoom link will appear the day before on the OWPS website: https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar <https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.owpro…> It can also be directly accessed through the link below: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/82058081391?pwd=MWZTNEpZY2I3NEtYa0tFczdTenR0QT09 <https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funiroma1.…> Meeting ID: 820 5808 1391 Passcode: 493605 Please feel free to circulate this email.
