Dear all,
we are glad to announce the following seminar:
Speaker: professor Giovanni Pistone (de Castro Statistics, Collegio Carlo Alberto)
Title: Affine Statistical Manifold: Finite State Space
Date and time: Monday 28 november at 2 pm
Place: room 508 at the Department of Mathematics, University of Genova
YouTube channel: 508dima
Abstract:
H. Weyl defines an affine space as a triple (M, V, ->), where V is a real vector space and M is a set with a binary external operation such that the parallelogram law holds. This notion was introduced in Relativity to derive simple notions of velocity and acceleration for curves in non-flat spaces. I have extended this setup to vector bundles to discuss the relevant affine geometries of the probability simplex. This type of study was called Information Geometry by S-i Amari. Especially, Amari and Nagaoka introduced a crucial notion of duality between mixture families and exponential families. J. Aitchinson developed a similar geometrical treatment of what he calls Statistics of Compositional Data. This affine setup is compatible but different with the metric set due to CR Rao and based on the observation that the Fisher information matrix of a statistical model defines a Riemannian metric on the probability simplex.
A previous lecture on similar topics is transcribed at http://www.j-npcs.org/online/vol2020/v23no2p221.pdf.
The present lecture is based on the material taken from https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.00917, https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/20/2/139, and https://arxiv.org/abs/1502.06718.<https://arxiv.org/abs/1502.06718>
The continuous case, not treated here, requires particular technical notions of differential geometry and functional analysis. See a summary at https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.07641
The seminar will be held in person and online via the YouTube channel: 508dima.
Best regards,
Fabio Rapallo

Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to the following SPASS
<https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass> seminar, jointly organized by
UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi:
*Ergodic results for the stochastic nonlinear damped Schroedinger equation*
by Margherita Zanella (Politecnico di Milano)
The seminar will take place in person on *TUE, 29.11.2022 at 14:00* in Aula
Seminari, Department of Mathematics, University of Pisa and streamed online
here <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>.

Abstract:
*T**itle: **Ergodic results for the stochastic nonlinear damped
Schroedinger equation*
*Abstract: *
*We study the nonlinear stochastic Schrödinger equation with linear
damping. We prove the existence of invariant measures in the case of two
dimensional compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary and compact
smooth domains of R^2 with either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions.
We prove the uniqueness of the invariant measure in R^d, d=2,3 when the
damping coefficient is sufficiently large. *
*The talk is based on joint works with B. Ferrario and Z. Brzeźniak.*
Dear all,
we are glad to inform you about the workshop *"Social Network Dynamics and
Impact on Financial Markets"*, organized by the IMT School in collaboration
with the Tor Vergata University of Rome, that will take place *on 26 and 27
January 2023*.
Social media platforms provide a significant channel for people to connect,
share opinions, spread and process information. How we interact with each
other leads to large-scale phenomena, and recently financial markets have
been repeatedly influenced by viral social media trends. These online
financial coordinated operations receive massive attention from the media,
financial stakeholders, and the academic community.
In this workshop, you will explore the key ingredients leading the stock to
go viral and how we can model and early detect online coordination that has
a social and practical impact.
*The call for abstract is open until December 15, 2022.*

Dear All,
I'm writing to inform you that the 15th International Neural Coding Workshop will take place in Piriápolis, Uruguay, from the 27th February to the 4th March
http://neuralcoding.net/nc2023/index.html
As in the tradition of previous NC workshops, this will be a single track multi-disciplinary event bringing together experimental and computational neuroscientists. Attendees of the workshop should thus be prepared to cross the borders of their own disciplines. More detailed information can be found on the workshop website http://neuralcoding.net/nc2023/index.html
The abstract submission is now open and will close on the 18th December, which is also when the early registration closes.
PhD students and postdoc can apply for travel awards by submitting their application by the 20th December.
► Find out about the workshop for more details and register: http://neuralcoding.net<http://neuralcoding.net/>
► You can also directly head to the submission page:
