Seminar by J. Teichmann in Verona
by Alessandro Gnoatto 14 Apr '22

14 Apr '22

Prof. Josef Teichmann (ETH Zürich) will give a talk at the Department of Economics – University of Verona. Date: 20/04/2022 @ 12:00 (Rome Time) Title: Signature SDEs from an affine and polynomial perspective Affine or polynomial processes are fascinating classes of models due to the so-called affine transform formulae or moment formulae, respectively. We first show through a linearization procedure that generic classes of diffusion models can be obtained as projections of infinite dimensional affine processes (which actually coincide with polynomial processes). Affine and polynomial technology next allows to derive so far unknown formulae for characteristic functions and moments of involved process functionals. Third a dynamic viewpoint on those formulae (combined with machine learning approaches) leads to efficient numerical evaluations.

Past smoothed overnight market returns strongly negatively forecast subsequent close-to-close returns (quarterly R2 of over 14%), primarily through intraday mean reversion. In contrast, past smoothed intraday market returns strongly positively forecast subsequent overnight returns; this partially-offsetting effect explains PE's relatively poor forecasting ability (R2 only 3%). Our decomposition also resurrects the conditional CAPM: If we allow market betas to vary with past smoothed overnight returns, the unconditional alpha of the four Fama-French non-market factors decreases by 91%. We interpret these return patterns through a clientele perspective. First, individual investor expectations and consumption growth strongly positively forecast overnight market returns; intermediary risk tolerance and household equity share strongly negatively forecast intraday market returns. Second, aggregate discount-rate news associated with revisions in future expected overnight (intraday) returns is positively (negatively) correlated with aggregate cash-flow news. Finally, while the Tech boom and Covid crash/rebound were primarily driven by overnight returns, the Global Financial Crisis was mostly an intraday phenomenon. <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *To attend in presence, register here* <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/AeJ-WyYc_gvUq2mT72rqiHtFvTQ6jPrbiV…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *To attend online, join Zoom Meeting* <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/vQ-81gGUFwr92prMcO1wAos1prgrpZtXYC…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *April 20, 2022 | 12:00 - 13:15* *Strategic Leadership in Corporate Social Responsibility* *Rui Albuquerque (Carrol School of Management, Boston College)* <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *Abstract.* We propose a strategic theory of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Shareholder maximizers commit to a mission statement that extends beyond firm value maximization. This commitment leads firms (either product market competitors or complementors along the value chain) to change their actions in ways that ultimately favor shareholders. We thus provide a formal analysis of the “doing well by doing good” adage. We also provide conditions such that the mission statement game has the nature of a pure coordination game. Our framework thus provides a natural theory of firm leadership in a CSR context: by selecting a CSR mission statement, a first mover effectively leads the industry to a Pareto optimal equilibrium. <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *To attend in person, register here* <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/sWQz91Ig64g-hKPI0qtXuwSrmqF9ks4uXO…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *To attend online, join Zoom Meeting* <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/a5FFG16ZzGA4wKp6TEcOSC5UJL-ct_fbpI…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/w9EAxMXTRoVQWw8rge58Ur5Q9h1azrMGGu…> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/ryYmaMlVZUN48CzZ1ArQlrckik3y2zJD7c…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> FONDAZIONE COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO Piazza Arbarello 8 - 10122 Torino, Italy phone: +390116705000 segreteria(a)carloalberto.org - www.carloalberto.org [image: Facebook] <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/wh_Khsc6qoONJjjfPj_n-Lb6YoAirMTUXv…> [image: Twitter] <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/UnCsCKFdXGIuCX9lfeGpe6ph-BAbL3z-0f…> [image: LinkedIn] <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/tB9Ns4ARnwiSodkGn2ubnmU1M9x11LPrz4…> [image: Instagram] <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/QoIO7jUPYXlgktVaTw_Tvc2g1WfpgXZgB4…> [image: Youtube] <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/vBC6AeuPt0mow4OYvvHSCpa0bGiKvCbuof…> <#m_-325173197699348024_m_-4631880425216739772_> *INFORMATION UNDER THE NEW GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)* Your personal information has been gathered for the exclusive purpose of informing you about the Collegio's initiatives, considering our and your legitimate interest or your consent.

seminar: "Point process learning", Ottmar Cronie, 19 April
by Umberto Picchini 14 Apr '22

14 Apr '22

You are welcome to the next Statistics seminar at Dept of Mathematical Sciences at Chalmers and Göteborg University. On Tuesday April 19, Ottmar Cronie <https://www.chalmers.se/en/staff/Pages/ottmar.aspx> will talk of: ///"Point process learning" / * * *About the speaker: *Ottmar Cronie <https://www.chalmers.se/en/staff/Pages/ottmar.aspx> is associate professor at Chalmers and University of Göteborg. His research is primarily in spatial and spatio-temporal statistics as well as statistical learning. The emphasis is on point processes. The applied part of his research focuses mainly on epidemiology where the main focus at the moment is research on covid-19 and mosquito-borne diseases. // //* * *Abstract:* Point processes are random sets which generalise the classical notion of a random (iid) sample by allowing i) the sample size to be random and/or ii) the sample points to be dependent. Therefore, point process have become ubiquitous in the modeling of spatial and/or temporal event data, e.g. earthquakes and disease cases. In this talk, we present the first statistical learning framework for general point processes, which is based on a subtle combination of two new concepts: prediction errors and cross-validation for point processes. The general idea is to split a point process in two, through thinning, and estimate parameters by predicting one part using the other. By repeating this procedure, we implicitly induce a conditional repeated sampling scheme. The proposed approach allows us to introduce a variety of loss functions not only suitable for standard spatial statistical problems but for general estimation settings, without imposing the iid assumptions. Having discussed different properties of this new approach, we illustrate how it may be applied in different spatial statistical settings and, numerically, we show in (at least) one of these settings that it outperforms the state of the art.* * *Feel free to spread this announcement in your network.* * * *Where*: room MVL14 orhttps://chalmers.zoom.us/j/64214516762 Password: 355673 ** **** *When*: Tuesday 19 April at 14.30-15.30*(Swedish time, UTC+2)*. ** -- _________________________________________________________ Umberto Picchini, Associate Professor, PhD, Docent https://umbertopicchini.github.io/ , twitter: @uPicchini

de Finetti Risk seminar: Walter Schachermayer

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the "B. de Finetti Risk Seminars, Milano Lectures on the Mathematical Theory of Economics and Finance”, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following Lecture which will take place on Thursday, May 5, 2022 at 17.30 (see all details below). *Walter Schachermayer* Universität Wien *Title:* Martingale Transport, De March-Touzi paving, and stretched Brownian motion in ℝd *Abstract:* In classical optimal transport, the contributions of Benamou–Brenier and Mc-Cann regarding the time-dependent version of the problem are cornerstones of the field and form the basis for a variety of applications in other mathematical areas. For µ,ν probability measures on ℝd, increasing in convex order, stretched Brownian motion [1] provides an analogue for the martingale version of this problem. In dimension d=1 it was shown in [2] that any martingale transport decomposes into at most countably many invariant intervals and that this decomposition is universal. Extensions of this result to d≥2 were studied in [4], [5], [3].

Master Mathématiques et Apprentissage Statistique all'Università di Versailles
by Cecilia Mancini 09 Apr '22

09 Apr '22

Inoltro questa informazione su un nuovo Master che partirà il prossimo Settembre all’Université Versailles Saint Quentin<http://www.uvsq.fr/>. A chi fosse interessato posso mandare i flyers sotto menzionati Saluti, Cecilia Da: Ester Mariucci <ester.mariucci(a)uvsq.fr> stiamo aprendo un nuovo Master (M1+M2) a Versailles. Si chiama Mathématiques et Apprentissage Statistique, Math&AS. Fa parte della Graduate School dell’Università Paris-Saclay ed é un “Master Recherche ouvert à l’entreprise”. Per essere chiari : é teorico ma non tanto quanto i master di Orsay, permette di andare subito a lavorare ma non é un master in alternance. Durante l’M1 i corsi sono teorici - ma comunque globalmente più di statistica applicata che matematica - (statistica matematica, machine Learning, modelli lineari, ottimizzazione, analisi dei dati, etc…) e c’é un po’ di informatica. Il secondo anno ci saranno dei corsi fatti da data scientists, e poi vari corsi avanzati sempre di machine learning e statistica. L’insegnamento é in francese, ci sono 2 stages di sei mesi ciascuno, uno per anno (quindi bisogna davvero parlare bene francese). Dato che la formazione debutta a Settembre cerco di diffondere la notizia il più possibile…non si sa mai che tu conosca studenti francofoni (o che se la cavano sufficientemente bene) potenzialmente interessati! Ti allego i flyers che abbiamo fatto per l’UVSQ e per Saclay con le informazioni sui programmi. Ci sono borse (anche per stranieri) : https://www.universite-paris-saclay.fr/admission/bourses-et-aides-financier…; https://www.fondation-hadamard.fr/fr/master-bourses-de-master/master-401-ap… e le candidature per iscriversi al master sono tra il 15 marzo e il 15 maggio. Sto ancora aspettando che il sito ufficiale di Saclay sia visibile, qui ci sono alcune informazioni : http://www.departement.math.uvsq.fr/masterMathAS Un caro saluto, Ester

seminar: "Random structures and patterns in spatio-temporal data: probabilistic modelling and statistical inference", Radu Stoica, 12 April
by Umberto Picchini 09 Apr '22

09 Apr '22

You are welcome to the next Statistics seminar at Dept of Mathematical Sciences at Chalmers and Göteborg University, Sweden. On Tuesday April 12, Radu Stoica <https://sites.google.com/site/radustefanstoica/> will talk of: ///"Random structures and patterns in spatio-temporal data: probabilistic modelling and statistical inference"/ / / //*About the speaker: *Radu Stoica <https://sites.google.com/site/radustefanstoica/> is professor at Université de Lorraine, France. He is interested in probabilistic modeling and statistical inference for the analysis of spatio-temporal data // //* * *Abstract:* The useful information carried by spatio-temporal data is often outlined by geometric structures and patterns. Filaments or clusters induced by galaxy positions in our Universe are such an example. Two situations are to be considered. First, the pattern of interest is hidden in the data set, hence the pattern should be detected. Second, the structure to be studied is observed, so relevant characterization of it should be done. Probabilistic modelling is one of the approaches that allows to furnish answers to these questions. This is done by developing unitary methodologies embracing simultaneously three directions: modelling, simulation and inference. This talk presents the use of marked point processes applied to the detection and to the characterization of such structures. Practical examples are also shown.* * *Feel free to spread this announcement in your network.* * * *Where*: room MVL14 or https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/64160866575 Password: 024139 ** **** *When*: Tuesday 12 April at 14.30-15.30*(Stockholm time)*. ** -- _________________________________________________________ Umberto Picchini, Associate Professor, PhD, Docent https://umbertopicchini.github.io/ , twitter: @uPicchini

(PMS)^2 in person and online talk: Daria Ghilli - April 11 at 14.00
by Carlo Orrieri 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Dear colleagues, We are happy to announce the following hybrid - that is, in person with online streaming - talk: Speaker: Daria Ghilli (Università di Pavia) Title: A mean field game model in economics with spatial interactions in the human capital Abstract: We study an economic model where each agent chooses its position in space and its level of human capital maximizing its own utility and interacts with the other agents through the human capital. The main peculiarity of the model we consider consists in the presence of a spatial interaction term in the dynamic of the human capital, i.e. spatial spillovers on the accumulation of human capital and in the utility, i.e. spatial spillovers on the consumption. We adopt a Mean Field Game (MFG) approach and study a system of two partial differential equations, the MFG system, which arises as the continuum macroscopic description of the discrete multi-agents system emerging, heuristically, as the limit as the number of agents tends to infinity. The MFG system we study is expected to approximate Nash equilibria for the discrete multi-agents system when the number of players tends to infinity. This is a joint work with C. Ricci (Pisa) and G. Zanco (LUISS). Date and time: Monday April 11, 14:00-15:00 (Rome time zone) Place: Aula Beltrami, dipartimento di matematica dell’università di Pavia, via Ferrata 5, Pavia. Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83190110958?pwd=QW5tOC9tcGgyTDNtaUJvenIrdGNZQT09 <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83190110958?pwd=QW5tOC9tcGgyTDNtaUJvenIrdGNZQT09> ID riunione: 831 9011 0958 Passcode: 384911 This talk is part of the (PMS)^2: Pavia-Milano Seminar series on Probability and Mathematical Statistics organized jointly by the universities Milano-Bicocca, Pavia, Milano-Politecnico and Milano-Statale. Participation is free and welcome! Best regards The organizers (Mario Maurelli, Carlo Orrieri, Maurizia Rossi, Margherita Zanella)

04 Apr '22

Dear Colleagues, we would like to invite you to the following seminar by Ruojun Huang (Scuola Normale Superiore) to be held Wednesday (April 6th) at Dipartimento di Matematica in Pisa and online via Google Meets. The organizers, A. Agazzi and F. Grotto -------------------------------------------- Location: Sala Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, Pisa Google Meet Link: https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg Time: April 6th, 2022, 14:00 CET Speaker: Ruojun Huang (Scuola Normale Superiore) Title: Coagulation under environmental noise Abstract: Environmental noise in a continuum interacting particle system is a space-dependent noise acting on all particles simultaneously. We prove that a system of locally interacting diffusions carrying discrete masses, subject to an environmental noise and undergoing mass coagulation, converges to a system of Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDEs) with Smoluchowski-type nonlinearity. It partially extends a result of Hammond-Rezakhanlou (2007) who considered the PDE case, with our motivation coming from trying to understand the effect of turbulence on rain formations. Based on a joint work with Franco Flandoli.
