Seminar: Adriano Barra at Tor Vergata 02.11
by Michele Salvi 22 Mar '24

22 Mar '24

Dear all, On Thursday, November 2nd, at 15h00 in Aula Dal Passo of Tor Vergata Math Department, RoMaDS (https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~rds/about.php) will host Adriano Barra (Università del Salento) with the seminar "A walk in the statistical mechanics of neural networks” Abstract: Purpose of this talk is twofold: in the first part, I will provide a statistical mechanical picture of shallow networks proving how learning in biological neural networks (e.g. in the Hopfield model) and standard machine learning via gradient descent (e.g. on the Boltzmann machine) ultimately convey the same information after training. This diminishes the gap in our understanding between biological and artificial information processing networks. In the second part of the talk, focusing on a toy model for the sake of simplicity, I will show how recent mathematical techniques, heavily based on Guerra's interpolation, are suitable to describe the emergent properties of this kind of networks. We encourage in-person partecipation. Should you be unable to come, here is the link to the Teams streaming: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3arfsL73KX-fw86y1YnXq2nk5VnZFw… <https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19:rfsL73KX-fw86y1YnXq2nk5VnZFwPU…> The seminar is part of the Excellence Project MatMod@TOV.

Seminar: Marco Carfagnini at Tor Vergata 25.09
by Michele Salvi 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Dear all, We are happy to announce that on Monday, September 25th, at 15h00 in Aula Dal Passo of Tor Vergata Math Department, RoMaDS (https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~rds/about.php) will host Marco Carfagnini (University of California San Diego) with the seminar "Spectral gaps via small deviations” Abstract: In this talk we will discuss spectral gaps of second order differential operators and their connection to limit laws such as small deviations and Chung’s laws of the iterated logarithm. The main focus is on hypoelliptic diffusions such as the Kolmogorov diffusion and horizontal Brownian motions on Carnot groups. If time permits, we will discuss spectral properties and existence of spectral gaps on general Dirichlet metric measure spaces.This talk is based on joint works with Maria (Masha) Gordina and Alexander (Sasha) Teplyaev. We encourage in-person partecipation.

1 Year Post-Doc position in Verona
by Alessandro Gnoatto 23 Dec '23

23 Dec '23

1 Year Post-Doc position in Verona I am looking for a post-doc to join my group. The topic of the research project is "Machine learning and stochastic control for financial risk management” The aim of this project is to study new methods, models, and numerical techniques for the treatment of financial risk management problems, in particular counterparty credit risk (xVA) or the pricing of financial and insurance claims. Many problems in finance involve the minimization of a cost functional subject to controlled stochastic state variables. Controls or related quantities in high dimension can be conveniently approximated by means of artificial neural networks. The aim of the project is to study control problems under general dynamics together with the development of new models for the evolution of risk factors, with a special focus on interest rates. The candidate should have a solid background in probability, stochastic calculus and computational finance. Experience with the Java and/or Python programming languages and Machine Learning frameworks such as Tensorflow, Deep Java Library or Deeplearning4J is a plus. Candidates will be evaluated based on their scientific quality and their potential in developing research. There are no teaching obligations and knowledge of Italian is not required. The deadline for applications is the 11 January 2024 (h. 13.00). The link to the call is here https://www.univr.it/en/job-vacancies/assegnisti-di-ricerca/assegni-di-rice…'ECONOMIAEDELLESCIENZEATTUARIALIEFINANZIARIE,perl%E2%80%99attuazionedelprogrammadiricerca%E2%80%9CControllostocasticoemachinelearningperlagestionedeirischifinanziari%E2%80%9DRIBA2022conCUPB33C22002230005 The call is in Italian.

Fwd: talk Prof. Giulia Di Nunno
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 22 Dec '23

22 Dec '23

Dear all, you are all invited to participate to the following seminar on *Wednesday 10th of January 2023 at 16:00* in Aula Seminari Demografica 2062 at University of Milano Bicocca (via degli Arcimboldi 8, Milano - building U7, 2nd floor): Speaker: *Giulia Di Nunno* (University of Oslo) Titolo: *Sandwiched Volterra volatility models, power law and option pricing* Abstract: We consider a financial market with stochastic volatility driven by an arbitrary Hölder continuous Gaussian Volterra process. The distinguishing feature of the model is the form of the volatility equation which ensures the solution to be “sandwiched” between two arbitrary functions chosen in advance. Hence the name Sandwiched Volterra Volatility (SVV) model. Targeting option pricing, we discuss the structure of local martingale measures in this market and we develop an algorithm of pricing options with discontinuous payoffs. Our tools rely on the study of Malliavin calculus, indeed the Malliavin differentiability of the equations and prices is studied. With these, we can also study the power law property of the SVV model. Best wishes, Emanuela ****************************************** Emanuela Rosazza Gianin Dipartimento di Statistica e Metodi Quantitativi Università di Milano-Bicocca Tel. 02 64483208 e-mail: emanuela.rosazza1(a)unimib.it ******************************************
