SPASS Seminars: Giuseppe Cannizzaro and Giacomo di Gesù
by Francesco Grotto 13 Sep '23

13 Sep '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following (double) SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi (abstracts below): *Weak coupling scaling of critical SPDEs* by *Giuseppe Cannizzaro *(University of Warwick) *Sharp asymptotics for the Allen-Cahn equation in the limit of small noise and large volume* by* Giacomo di Gesù* (La Sapienza) The seminars will take place on *TUE, 19.9.2023* respectively at *14:00 CET and 15:00 CET *in Aula Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, University of Pisa and streamed online at the link below. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass&source…> -------------------------------------------- *Weak coupling scaling of critical SPDEs* Abstract: The study of stochastic PDEs has known tremendous advances in recent years and, thanks to Hairer's theory of regularity structures and Gubinelli and Perkowski's paracontrolled approach, (local) existence and uniqueness of solutions of subcritical SPDEs is by now well-understood. The goal of this talk is to move beyond the aforementioned theories and present novel tools to derive the scaling limit (in the so-called weak coupling scaling) for some stationary SPDEs at the critical dimension. Our techniques are inspired by the resolvent method developed by Landim, Olla, Yau, Varadhan, and many others, in the context of particle systems in the supercritical dimension and might be well-suited to study a much wider class of statistical mechanics models at criticality. *Sharp asymptotics for the Allen-Cahn equation in the limit of small noise and large volume* Abstract: We consider the Allen-Cahn equation on a finite interval perturbed by space-time white noise. Keeping the size of the spatial domain fixed, the dynamics becomes metastable in the limit of vanishing noise. I will review some sharp metastability estimates in this regime and discuss how the invariant measure and long-time behavior is affected if one allows the system size to grow while the noise vanishes (joint work with L. Bertini and P. Buttà).

AVVISO DI SEMINARIO

UNIVERSITA' DI SALERNO Dipartimento di Matematica *AVVISO** DI SEMINARIO* La Prof.ssa *Giulia DI NUNNO* (University of Oslo, Department of Mathematics) mercoledì 13 settembre, alle ore 13:00, presso la Sala Riunioni dell'Edificio F2 (piano 1, stanza 36), terrà un seminario dal titolo: *Sandwich volatility modelling and hedging* Gli interessati sono cordialmente invitati a partecipare, *Antonio Di Crescenzo* *Barbara Martinucci* *Alessandra Meoli**Serena Spina* Link su Teams: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_OTcwY2Q1ZDktYmIyMS00… *Abstract* Sandwiched Volterra Volatility (SVV) models are a class of models able to capture both the long memory and the rough aspects of volatility. We present the structure and the properties. We then move to consider hedging and consider the explicit computation of quadratic hedging strategies. the theoretical solution is well-known in terms of the non-anticipating derivative for all square integrable claims, the fact that these models are typically non-Markovian provides a concrete difficulty in the direct computation of conditional expectations at the core of the explicit hedging strategy. To overcome this difficulty, we propose a Markovian approximation of the model which stems from an adequate approximation of the kernel in the Volterra noise. We show some numerical simulations performed with different methods.

A ‘replicability crisis’ has been claimed in the last decades, denouncing that a large part of published research findings, especially in applied sciences, such as psychology or medicine failed to be confirmed by subsequent studies. Difficulties in moving from empirical evidence and data analysis to a scientific result push towards the need to clarify various aspects, such as rigorous definitions, the possible tools for understanding and communicating the uncertainty inherent in most scientific conclusions, the definition of non-questionable research practices.

SPASS Seminars: Gigliola Staffilani and Vanessa Jacquier

06 Sep '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following (double) SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi (abstracts below): Some recent developments in wave turbulence theory by *Gigliola Staffilani* (MIT) Homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation in the three-state Blume-Capel model by* Vanessa Jacquier* (University of Utrecht) The seminars will take place on *TUE, 12.9.2023* respectively at *14:00 CET and 15:00 CET *in Aula Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, University of Pisa and streamed online at the link below. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass&source…> -------------------------------------------- Some recent developments in wave turbulence theory Abstract: In this talk I will present two different approaches in the study of wave turbulence theory. The first, introduced by Bourgain, consists in analyzing the long time behavior of high Sobolev norms for the defocusing, cubic NLS equation on 2D tori (periodic solutions). In this context I will emphasize how the rationality or irrationality of the torus affects the analysis. The second approach deals with the rigorous derivation of the 3-wave kinetic equation from a weakly nonlinear multidimensional KdV type equation. Homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation in the three-state Blume-Capel model Abstract: We study the metastable behavior of the stochastic Blume–Capel model evolving according to the Glauber dynamics with zero boundary conditions. We will show that, due to the three–state character of the Blume–Capel model, the metastability scenario proven for periodic boundary conditions changes deeply when different boundary conditions are considered. The Hamiltonian of the Blume–Capel model depends on the magnetic field h and the chemical potential λ. We study the heuristic in the whole region λ,h > 0, where the chemical potential term equally favors minus and plus spins with respect to zeroes and the magnetic field favors pluses and disadvantages minuses with respect to the zeroes, and we compare our results with the Blume-Capel model with periodic boundary conditions. Then, we analyze in detail the region λ>h > 0. In this region, we identify the unique metastable state -1, we compute the energy barrier from -1 to the stable state +1, and we find an estimate for the asymptotic behavior of the transition time from the metastable to the stable state as β->∞, where β is the inverse of the temperature.
