An afternoon on the spectral theory of pseudo-differential operators
by Enrico Scalas 08 Apr '24

08 Apr '24

Dear Colleagues, On 9 april 2024 starting from 14:00 in room 34, 4th floor of the Department of Statistical Sciences, Sapienza University of Rome, (building CU002), two seminars on non-local operators will take place. Here is the program. Please feel free to inform interested people. Best regards, Enrico Scalas -- 14:00 - 15:00 Atsuhide Ishida (Tokyo University of Science, Tokyo, Japan) Mourre inequality for non-local Schrödinger operators We consider the Mourre inequality for the following self-adjoint operator $H=\Psi(-\Delta/2)+V$ acting on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$, where $\Psi: [0,\infty)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is an increasing function, $\Delta$ is the Laplacian and $V: \mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is an interaction potential. Mourre inequality immediately yields the discreteness and finite multiplicity of the eigenvalues. Moreover, the Mourre inequality together with the limiting absorption principle can be used to show absence of the singular continuous spectrum. In addition, Mourre inequality is also used for the proof of the minimal velocity estimate that plays an important role in scattering theory. In this talk, we report that Mourre inequality holds under a general $\Psi$ and $V$ by choosing the conjugate operator $A=(p \cdot x + x \cdot p)/2$ with $p= - i \nabla$, and that the discreteness and finite multiplicity of the eigenvalues hold. This talk is a joint work with J. Lőrinczi (Alfred Rényi Institute) and I. Sasaki (Shinshu University). 15:00 - 15:30 Coffee break 15:30 - 16:30 József Lőrinczi (Alfred Rényi Institute, Budapest, Hungary) Embedded eigenvalues for a class of non-local Schrödinger operators Generally, the spectrum of a non-local Schrödinger operator may be rather intricate, even when they are self-adjoint operators. In this talk I plan to discuss some explicit cases when positive or zero eigenvalues occur, and also address the problem more generally, aiming to describe potentials which can give rise to zero eigenvalues for massive or massless (fractional) relativistic Schrodinger operators. If time permits, I intend to explain how random processes with jumps can be used to analyse such properties. 16:30 - 18:00 Discussion time

Seminar: Laura D'Angelo April 09, 2024, Ca' Foscari University of Venice
by Carlo Gaetan 28 Mar '24

28 Mar '24

Dear all, we are glad to announce the following hybrid seminar *April 09, 2024, 12:15 PM* *Where*: Aula Delta 2C- edificio Delta (Campus Scientifico), Via Torino, 155 Mestre (Venice, Italy) Zoom: https://unive.zoom.us/j/85153268624?pwd=MzBhdlA2M1B2dThJQ2Y5T0EwUE5PZz09 *Speaker*: Laura D'Angelo, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca (Italy) *Title*: Analyzing the activation patterns and heterogeneity of the neuronal response via Bayesian mixture models *Abstract:* The modern technique of calcium imaging is revolutionizing the understanding of the nervous system, thanks to its ability to image the activity of individual neurons over time in freely moving animals. This technology has led to remarkable insights into how neurons process and encode information, both individually and collectively. In this talk, we examine how Bayesian mixture models can help uncover the complex functioning of neurons in different experimental studies. First, we discuss a nested mixture model to analyze how the activity of an individual cell is affected by visual stimuli that vary over time. Then, we move to a multivariate model to identify groups of co-activating neurons, where the information on the anatomical proximity is introduced to inform the clustering procedure. At the basis of both models is a simple but effective state-space formulation that describes the calcium dynamic and relates it to the latent firing events. Through these examples, we show how the Bayesian nonparametric framework is ideal for flexibly modeling the unobserved neuronal activity, identifying patterns of activity, borrowing information across experimental conditions, and including additional knowledge.

Postdoc on the mathematics of supply chain
by Marco Scarsini 27 Mar '24

27 Mar '24

We have a postdoc position at Luiss University on the mathematics of supply chain. A supply chain is modeled as a network whose vertices are firms and whose edges represent their interactions. The network evolves dynamically, and may be affected by sudden disruptions. Many of the existing supply-chain models are static and, when dealing with disruptions, compare pre- and post-shock equilibria. In real life, the effects of disruption take time to spread across the network. Understanding this temporal element is fundamental for taking mitigating actions. The main goal of this project is to study dynamic models of supply-chain disruption. The formal analysis of this phenomenon will use tools from network theory, probability theory, game theory, operations management, optimization, dynamical systems, machine learning, data science. We are looking for a candidate who has a strong expertise in at least one of the above fields. Title of the project: A dynamic analysis of supply-chain networks and their disruption Length of the position: 36 months Gross annual salary: € 36.480,57 Application deadline: 2024/05/03, 14:00 Central European Summer Time (CEST) The call for this postdoc can be found here: https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it/uploads/2024/03/Bando-Assegno-Prof.-Scars… The candidates must submit their application online here: https://cloudserverjsa.luiss.it/LGCAssegni/index.zul?CDS=AS4239 ******************************************************* Marco Scarsini Dipartimento di Economia e Finanza Luiss University Viale Romania 32 00197 Roma, ITALY
