School "Statistical Mechanics, Nonequilibrium Processes and Probability", Feb 17-28 2025
by Lorenzo Taggi 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Dear Colleagues, We are glad to announce that the winter school Statistical Mechanics, Nonequilibrium Processes and Probability will take place on February 17-28, 2025 in Rome at the Mathematics Department of Sapienza University. The school will inaugurate the scientific Eccellenza program at Sapienza, titled Statistical Mechanics and Nonequilibrium Processes, which will end in June 2025 and will include workshops, doctoral courses and seminar series. The school and the scientific period will be devoted to several topics including kinetic theory and probability, random growth models, percolation, probabilistic models for neural networks, quantum-mechanical transport, non-dissipative transport in topological materials, large scale limits. The common substrate is the investigation of equilibrium and nonequilibrium phenomena and of statistical physics models, with rigorous mathematical methods. Our goal is to expand knowledge in these areas, by presenting current research directions at an introductory level and aimed at students and young researchers, and by fostering new lines of collaborative research. Lecturers of the February school: Week 1 (17-21 Feb) - Kazuo Aoki (National Cheng Kung University & Kyoto University) - Eric Carlen (Rutgers University) - Alessia Nota (University of L'Aquila) - Benjamin Schlein (University of Zurich) Week 2 (24-28 Feb) - Paul Dario (University of Paris-Est Créteil) - Sabine Jansen (Ludwig Maximilian University) - Eva Löcherbach (University of Paris 1) - Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) The school will include short talk sessions for early postdocs and PhD students. Financial support will be available to a limited number of young participants. Requests for financial support will open in the fall. The school is free but registration will be mandatory. In a future announcement we will provide the link for registering to the first and/or the second week. For any information do not hesitate to contact us.

talk Prof. Felix-Benedikt Liebrich - 10 September
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 04 Sep '24

04 Sep '24

Dear all, you are all invited to participate to the following seminar on *Tuesday 10th of September 2024 at 16:30* in Aula Seminari Demografica 2062 at University of Milano Bicocca (via degli Arcimboldi 8, Milano - building U7, 2nd floor): *Speaker: *Felix-Benedikt Liebrich (Univ. of Amsterdam) *Title:* The (?) reference measure *Abstract:* A functional on random variables is law invariant with respect to a reference probability (or probabilistically sophisticated) if its value only depends on the distribution of its argument under that measure. The class of such functionals is not only vast, but of integral importance for financial, actuarial, and economic applications. In this talk, we take a concrete functional as given and ask (i) if there can be more than one such reference probability, and (ii) how one can infer the reference probability from the functional. This stance is in contrast to wide parts of the literature that treat the reference probability as given. Nevertheless, as I will show at the beginning of my talk, it is in line with the investigation of probabilistically sophisticated preferences and arises as a natural consequence of the Marinacci-Svistula Uniqueness Theorem. Concerning question (i), I demonstrate that uniqueness holds for a wide class of functionals unless they are constant or depend only on the essential supremum and essential infimum of the argument. Applications to monetary and return risk measures will be given. Concerning the calibration question (ii), I show how to infer the reference measure as a related supremum or infimum in the space of bounded charges. While this approach is generally versatile, it fails in the important case of the Value-at-Risk. Here, a suitable alternative is presented. Best wishes, Emanuela ****************************************** Emanuela Rosazza Gianin Dipartimento di Statistica e Metodi Quantitativi Università di Milano-Bicocca Edificio U7 – 4° Piano Via Bicocca degli Arcimboldi, 8 20126 Milano Tel. 02 64483208 e-mail: emanuela.rosazza1(a)unimib.it ******************************************
