Gruppo di studio: Dottorato in Probabilità e Statistica e Industria
by Enrico Scalas 01 Apr '25

01 Apr '25

Gruppo di studio: Dottorato in Probabilità e Statistica e Industria (“PhD Students in Probability and Statistics meet Companies”) Il gruppo UMI-PRISMA, il Dipartimento di Scienze Matematiche "G.L. Lagrange” del Politecnico di Torino e il Dipartimento di Matematica “G. Peano” dell’Università di Torino organizzano a Torino una tre giorni dal 16 al 18 settembre 2025 usando il formato ridotto dello "Study Group Mathematics with Industry": il mattino del 16 settembre, le aziende partecipanti presentano i problemi di loro interesse. Successivamente si formano gruppi di dottorandi supportati da tutor accademici, che lavorano su tali problemi e le soluzioni proposte sono discusse nel pomeriggio del 18 settembre. Al momento hanno già accettato di partecipare le seguenti società: Novartis (https://www.novartis.com/it-it/) ToolsGroup (https://www.toolsgroup.com/) La partecipazione al gruppo di studio è gratuita per dottorandi e dottorande che stanno svolgendo una tesi di probabilità e/o statistica matematica. Inoltre sarà disponibile un piccolo supporto finanziario su richiesta. Il supporto sarà erogato con un criterio di priorità per ordine di arrivo delle richieste. Infine, sarà rilasciato un certificato di partecipazione. In questa fase chiediamo una dichiarazione di interesse a partecipare. La si può inviare a: laura.sacerdote(a)unito.it prima possibile e comunque entro il 30 maggio 2025. Il comitato organizzatore: Gianluca Guadagni, Franco Pellerey, Laura Lea Sacerdote, Enrico Scalas, Serena Spina, Barbara Trivellato e Cristina Zucca

Seminar Alexandra Holzinger - Luiss
by Marta Leocata 01 Apr '25

01 Apr '25

Dear all, The Department of Economics and Finance at Luiss University in Rome (https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it <https://economiaefinanza.luiss.it/>) is pleased to announce the following seminar: Speaker: Alexandra Holzinger, Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford Title: Fluctuations around the mean-field limit for attractive Riesz interaction kernels in the moderate regime When: April 3, 14:30 Where: Viale Romania, 32 00197 Rome Meeting room: 405 Abstract: In this talk I will give a short introduction to moderately interacting particle systems and the general notion of fluctuations around the mean-field limit. We will see how a central limit theorem can be shown for moderately interacting particles on the whole space for certain types of interaction potentials. The interaction potential approximates singular attractive potentials of sub-Coulomb type and we can show that the fluctuations become asymptotically Gaussians. The methodology is inspired by the classical work of Oelschläger in the 1980s on fluctuations for the porous-medium equation. To allow for attractive potentials we use a new approach of quantitative mean-field convergence in probability in order to include aggregation effects. Should you be interested, please kindly send me an e-mail. Best wishes, Marta Leocata

Dear Colleagues, We are glad to announce the summer school Mathematical methods for high-dimensional data <https://sites.google.com/view/math-high-dimensional-data/home>, which will take place on September 8-12, 2025, at the Mathematics Department of Sapienza University of Rome. Lecturers of the school are Jean Barbier (International Centre for Theoretical Physics) Marylou Gabrié (École Normale Supérieure) Alessandro Ingrosso (Radboud University) Silvia Villa (University of Genova) The school will also include poster sessions for PhD students and early postdocs. To register, please complete the form available on the website (here the link <https://sites.google.com/view/math-high-dimensional-data/registration?authu…>). Participation is free, but registration is mandatory. The school will launch the Eccellenza Scientific Program dedicated to Data Science, running through January 2026. This program features workshops, doctoral courses, and seminar series, focusing on the mathematical methods underpinning data science. Participants will engage with cutting-edge methodologies in statistical physics, statistical inference, optimization, and control, alongside advanced techniques in numerical simulations and scientific computing for machine learning. By integrating these disciplines, the program provides an overview of rigorous foundations and tools for tackling real-world challenges through data-driven approaches. More about the program will be found on this page <https://sites.google.com/view/math-high-dimensional-data/home>. For additional information, do not hesitate to contact us.
