Seminario di Nikolay Barashkov, martedì 18 aprile in Sapienza
by Giacomo Di Gesu 13 Apr '23

13 Apr '23

Segnalo il seguente seminario: *Martedì 18 Aprile, ore 14:00* Sala di Consiglio, Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma *Speaker:* Nikolay Barashkov, University of Helsinki *Title:* Gluing for $\phi^4_3$ on cylinders *Abstract:* The $\phi^4_3$ model is a 3-dimensional non-Gaussian Euclidean QFT. Showing existence of such a measure was one of the highlights of the constructive QFT programme in the '70s. In this talk I will describe joint work with Trishen Gunaratnam in analysing how $\phi^4_3$ models glue together on cylinders.

SPASS Seminar: Vittoria Silvestri
by Francesco Grotto 11 Apr '23

11 Apr '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: *Planar aggregation with subcritical fluctuations and the Hastings-Levitov models* Vittoria Silvestri (Università di Roma 1 La Sapienza) The seminar will take place on TUE, 18.4.2023 at 14:00 CET in Sala Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, 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 -------------------------------------------- *Abstract: **The ALE (Aggregate Loewner Evolution) models describe growing random clusters on the complex plane, built by iterated composition of random conformal maps. A striking feature of these models is that they can be used to define natural off-lattice analogues of several fundamental discrete models, such as Eden or Diffusion Limited Aggregation, by tuning the correlation between the defining maps appropriately. In this talk I will discuss shape theorems and fluctuations of ALE clusters, which include Hastings-Levitov clusters as particular cases, in the subcritical regime. Based on joint work with James Norris and Amanda Turner.*

Reminder - De Finetti Risk Seminar - April 12, 2023
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 11 Apr '23

11 Apr '23

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the "B. de Finetti Risk Seminars, Milano Lectures on the Mathematical Theory of Economics and Finance”, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following Lecture: Martin Schweizer ETH Zurich Title: Dynamic programming for mean-variance portfolio selection Abstract: We present a dynamic programming approach to solving the mean-variance portfolio selection problem in finite discrete time. This bypasses issues of time-inconsistency and hence does not need the introduction of an equilibrium or game-theoretic approach. The talk is based on joint work with Zhouyi Tan. LOCATION: The seminar will be held on *April 12, *2023 at *18.00,* Aula Di Rappresentanza, Dipart. Matematica, Università di Milano, Via Saldini 50, Milano. Scientific Committee Prof. Simone Cerreia-Voglio (Univ. Bocconi) Prof. Marco Frittelli (Univ. degli Studi di Milano) Prof. Fabio Maccheroni (Univ.

Seminar in Statistics - PETER GRUNWALD

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 14 Aprile 2023, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Peter Grunwald* (CWI and Universitet Leiden, Netherlands) Title: *E is for Evidence* Abstract: How much evidence do the data give us about one hypothesis versus another? The standard way to measure evidence is still the p-value, despite a myriad of problems surrounding it. We present the e-value, a recently popularized notion of evidence which overcomes some of these issues. While e-values were only given a name as recently as 2019, interest in them has since exploded with papers in the Annals, JRSS B, Biometrika and the like – June 2022 saw the first international workshop on e-values, a second one is planned. In simple cases, e-values coincide with Bayes factors. But if the null is composite or nonparametric, or an alternative cannot be explicitly formulated, e-values and Bayes factors become distinct and e-processes can be seen as a generalization of nonnegative supermartingales. Thus, unlike the Bayes factor, e-values always allow for tests with strict frequentist Type-I error control under optional continuation of data collection and combination of data from different sources. E-values are also the basic building blocks of anytime-valid confidence intervals that remain valid under continuous monitoring and optional stopping. In parametric settings they tend to be strictly wider than, hence consistent with Bayesian credible intervals. This led to the development of the e-posterior, an analogue to the Bayesian posterior that gets wider rather than wrong if the prior is chosen badly. This work is based on: P. Grunwald,. R. de Heide, W. Koolen (2023). Safe Testing. To appear in J. Roy. Stat. Soc., Series B P. Grunwald (2023) . The E-Posterior. Proc. Phil. Trans. Soc.

OWPS Tomorrow: Fabio Toninelli and Giuseppe Cannizzaro
by Alberto Chiarini 11 Apr '23

11 Apr '23

Dear all, A reminder that tomorrow (Wednesday), from 15:00 to 17:00 UTC (17:00 to 19:00 Central European Time), Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) and Giuseppe Cannizzaro (University of Warwick) will be speaking at the One World Probability Seminar. Title, abstract and the zoom link are below the signature and can be found on the website https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar. We kindly ask that you share this message within your community. With best wishes, Alberto Chiarini (Padua) and Adrián González Casanova (Berkeley and México) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Talk : Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) Title : Out-of-equilibrium phenomena, stochastic PDEs and Gaussian limits Abstract : I will report on mathematical progress on certain (non-linear, singular) stochastic PDEs that model effectively the mesoscopic behaviour of some out-of-equilibrium physical systems, most notably stochastic interface growth and driven diffusive systems. Scaling and Renormalization Group arguments suggest that, above the critical dimension d=2, the large-scale behaviour of these equations should be Gaussian. Our results imply, indeed, Gaussian scaling limits in dimension d\ge 3 (for driven diffusive systems) and also, at least in the regime of weak non-linearity, in the critical dimension d=2 (both for driven diffusive systems and for the Anisotropic KPZ equation). Talk : Giuseppe Cannizzaro (University of Warwick) Title : 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 certain stationary SPDEs at the critical dimension. Our techniques are inspired by the resolvent method developed by Landim, Olla, Yau, Ramirez, 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.
