seminario di probabilità a Pavia
by benedetta.ferrario 22 Nov '17

22 Nov '17

Mercoledi` 29 novembre alle ore 14:30 in aula Beltrami del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Pavia si svolgerà il seguente seminario: *Titolo* On a class of stochastic transport equations for L^2_loc vector fields *Relatore * Christian Olivera (Universita` di Campinas) *Abstract *In this talk we discuss the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of stochastic transport equations with irregular coefficients. Asking only boundedness of the divergence of the coefficients (a classical condition in both the deterministic and stochastic setting), we can lower the integrability regularity required in known results on the coefficients. This is based on a joint work with Ennio Fedrizzi and Wladimir Neves. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Seminario di Probabilita' e Statistica Matematica a Roma 1
by Faggionato, Alessandra 21 Nov '17

21 Nov '17

Buongiorno, Martedi' 28 Novembre alle ore 14.00 ci sara' il seguente seminario in Aula di Consiglio (Dipartimento di Matematica, Universita' La Sapienza) : *Speaker: *Lorenzo Dello Schiavo (Institut für Angewandte Mathematik — Universität Bonn) *Title: *Two characterizations of Dirichlet—Ferguson measures *Abstract:* We consider the Dirichlet—Ferguson (DF) measure, a random probability on a locally compact Polish space X introduced by Ferguson in [1]. The measure has ever since found many applications, widely ranging from Bayesian non-parametrics to population genetics and stochastic dynamics of infinite particle systems. Firstly, we compute the characteristic functional of DF measures (addressing, if time permits, connections of these measures with Lie algebra theory and Pólya Enumeration Theory). Secondly, we prove a characterization of DF measures via a Mecke-type integral identity. Profiting of connections between DF measures and Poisson measures on configuration spaces, we argue how DF measures may be regarded as ‘canonical' measures on the space P(X) of Borel probability measures on X. Partly based on joint work with E. W. Lytvynov, University of Swansea, Wales, UK. [1] Ferguson, T. S., Ann. Stat. 1(2), pp. 209-230, 1973 Cordialmente, Alessandra -- ************************************************* Prof. Alessandra Faggionato http://www1.mat.uniroma1.it/~faggionato/ Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome Office 5, Phone (0039) 06 49913252 *************************************************
