Seminar at Dep. of Economics - Verona, 27 September 2018, Giacomo Bormetti
by Alessandro Gnoatto 24 Sep '18

24 Sep '18

Dear all, On Thursday 27 September 2018 at 12.00 - Polo Santa Marta, Via Cantarane 24, Sala Vaona Prof. Giacomo Bormetti - University of Bologna will give the seminar "Modeling correlation dynamics with canonical Vines" Abstract: When modeling correlation dynamics, tackling the issue of positive definiteness is a challenging task. At high frequencies in a multivariate financial setting, observational noise and asynchronicity makes the goal even more difficult. After reviewing different observation-driven approaches available in literature, I will focus on a recently proposed modeling framework based on regular vines. Please also find attached the full list of our Finance seminars. Feel free to forward this announcement to your colleagues.

Spring school on Random Interfaces
by Luigi Amedeo Bianchi 19 Sep '18

19 Sep '18

Dear all, this is the first announcement for the spring school on Random Interfaces to be held at the University of Augsburg, Germany, for three full days from March 13th to March 15th, 2019. The school will focus on random interfaces, both continuous (approached by means of stochastic partial differential equations) and discrete (together with their hydrodynamic limits). The school will feature a main course by Tadahisa Funaki (Waseda University/University of Tokyo), a minicourse by Fabio Toninelli (Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1) and an invited lecture by Dimitra Antonopoulou (University of Chester). A poster session for participants is also foreseen. This spring school is intended for PhD students and young researchers, but open for everyone. Registration to the school is free, but compulsory for organisatorial purposes. Limited funds are available to offer financial support to some selected students and young researchers (post-docs). The deadline for application is 15th December 2018. More information and the registration form are available on the website https://www.math.uni-augsburg.de/de/prof/ana/Workshops_Tagungen/Spring-Scho… <https://www.math.uni-augsburg.de/de/prof/ana/Workshops_Tagungen/Spring-Scho…> We are looking forward to seeing you in Augsburg.

I: Avviso di seminario
by Massimo Campanino 18 Sep '18

18 Sep '18

Il giorno 20 settembre alle ore 14 nell'Aula Seminario 2 del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Bologna in piazza Porta S. Donato 5 il prof. Pietro Rigo del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Pavia terrà un seminario dal titolo: CLASSICAL VERSUS COHERENT CONDITIONAL PROBABILITIES ABSTRACT: The standard (Kolmogorovian) notion of conditional probability is compared with the (de Finettian) notion based on the coherence principle. Each notion has both merits and drawbacks, and the talk aims to highlight them with special attention to the connection points. Various results, both old and new, are discussed and some open problems are mentioned. The talk is split into four parts. (i) Classical (Kolmogorovian) conditional probabilities; (ii) Disintegrability; (iii) Coherent (de Finettian) conditional probabilities; (iv) Some statistical implications.

An extended two pages abstract must be sent by the Abstract Submission form before November 15, 2018. *Stochastic Models and Applications to Natural, Social and Technical Systems (Nobile, Di Crescenzo)* The Workshop deals with theory and applications of probability in the modeling of random phenomena in the natural sciences, social sciences and technology, focusing on mathematical theory, analytical, algorithmic, experimental approaches and computational methods. Practical applications of stochastic models to diverse areas such as biology, computer science, telecommunications modeling, inventories, reliability, queueing theory, optimization and operations research are very welcome as well. Attention is given also to probabilistic methods in data science and related areas, and their applications to the treatment of big data. Many greetings, Amelia Nobile and Antonio Di Crescenzo
