Colloquium di Arnaud Guillin a Roma Tre, mercoledi 25 maggio alle 16
by Pietro Caputo 20 May '16

COLLOQUIUM DI MATEMATICA ROMA TRE Prof. Arnaud Guillin Universite' Blaise Pascal Titolo: When Lyapunov meets Poincare' and (log-) Sobolev Mercoledi' 25 Maggio 2016 ORE 16:00 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Aula F, primo piano, edificio Aule - Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 Abstract: Functional inequalities such as Poincare' or log-Sobolev inequalities have proved to be crucial in various fields, enabling to prove concentration of measure, speed of convergence to equilibrium, contractivity properties... and so much more, for example linked to curvature dimension condition. In probability, completely different techniques based on return time to nice set established via Lyapunov conditions and coupling enable to establish convergence to equilibrium. We will present here both approach, and their fundamental properties, and will finally link them in a (nice ? and) novel way.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 16 May 2016 09:56:12 +0200 From: Elisa Appolloni <elisa.appolloni(a)symmys.com> To: Tiziano Vargiolu <vargiolu(a)math.unipd.it> Subject: opportunity in ARPM Dear Professor Vargiolu I am reaching out to you because at ARPM (the company for which I work) we are looking to add new resources for our Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management program. Would you mind circulating the message below to interested and qualified candidates? Interested candidates can send me an email at elisa.appolloni(a)symmys.com. Thank you, Elisa Appolloni *** The company ARPM, LLC (www.arpm.co) is a privately held research institution based in New York City, directed by Attilio Meucci. ARPM's mission is to spread Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management ideas and techniques in the financial industry and in academia. The opportunity ARPM is looking for new consultants for its research project in Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management. The job, which requires a full time commitment, consists of reviewing and coding case studies in advanced quantitative finance. The consultant will work remotely from home or from one of the affiliate universities, communicating via multi-media with other members of the ARPM team. The position represents an excellent academic experience for applicants who intend to pursue a PhD, which ARPM may sponsor. The position also presents a great opportunity for candidates (that maybe have already a PhD) who wish to remain in the financial industry. Indeed, the learning curve is constantly steep, and the compensation is competitive. The candidate - Master's level degree in Physics, Mathematics or Economics (the PhD or master's degree in Quantitative Finance is a plus) - Good knowledge of multivariate calculus, linear algebra, multivariate statistics, probability, financial mathematics - Proficiency in LaTeX - Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or similar programming languages - Working knowledge of English Compensation 22,000 euros per year (Graduate) 24,000 euros per year (Master in Quantitative Finance/PhD) -- ARPM - Advanced Risk and Portfolio Management?
