Seminario di Probabilità - Università di Padova
by alessandra bianchi 05 Nov '13

05 Nov '13

Ho il piacere di invitarvi al seguente seminario, che si terrà lunedì 11 novembre, alle ore 14:30, nell'aula 2BC30 della Torre Archimede presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Padova. SPEAKER: Prof. Alessandra Faggionato AFFILIATION: Dip. di Matematica, Roma La Sapienza TITLE: Flows, currents and symmetries for continuous time Markov chains: a large deviation approach. ABSTRACT: We consider a continuous time Markov chain on a countable space (finite or infinite). We focus on the large deviations of the empirical measure, flow and current, as well as their generalization to higher order. In several cases the associated rate function is explicit. As application we investigate the Gallavotti-Cohen functional and its symmetry, and discuss several systems, including birth-and-death Markov chains, random walks on lattices approximating diffusions under an external potential, particle systems. -- Alessandra Bianchi Dip. di Matematica Pura e Applicata Università di Padova Via Trieste, 63 - 35121 Padova, Italy phone: +39 049 827 14 06 fax: +39 049 827 14 28 e-mail: bianchi(a)math.unipd.it http://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/

annuncio seminario

cari marco e francesco vi chiederei di far girare sulla mailing list random l'annuncio riportato sotto. grazie alessandra Martedi' 22 ottobre 2013, alle 14.30, nell'Aula B del Dip. di Matematica dell'Universita' La Sapienza, si terra' si seguente seminario Speaker: Pietro Caputo (Universita' di Roma III) Title: Large deviations in sparse random graphs: a local weak convergence approach Abstract: Consider the Erdos-Renyi random graph on n vertices where each edge is present independently with probability p = c/n, with c > 0 fixed. For large n, a typical realization locally behaves like the Galton-Watson tree with Poisson offspring distribution with mean c. We discuss large deviations from this typical behavior, within the framework of the local weak convergence introduced by Benjamini-Schramm and Aldous-Steele. The associated rate function is expressed in terms of an entropy functional on unimodular measures and takes finite values only at measures supported by trees. Along the way, we present a new configuration model which allows one to sample uniform random graphs with a given finite neighborhood distribution, provided the latter is supported by trees. We also present a new class of unimodular random trees, which generalizes the Galton-Watson tree with given degree distribution to the case of neighborhoods of arbitrary finite depth. This is joint work with Charles Bordenave. -- Prof. Alessandra Faggionato Department of Mathematics University La Sapienza Piazzale A. Moro, 2 00186 Rome - Italy
