PhD position in Bern
by fabio bellini 24 Oct '17

24 Oct '17

A message from Johanna Ziegel and Ilya Molchanov: UNIVERSITY OF BERN (INSTITUTE OF MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS AND ACTUARIAL SCIENCE) PhD POSITION in PROBABILITY THEORY Funding from the SNF (Swiss National Science Foundation) is available for a PhD student (3 years) to work on the project `Poisson approximation and extreme values in stochastic geometry' of Prof. Ilya Molchanov and Dr. Matthias Schulte. The focus of this project is on topics such as the Malliavin-Chen-Stein method, extreme values in stochastic geometry, random simplicial complexes and metric measure spaces. The PhD student will be supervised by Dr. Matthias Schulte. It is anticipated that the prospective PhD student has a background in mathematics with emphasis on probability theory. The salary will be at the level foreseen by the SNF, see http://www.snf.ch/ SiteCollectionDocuments/allg_doktorierende_d.pdf. There might be a possibility to complement the salary by taking up teaching and statistical consulting duties. The starting date should be as soon as possible or as can be arranged by a mutual agreement. Applications (cover letter, CV, and transcripts from the studies) giving the name and address (postal and e-mail) of an academic referee should be e-mailed as a single file to Prof. Ilya Molchanov ilya.molchanov(a)stat.unibe.ch and Dr. Matthias Schulte matthias.schulte(a)stat.unibe.ch. Applications are considered until the position is filled. Informal e-mail enquiries are welcome. http://www.imsv.unibe.ch

Avviso di seminario, Università di Trento "Regularization by noise for transport and kinetic equations" Martedì 31 ottobre 2017 *Luogo:* Dipartimento di Matematica, via Sommarive, 14 - Povo (TN) - Aula Seminari "-1" *Ore*: 11.00 - *Relatore: *Ennio Fedrizzi (Applied Mathematical Department, ENSTA ParisTech) *Abstract: *For some differential equations the addition of a carefully chosen, random noise term can produce a regularising effect (e.g. solutions are more regular, or restored uniqueness). I will first mention a few easy examples (ODEs) to introduce some of these regularising mechanisms, then detail two cases where we have regularisation for a PDE: the linear transport equation and a kinetic equation with force term. I will present some classical results for these two equations, related to well-posedness and regularity of solutions, that in the stochastic setting can be obtained under weaker hypothesis. These results are based on a careful analysis of the stochastic characteristics and the regularising properties of some associated parabolic/elliptic PDE. If time allows, I will conclude by introducing a new strategy of proof based on stochastic exponentials and an associated parabolic PDE, which allows to obtain, under even weaker hypothesis, well-posedness for stochastic PDEs in a class of solutions which are only regular in mean. This will be illustrated by an application to the transport equation. *Referente: *Stefano Bonaccorsi

October 26 from 12:00 to 13:00, Department of Economics and Finance LUISS room 207 viale Romania 32 00197 Roma. Speaker: Sylvain Sorin (IMJ, Université Pierre at Marie Curie) Title: Optimization, learning and games. ``Replicator dynamics: old and new’’ Abstract: We will describe the unilateral version associated to the replicator dynamics and its connection to on-line learning procedures and classical gradient algorithms in discrete and continuous time. We will survey recent results on extensions of this dynamics: regularization functions and variable weights, time average and link to best reply dynamics in games, equilibria and variational inequalities, potential and dissipative games, Hessian Riemannian metrics. ******************************************************* Marco Scarsini Dipartimento di Economia e Finanza LUISS Viale Romania 32 00197 Roma, ITALY URL: http://docenti.luiss.it/scarsini/

Seminar by prof. Walter Schachermayer at LUISS
by Sara 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

Dear all, on Friday 24 November at 9:30, room A105 prof Schachermayer will give the following seminar: *Title:* The amazing power of dimensional analysis: Quantifying market impact *Abstract:* A basic problem when trading in financial markets is to analyze the prize movement caused by placing an order. Clearly we expect - ceteris paribus - that placing an order will move the price to the disadvantage of the agent. This price movement is called market impact. Following Kyle and Obizhaeva we apply dimensional analysis - a line of arguments wellknown in classical physics - to analyze to which extent the square root law applies. This universal law claims that the market impact is proportional to the square root of the size of the order. The mathematical tools of this analysis reside on elementary linear algebra. Joint work with Mathias Pohl, Alexander Ristig and Ludovic Tangpi. Regards, Sara -- Sara Biagini, Professor of Mathematical Finance Department of Economics and Finance LUISS Guido Carli Address: viale Romania, 32 - 00197 Roma Web: http://sites.google.com/site/sarabiagini/
