Dear Colleagues,
I would like to draw your attention to the approaching deadline for the following academic position (April 14th 2024, AT 1:00 P.M. CET)
The Department of Economics at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice is currently seeking applications for an
Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) (RTT) in Mathematical Methods of Economics, Finance, and Actuarial Sciences (13/D4 – SECS-S/06).
This tenure track opportunity offers a pathway to tenure as an Associate Professor within a timeframe of three to six years, contingent upon a positive evaluation from the department and attainment of the Italian national habilitation to an associate professorship.
The Economics Department at Ca Foscari has been recognized as a "Department of Excellence" by the Italian Ministry of Education, University, and Research, securing special financial support for the 2023/2027 period. The department consistently ranks favourably for research output across national and international research rankings.
We encourage applications from candidates with a strong research track record whose research aligns with the core themes of the SECS-S/06 disciplinary sector. Ideal candidates will possess expertise in mathematical models and methodologies pertinent to economics, finance, and actuarial sciences. This includes but is not limited to quantitative finance, decision theory, risk and uncertainty management, and the application of agent-based and computational methods (including data analysis).
Successful candidates will exhibit a strong commitment to delivering high-quality teaching. The department offers courses taught in both Italian and English at various academic levels, though knowledge of Italian is initially not required.
We welcome applications from international scholars. For those based abroad, special conditions apply, and they may benefit from a favourable tax waiver scheme.

Dear all,
An 18-month post-doc position in "Stochastic Processes for Energy Transport: Models and Simulations" is currently available at CEREMADE (Université Paris-Dauphine-PSL).
Details about the position can be found at the following link https://www.ceremade.dauphine.fr/~iacob/PDFs/postdocANRSINEQ.pdf .
The starting date is flexible, with a deadline no later than October 2024.
Please forward this announcement to any potentially interested candidates.
Best wishes,
Alessandra Iacobucci and Stefano Olla
Dear colleagues,
I am glad to announce the following talk which is part of the *"Seminario
Matematico e Fisico di Milano" *activities.
Speaker: *François Delarue* (Univ. Côte d'Azur)
Title:* Mean field control and games. Some prospects. *
*Time and place:* April 18, 2024 - 2:00pm-3:00pm - building U5/room 3014
Dept. of Mathematics and Applications, Univ. Milano-Bicocca.
*Abstract:* I will first give a brief overview of the notion of mean-field
control and games. In particular, I will focus on the Eulerian formulation,
through the notion of master equation, which is a nonlinear PDE on the
space of probability measures. This PDE is notoriously difficult to solve,
at least in a classical sense, except in cases presenting a form of
convexity or monotonicity in the argument of the measure. I will then
present two problems outside the convex/monotonic framework: (i) non-convex
mean-field control problems and their particle approximation, (ii)
mean-field games subject to certain non-standard forms of common noise.
Best wishes,
Maurizia Rossi
