Seminari del prof. Aldo Procacci

03 Jun '16

I giorni venerdì 10 e lunedì 13 giugno il prof. Aldo Procacci del Dipartimento di Matematica, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (Brasile) terrà due seminari presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Bologna, pazza Porta S. Donato 5, 40126 Bologna. Ven. 10 Giu, ore 17:00 aula Seminari VIII Piano The Mayer series: two explicit expressions for its coefficients and the combinatorial problem. We derive the (formal) Mayer series of the pressure of a system of classical particles interacting via a pair potential from the standard grand canonical partition function. We give two alternative representations of its coefficients e we discuss the combinatorial problem involved towards the question of its convergence. We conclude the talk by giving a brief review on results obtained and methods proposed , since 1963, to face this combinatorial problem Lun 13 Giu, ore 15:00 aula Enriques Convergence of the Mayer and Virial expansions and the Penrose tree-graph identity We establish new lower bounds for the convergence radius of the Mayer series and the Virial series of a continuous particle system interacting via a stable and tempered pair potential. Our bounds considerably improve those given by Penrose and Ruelle in 1963 for the Mayer series and by Lebowitz and Penrose in 1964 for the Virial series. To get our results we exploit the tree-graph identity given by Penrose in 1967 using a new partition scheme based on minumum spanning trees. 5x1000 AI GIOVANI RICERCATORI DELL'UNIVERSITÀ DI BOLOGNA Codice Fiscale: 80007010376

Annual European Seminar on Bayesian Econometrics - Venice October 2016 - Call for papers
by Monica Billio 02 Jun '16

02 Jun '16

7^th ANNUAL EUROPEAN SEMINAR ON BAYESIAN ECONOMETRICS *ESOBE 2016* * *Venice, Italy 27 - 28 October 2016 The workshop is organised by the *Department of Economics of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice *(Venice, Italy), and is co-sponsored by the *European Central Bank *(Frankfurt) and *GRETA Associati *(Venice, Italy). The ESOBE meetings aim at bringing together researchers and professionals interested in the application of Bayesian inference. Ever since the pioneering work of Arnold Zellner, Bayesian econometrics has expanded enormously in areas such as economics, finance, business, and marketing. Empirical applications of Bayesian econometrics deal with issues such as financial time series analysis, risk management, economic growth analysis, measurement of policy effectiveness, individual decision making in marketing, labour market analysis, forecasting in monetary policy, just to name a few. The computational revolution in simulation techniques is a key ingredient in this expansion and allows the application of Bayesian methods to increasingly complex models and high-dimensional data environments. The ESOBE meetings are intended as a discussion forum for new and recent research methods that are capable to face these challenges. These techniques include, among others, semi-parametric modelling based on mixtures, shrinkage estimators, and variable selection methods. The organizers encourage submissions of papers on any topic within the overall theme of the conference and in the following areas in particular: ·Bayesian financial econometrics ·Bayesian microeconometrics and program evaluation ·Bayesian nonparametric and semi-parametric methods based on countably infinite mixtures ·Shrinkage estimation and variable selection in high-dimensional data environments ·Computational methods for large datasets ·Efficient MCMC and SMC methods for complex models The keynote speakers of ESOBE 2016 are: ** *Christian P. Robert*(University Paris Dauphine and University of Warwick) *Thomas J. Sargent*(New York University) The Scientific Committee for the Conference consists of: *Monica Billio *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) *Fabio Canova*(BI Norwegian Business School) *Roberto Casarin *(Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) *Sylvia Frühwirth-Schnatter *(Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien) *Sylvia Kaufmann *(Study Center Gerzensee) *Gary Koop *(Strathclyde Business School) *Francesco Ravazzolo *(Free University of Bozen/Bolzano) *Herman K. van Dijk *(Erasmus University Rotterdam and VU University Amsterdam) CALL FOR PAPERS The final program will include both submitted and invited papers. In addition to invited presentations, the workshop will have: * contributed sessions; * a special session by junior scientist presentations; * a poster presentations. We would welcome submissions for these sessions. Submissions for the contributed sessions should be sent to ** <mailto:esobe2016@unive.it>*esobe2016(a)unive.it <mailto:esobe2016@unive.it>*by*July 15, 2016*. Researchers who received their Ph.D. after *October 2013 *or *expect to graduate by November 2016*, may register as "junior scientist" (a detailed CV has to be submitted during registration). Junior scientists may apply for a travel award (more detailed information will be soon available). Papers submitted by junior scientists will be eligible for the Special Session of Junior Scientist Presentations. IMPORTANT DATES July 15, 2016: Papers submission deadline August 20, 2016: Paper acceptance notification September 30, 2016: Deadline for registration More detailed information available on the Conference website: <http://virgo.unive.it/esobe2016/index.htm>http://virgo.unive.it/esobe2016/index.htm <http://www.greta.it/credit/credit2015/credit2015.htm> * Apologies for post-crossing.

PhD opportunity in Toulouse, France
by Pietro Caputo 31 May '16

31 May '16

Ricevo e inoltro il messaggio relativo a una borsa di dottorato. Gli interessati sono pregati di contattare Laurent Miclo entro il 6 giugno 2016 PhD opening Title: Study of the CSMA-QB access protocol Keywords: Convergence and long-time behavior of Markov processes, functional limit theorems, stochastic networks, independent sets Co-supervision: Laurent Miclo http://perso.math.univ-toulouse.fr/miclo/ Institut de Mathematiques de Toulouse, Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse Florian Simatos http://personnel.isae.fr/florian-simatos/ Departement d’Ingenierie des Systemes Complexes, ISAE–Supaero, Toulouse, et Institut de Mathematiques de Toulouse, Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse Contact: laurent.miclo(a)math.univ-toulouse.fr Localisation: ISAE–Supaero and Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse Summary of the project Context. The performance of wireless networks where users share the air as communication medium is strongly limited by the electromagnetic interference phenomenon: two users who are close and communicate on the same frequency will interfere, which may potentially lead to losing the information transmitted. Access protocols are here to mitigate this effect and thus play a key role in the performance of modern >From a scientific standpoint, this is a challenging problem that has attracted considerable attention from both the computer science and applied probability communities for more than 30 years. Recently, a new class of access protocols – called adaptive CSMA protocols – has emerged, and which seems very promising. These protocols were for instance shown to enjoy the very desirable property of being maximally stable. The goal of this project is to advance the state-of-the-art on the particular adaptive CSMA protocols called CSMA-QB protocols (where QB stands for Queue-Based), which to date is very limited. In particular, we will aim to prove theoretical results that shed light on the achievable trade-off between throughput and delay. Probabilistic model. From a technical standpoint, we will study the following model. Each user of the network is represented by the node of a graph G, called interference graph, and such that two neighboring nodes cannot be active simultaneously. Packets to be transmitted arrrive at each node over time, and the goal is to choose which nodes are active at every moment. CSMA-QB solves this problem in the following manner: when a node is active, it de-activates at a constant rate and when it is active and none of its neighbors is, then it activates at a rate that depends on the number of packets in its backlog. The dependency is given by a function ψ called activation function. The general goal of the thesis is to understand the influence of the topology G and of the choice of ψ on the protocol performance. This involves classical probabilistic tools, and we will in particular study the mixing time of Glauber dynamic as well as the stochastic averaging property, both of which play a key role in the analysis of this protocol.
