Seminario di Pietro Rigo a Bologna
by Massimo Campanino 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

Il giorno venerdì 22 marzo alle ore 14:30 nell'Aula Seminario 2 del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Bologna, piazza Porta S. Donato 5, il prof. Pietro Rigo del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Pavia terrà un seminario dal titolo: On the existence of continuous processes with given one-dimensional distribution Abstract: Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the collection of Borel probability measures on $\mathbb{R}$, equipped with the weak* topology, and let $\mu:[0,1]\rightarrow\mathcal{P}$ be a continuous map. Say that $\mu$ is presentable if $X_t\sim\mu_t$, $t\in [0,1]$, for some real process $X$ with continuous paths. It may be that $\mu$ fails to be presentable. Conditions for presentability are given in this note. For instance, $\mu$ is presentable if $\mu_t$ is supported by an interval for all but countably many $t$. In addition, assuming $\mu$ presentable, we investigate whether there is a continuous process $X$ with the same finite dimensional distributions as the quantile process $Q$ induced by $\mu$. The latter is defined, on the probability space $((0,1),\mathcal{B}(0,1),\,$Lebesgue measure$)$, by \begin{gather*} Q_t(\alpha)=\inf\,\bigl\{x\in\mathbb{R}:\mu_t(-\infty,x]\ge\alpha\bigl\}\quad\quad\text{for all }t\in [0,1]\text{ and }\alpha\in (0,1). \end{gather*} Various open problems are stated as well.

Seminario di Paolo Dai Pra a Bologna

13 Mar '19

Il giorno venerdì 22 marzo alle ore 12 nell'Aula Seminario 2 del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Bologna, piazza Porta S. Donato 5, il prof. Paolo Dai Pra del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Padova terrà un seminario dal titolo: Thermodynamic limit and phase transitions in non-cooperative games: some mean-ﬁeld examples Abstract: In stochastic dynamics inspired by Statistical Mechanics the interaction between diﬀerent particles, or agents, is usually expressed as a given function of their states. The behavior of the system, in the limit of inﬁnitely many particles (thermodynamic limit), may change dramatically by small changes in the parameters of the model: when this occurs we say there is a phase transition. In many applications the interaction cannot be given a priori but it is rather a result of agents’ strategy, aimed at optimizing a given performance. Using the simplest models of this nature, mean ﬁeld games, we illustrate some examples of phase transitions, pointing to diﬃculties in the proof of the thermodynamic limit.

A``WINTER'' DAY IN PROBABILITY AND STATISTICAL PHYSICS: 22 Marzo 2019 (Gallavotti e Rolles)
by Francesca Romana Nardi 12 Mar '19

12 Mar '19

Siamo felici di annunciarvi la settima giornata di seminari: A ``WINTER'' DAY IN PROBABILITY AND STATISTICAL PHYSICS University of Florence Friday 22 March 2019 Lecturers: Giovanni Gallavotti (Roma) and Silke Rolles (Munich) Location: Aula Tricerri Viale Morgagni 67, Firenze Informazionei su come arrivare alla pagina: https://www.dimai.unifi.it/vp-285-come-arrivare-how-to-get.html Prof. Giovanni Gallavotti (Universita` di Roma La Sapienza) Title: Title: Statistical ensembles, entropy and probability in statistical mechanics, and extension to chaotic motions. Abstract: A historical view on the theoretical developments generated by Boltzmann's attempt to find a mechanical interpretation of the second principle, from the action principle to the Boltzmann's equation to phase transitions and their universality to the modern developments in the non-equilibrium thermodynamics. In the second part the case of fluid mechanics and an interpretation of viscosity and irreversibility will be analyzed and related to an extension of the statistical ensembles to non-equilibrium phenomena. Prof. Silke Rolles (Technical University of Munich) Title: Processes with reinforcement. Abstract: In 1986, Persi Diaconis introduced edge-reinforced random walk as a simple model for a tourist exploring an unknown city. Already then, he raised the question of recurrence and transience of this process on the d-dimensional integer lattice. Since edge-reinforced random walk is more likely to traverse edges that have been traversed often before and simple random walk is recurrent in dimension 2, recurrence of edge-reinforced random walk on the two-dimensional integer lattice may seem intuitively clear. However, a proof of this result was only found in 2015 by Sabot and Zeng. For dimensions larger or equal to 3 a phase transition between recurrence and transience was shown by Disertori, Sabot and Tarres in 2011 and 2014. In the talk I will give an overview of the subject and present some basic techniques. In particular, the edge-reinforced random walk is a mixture of reversible Markov chains with an explicitly known mixing measure. In a special case, this can be illustrated with an analogous result for the Polya urn. Program: 11.00-11.45 Introductory lecture: Gallavotti 11.45-12.00 Break 12.00-12.45 Seminar: Gallavotti 13.00-14.30 Lunch 14.30-15.15 Introductory lecture: Rolles 15.15-15.30 Break 15.30-16.30 Seminar: Rolles Organizers: G.

Statistics Seminars 2019 Martedì 12 marzo 2019 ore 10 Aula II, Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, piano terra "BSDEs driven by a general random measure and optimal control for piecewise deterministic Markov processes" Dott.ssa Elena Bandini, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca Abstract: We consider an optimal control problem for piecewise deterministic Markov processes (PDMP) on a bounded state space. Here a pair of controls acts continuously on the deterministic flow and on the transition measure describing the jump dynamics of the process. For this class of control problems, the value function can be characterized as the unique viscosity solution to the corresponding integro-differential Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation with a non-local type boundary condition. We are able to provide a probabilistic representation for the value function in terms of a suitable backward stochastic differential equation, known as nonlinear Feynman-Kac formula. The jump mechanism from the boundary entails the presence of predictable jumps in the PDMP dynamics, so that the associated BSDE turns out to be driven by a random measure with predictable jumps. Existence and uniqueness results for such a class of equations are non-trivial and are related to recent works on well-posedness for BSDEs driven by non quasi-left-continuous random measures" Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare Alberto Lanconelli Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche "Paolo Fortunati" Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna

Seminario di Elena Bandini a Bologna

Statistics Seminars 2019 Martedì 12 marzo 2019 ore 16 Aula seminari, Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, I piano "BSDEs driven by a general random measure and optimal control for piecewise deterministic Markov processes" Dott.ssa Elena Bandini, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca Abstract: We consider an optimal control problem for piecewise deterministic Markov processes (PDMP) on a bounded state space. Here a pair of controls acts continuously on the deterministic flow and on the transition measure describing the jump dynamics of the process. For this class of control problems, the value function can be characterized as the unique viscosity solution to the corresponding integro-differential Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation with a non-local type boundary condition. We are able to provide a probabilistic representation for the value function in terms of a suitable backward stochastic differential equation, known as nonlinear Feynman-Kac formula. The jump mechanism from the boundary entails the presence of predictable jumps in the PDMP dynamics, so that the associated BSDE turns out to be driven by a random measure with predictable jumps. Existence and uniqueness results for such a class of equations are non-trivial and are related to recent works on well-posedness for BSDEs driven by non quasi-left-continuous random measures" Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare Alberto Lanconelli Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche "Paolo Fortunati" Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna

Seminario di Piergiacomo Sabino a Bologna

25 Feb '19

Statistics Seminars 2019 Lunedì 4 Marzo 2019 ore 15 Aula seminari - Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, I piano “Forward or backward simulation? A comparative study” Dr. Piergiacomo Sabino - Uniper Global Commodities SE, Dusseldorf Abstract:"The aim of this study is to present algorithms for the backward simulation of standard processes that are commonly used in financial applications. We extend the works of Ribeiro and Webber and Avramidis and L’Ecuyer on gamma bridge and obtain the backward construction of a Gamma process. Moreover, we are able to write a novel acceptance-rejection algorithm to simulate Inverse Gaussian (IG) processes backward in time. Therefore, using the time-change approach, we can easily get the backward generation of the Compound Poisson with infinitely divisible jumps, the Variance–Gamma the Normal–Inverse–Gaussian processes and then the time-changed version of the OU process (SubOU) introduced by Li and Linetsky. We then compare the computational costs of the sequential and backward path generation of such processes and show the advantages of adopting the latter one, in particular in the context of pricing American options or energy facilities like gas storages."

by stefano iacus 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

[Apologizes for cross-posting] Dear all, I’d like to draw your attention to the course CSAMA 2019 in Brixen/Bressanone - Statistical Data Analysis for Genome-Scale Biology (http://www-huber.embl.de/csama2019/ <http://www-huber.embl.de/csama2019/>). The one-week intensive course Statistical Data Analysis for Genome-Scale Biology teaches statistical and computational analysis of multi-omics studies in biology and biomedicine. It covers the underlying theory and state of the art (the morning lectures) and practical hands-on exercises based on the R / Bioconductor environment (the afternoon labs). At the end of the course, you should be able to run analysis workflows on your own (multi-)omic data, adapt and combine different tools, and make informed and scientifically sound choices about analysis strategies. The course is intended for researchers who have basic familiarity with the experimental technologies and their applications in biology, and who are interested in making the step from a user of bioinformatics software towards adapting or developing their own analysis workflows. If you have colleagues that you think might benefit, please let them know about the course. Thank you! Kind regards Stefano M. Iacus ----------------------------------- Prof. Stefano M.

Statistics Seminars 2019 Giovedì 28 febbraio 2019 ore 16 Aula seminari - Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, I piano "Density and tube estimates for diffusion processes under Hormander-type conditions" Dr. Paolo Pigato, Weierstrass Institute for Applied Analysis and Stochastics, Berlino Abstract:"We recall some classic results on the regularity of solutions of stochastic differential equations. Then we consider two specific diffusion processes satisfying hypoellipticity conditions of Hormander type. Using Malliavin Calculus techniques recently developed to deal with degenerate problems, we find estimates for the density of the law of the solution, which we use to prove exponential bounds for the probability that the diffusion remains in a small tube, around a deterministic path, up to a given time. We then present some work in progress on asymptotic sharp estimates for the density and its derivatives for a similar, higher dimensional system."

de Finetti risk seminar - February 2019
by Emanuela Rosazza 13 Feb '19

13 Feb '19

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the de Finetti Risk Seminars, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following Lecture Jocelyne Bion-Nadal Ecole Polytechnique, Paris Title: Fully-Dynamic risk-indifference pricing Abstract: We propose a dynamic risk-indifference pricing evaluation derived from a fully-dynamic risk- measure on Lp-spaces. The concept of fully-dynamic risk-measures offers the possibility of changing the risk perspectives over time. It ts well the study of both short and long term investments. Dynamic risk-indifference pricing is an alternative to utility-indifference pricing. In the case p = +infinity, we prove that risk indifference pricing provides a proper convex price system. On the contrary, for p < infinity, it turns out that the domain of the risk-indifference pricing operator is not the whole Lp(Ft), not even a vector space. Therefore we propose a new framework. We prove Fatou property and time-consistency and we obtain a represen- tation result.

seminario a Pavia - 19 febbraio 2019
by benedetta.ferrario 12 Feb '19

12 Feb '19

ANNUNCIO di SEMINARIO Martedì 19 febbraio 2019 la prof. Hakima Bessaih (Wyoming) terrà un seminario presso l'aula Beltrami del Dipartimento di Matematica - Pavia; inizio previsto per le ore 14:00 precise. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. *Title*: Numerical schemes for the 2d Stochastic Navier-Stokes equations: Strong rate of convergence. *Abstract*: We consider a time discretization scheme of Euler type for the 2d stochastic Navier-Stokes equations on the torus. We prove a mean square rate of convergence. This refines previous results established with a rate of convergence in probability only. Using exponential moment estimates of the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations and a convergence of a localized scheme, we can prove strong convergence of fully implicit and semi-implicit time Euler discretization and also a splitting scheme. The speed of convergence depends on the diffusion coefficient and the viscosity parameter.

Seminari prof. Popovici a Varese
by Moretto Enrico 11 Feb '19

11 Feb '19

con la presente chiedo che vengano diffusi mediante la lista random gli avvisi relativi a tre seminari che il prof. Nicolae Popovici (Department of Mathematics - Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science - Babes-Bolyai University – Cluj-Napoca, Romania) terrà presso il Dipartimento di Economia dell'Insubria. Si allegano anche le locandine. Grazie mille cordiali saluti enrico moretto *** Seminar announcement: Nicolae Popovici on a general local-global extremality principle in vector optimization On February 13th, 2019, 15.00-16.00, Prof. Nicolae Popovici (Department of Mathematics - Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science - Babes-Bolyai University – Cluj-Napoca, Romania) will give a talk on “A general local-global extremality principle in vector optimization” (joint with Ovidiu Bagdasar, University of Derby, UK) Abstract It is known that any local minimal point of a semistrictly quasiconvex real-valued function is a global minimal point; also, any local maximal point of an explicitly quasiconvex real-valued function is a global minimal point, provided that it belongs to the intrinsic core of the function's domain. We have shown that these local min - global min and local max - global min type properties can be extended and unified by a general local-global extremality principle for generalized convex vector-valued functions with respect to two proper subsets of the outcome space. Keywords: unified vector optimization; generalize convex functions. Seminar announcement: Nicolae Popovici on new algorithms for solving discrete vector optimization problems On February 14th, 2019, 15.00-16.00, Prof. Nicolae Popovici (Department of Mathematics - Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science - Babes-Bolyai University – Cluj-Napoca, Romania) will give a talk on “New algorithms for solving discrete vector optimization problems” (joint with Christian Guenther, Martin-Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany) Abstract We present some new Graef-Younes type algorithms for solving discrete vector optimization problems. In order to determine all minimal elements of a finite set with respect to an ordering cone, the original approach proposed by Jahn in 2006 (known as the Jahn-Graef-Younes method) consists of a forward iteration (Graef-Younes method), followed by a backward iteration. Our methods involve additional sorting procedures based on scalar cone-monotone functions. Keywords: discrete vector optimization; cone-monotone scalarization functions. Seminar announcement: Nicolae Popovici on a new algorithm for solving planar multiobjective location problems involving the Manhattan norm On February 15th, 2019, 11.00-12.00, Prof. Nicolae Popovici (Department of Mathematics - Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science - Babes-Bolyai University – Cluj-Napoca, Romania) will give a talk on “New algorithms for solving discrete vector optimization problems” (joint with Shabagh Alzorba, Christian Guenther and Christiane Tammer, Martin-Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany) Abstract We study unconstrained planar multiobjective location problems, where distances between points are defined by means of the Manhattan norm. By eliminating the nonessential objectives we develop an effective algorithm for generating the whole set of efficient solutions as the union of a special family of rectangles and line segments. Keywords: location problems; Fermat-Weber type problems; Matlab algorithms.

06 Feb '19

*Scientists, get out there!* The BIGMATH kickoff workshop Milano, March 11, 2019 http://itn-bigmath.unimi.it/bigmath-kickoff-workshop/ This is the opening workshop of the MSCA-ITN-EID project BIGMATH, an EU funded international and industrial PhD programme ( http://itn-bigmath.unimi.it) The workshop is divided into two parts: during the morning session the BIGMATH Programme will be illustrated, the companies partners of the programme will illustrate the Big Data challenges that they are posing to mathematicians, and the recruited PhD students will introduce themselves to the audience. The afternoon session will be devoted to promote good practices of scientific dissemination and public engagement, since this is one of the major challenges that our society and the EU is asking to scientists of any area of study. The talks of the afternoon session will then be addressed to a general public of scientists, working in any scientific field, or people working in the academic world, who would like to undertake the adventure of communicating their daily research in an effective way. The participation to both sessions is free of charge, but for organising reasons, we ask to participants *to register by February 28. * For further information please visit the web page http://itn-bigmath.unimi.it/bigmath-kickoff-workshop/ -- ------------------------------------ Alessandra Micheletti Associate Professor - Probability and Mathematical Statistics Dept. of Environmental Science and Policy - ESP Università degli Studi di Milano via Saldini 50, 20133 Milano, Italy phone: +39-02503-16130 fax: +39-02503-16090 http://users.mat.unimi.it/users/michel <http://www.mat.unimi.it/users/michel>
