Inoltro il seguente messaggio Applications are invited for a tenure-track professorship, starting at the beginning of the 2024-2025 academic year, within the Department of Mathematics at the University of Angers, France. The Mathematics department is looking for a candidate holding a PhD in mathematics whose research work is already widely recognized. The successful candidate's research will lie within the area of branching structures in probability theory. More specifically, his or her area of research should focus on branching structures such as discrete and continuous branching processes, spatial branching processes, random graphs, graph theory in combinatorics, fragmentation and coalescence, and/or applications in biology and particle physics. The appointed candidate will join the Analysis, Statistics and Probability team at the Laboratoire Angevin de Recherche en Mathématiques (LAREMA, UMR CNRS 6093) on September 1st, 2024. The initial three to five-year tenure-track contract offers very favorable conditions for research, with substantial support for travel, equipment and research support, as well as a competitive salary and a reduced teaching load. Courses will be taught in either French or English. In addition to teaching and research, the appointed candidate is expected to actively contribute to the scientific activities of the department, supervise (post)doctoral students, and raise external funding from the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR), the ERC, or similar funding bodies. After the tenure-track period, this position is expected to lead to a permanent professorship corresponding to a "Professeur des Universités" position in the French Higher Education framework. Closing date for applications: 4pm (Paris) on April 30th, 2024. Applications should be submitted online via the link https://galaxie.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/antares/can/index.jsp (if this is your first visit to the website, please create an account by clicking on the link within the "Information" box just above the Login/Password fields).

Seminario Eliseo Luongo - Politecnico di Milano - 4 Aprile 2024

03 Apr '24

Si segnala il seguente seminario a tutti gli interessati. Giovedì 4 Aprile 2024, ore 11:30. Aula Seminari Mox - VI Piano, Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano. Speaker: Eliseo Luongo, Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa. Title: Global Well-Posedness and Interior Regularity of 2D Navier-Stokes Equations with Stochastic Wind Driven Boundary Conditions. Abstract: Partial differential equations with boundary noise have been introduced by Da Prato and Zabczyck. They showed that, also in the one dimensional case, the solutions of the heat equation with white noise Dirichlet or Neumann Boundary conditions have low regularity compared to the case of noise diffused inside the domain. In particular, in the case of Dirichlet boundary conditions the solution is only a distribution. Some improvements in the analysis of the interior regularity of the solutions of these problems and some nonlinear variants have been obtained exploiting specific properties of the heat kernel and of suitable nonlinearities. All these issues make the problem of treating non-linear partial differential equations with boundary noise coming from fluid dynamical models an, almost untouched, field of open problems. In this talk we discuss the global well-posedness and the interior regularity of a system of 2D Navier-Stokes equations with inhomogeneous stochastic boundary conditions. The noise, white in time and coloured in space, can be interpreted as the physical law describing the driving mechanism on the atmosphere-ocean interface, i.e. as a balance of the shear stress of the ocean and the horizontal wind force. The talk is based on a joint work with A. Agresti.

Seminario Padova - Stephan Eckstein

02 Apr '24

Buongiorno a tutti, Vorremmo segnalarvi che venerdì prossimo (5 Aprile) alle ore 14:30 in aula 2AB40 (Torre Archimede, Università di Padova) ci sarà un seminario per il ciclo di seminari in Probabilità e Finanza di: Stephan Eckstein (Tübingen University) <https://sites.google.com/view/stephan-eckstein/startseite> https://sites.google.com/view/stephan-eckstein/ Title: Exponential convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm and Hilbert's projective metric for unbounded functions Date: April 5, 2024, at 14:30, 2AB40 Abstract: Entropic regularization of optimal transport has found numerous applications in various fields recently. A major reason of this surge in applications is the popularization of Sinkhorn's algorithm to efficiently solve the entropic optimal transport problem numerically. The topic of this talk is the (rate of) convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm. In bounded settings, it is known that Sinkhorn's algorithm converges with exponential rate, which is a consequence of applying a commonly used version of Hilbert's metric corresponding to the cone of all non-negative functions. This talk shows how to define versions of Hilbert's metric so that we can show exponential convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm even in unbounded settings. This is done through the use of cones which are a relaxations of the cone of all non-negative functions, in the sense that they include all functions having non-negative integral values when multiplied with certain test functions. Along the way, we establish that kernel integral operators are contractions with respect to suitable versions of Hilberts metric, even if the kernel functions are not bounded away from zero. Vi aspettiamo numerosi! Alberto Chiarini e Alekos Cecchin Sito web del seminario: https://www.math.unipd.it/~chiarini/seminars/

Seminar: Laura D'Angelo April 09, 2024, Ca' Foscari University of Venice
by Carlo Gaetan 28 Mar '24

28 Mar '24

Dear all, we are glad to announce the following hybrid seminar *April 09, 2024, 12:15 PM* *Where*: Aula Delta 2C- edificio Delta (Campus Scientifico), Via Torino, 155 Mestre (Venice, Italy) Zoom: https://unive.zoom.us/j/85153268624?pwd=MzBhdlA2M1B2dThJQ2Y5T0EwUE5PZz09 *Speaker*: Laura D'Angelo, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca (Italy) *Title*: Analyzing the activation patterns and heterogeneity of the neuronal response via Bayesian mixture models *Abstract:* The modern technique of calcium imaging is revolutionizing the understanding of the nervous system, thanks to its ability to image the activity of individual neurons over time in freely moving animals. This technology has led to remarkable insights into how neurons process and encode information, both individually and collectively. In this talk, we examine how Bayesian mixture models can help uncover the complex functioning of neurons in different experimental studies. First, we discuss a nested mixture model to analyze how the activity of an individual cell is affected by visual stimuli that vary over time. Then, we move to a multivariate model to identify groups of co-activating neurons, where the information on the anatomical proximity is introduced to inform the clustering procedure. At the basis of both models is a simple but effective state-space formulation that describes the calcium dynamic and relates it to the latent firing events. Through these examples, we show how the Bayesian nonparametric framework is ideal for flexibly modeling the unobserved neuronal activity, identifying patterns of activity, borrowing information across experimental conditions, and including additional knowledge.
