Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma, Sala di Consiglio Giovedì 9 Febbraio 2023, ore 16:00 *Speaker:* Daniel Ueltschi, University of Warwick *Title*: Quantum spin chains, loop representations, dimerisation *Abstract:* In contrast to their classical counterparts, one-dimensional quantum spin systems are interesting, they have intriguing behaviour, and they are difficult to study. I will describe a family of systems with nearest-neighbour interactions and O(n) symmetry. Its ground state phase diagram is expected to have a rich structure. For large spins it is possible to prove the occurrence of dimerisation in an open domain. The proof involves a loop representation and the method of cluster expansions. This is joint work with Jakob Bjornberg, Peter Muhlbacher, and Bruno Nachtergaele.

Seminar: Giovanni Conforti at Tor Vergata
by mic sal 02 Feb '23

02 Feb '23

Dear all, On Wednesday, February 1st, at 14h00 in Aula Dal Passo at Roma Tor Vergata, RoMaDS (https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~rds/about.php) will host Giovanni Conforti (École Polytechnique) with the seminar "A probabilistic approach to exponential convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm" Abstract: The entropic optimal transport problem (EOT) is obtained adding an entropic regularisation term in the cost function of the Monge-Kantorovich problem and is nowadays regularly employed in machine learning applications as a more tractable and numerically more stable version of the optimal transport problem. On the other hand, E.Schrödinger asked back in 1931 the question of finding the most likely evolution of a cloud of independent Brownian particles conditionally to observations. The mathematical formulation of his question through large deviations theory is known as the Schrödinger problem and turns out to be fully equivalent to EOT. In this talk, I shall illustrate both viewpoints and then move on to sketch the ideas of a probabilistic method to show exponential convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm, whose application the heart of the recent successful applications of EOT in statistical machine learning and beyond. In particular, we shall discuss how the proposed method opens new perspective for showing exponential convergence for marginal distribution that are non compactly supported. We encourage in-person partecipation. Should you be unable to come, here is the link to the event on Teams: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3arfsL73KX-fw86y1YnXq2nk5VnZFw… The seminar is part of the Excellence Project Math@TOV.

SPASS Seminar: Elia Bisi and Michele Coghi
by Gianmarco Bet 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following (double) SPASS seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi (abstracts below): Matrix Whittaker processes Elia Bisi (TU Wien) and Rough McKean-Vlasov dynamics for robust ensemble Kalman filtering Michele Coghi (Università di Trento) The seminars will take place on TUE, 7.2.2023 respectively at 14:00 CET and 15:00 CET in Sala Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, Pisa and streamed online at the link below. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass&source…> -------------------------------------------- Matrix Whittaker processes Abstract: Our journey starts from interacting random walks with push-and-block dynamics. We then consider their positive temperature analogues, touching upon polymer partition functions. Finally, we arrive at matrix Whittaker processes, which are integrable models of interacting Markov dynamics on matrix spaces. Our main tools are intertwining relations and the theory of Markov functions, which we will review. This talk is based on a joint work with Jonas Arista and Neil O’Connell: https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.14868. Rough McKean-Vlasov dynamics for robust ensemble Kalman filtering Abstract: Motivated by the challenge of incorporating data into misspecified and multiscale dynamical models, we study a McKean-Vlasov equation that contains the data stream as a common driving rough path. This setting allows us to prove well-posedness as well as continuity with respect to the driver in an appropriate rough-path topology. The latter property is key in our subsequent development of a robust data assimilation methodology: We establish propagation of chaos for the associated interacting particle system, which in turn is suggestive of a numerical scheme that can be viewed as an extension of the ensemble Kalman filter to a rough-path framework. Finally, we discuss a data-driven method based on subsampling to construct suitable rough path lifts and demonstrate the robustness of our scheme in a number of numerical experiments related to parameter estimation problems in multiscale contexts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Gianmarco Bet (he/him) Senior researcher https://gianmarco.bet Phone: (+39) 055 2751491 Department of Mathematics and Informatics "U.

Webinar PRISMA 6 febbraio 23 : Di Crescenzo-Cappelletti
by Claudia Ceci 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Buongiorno a tutte/i, ho il piacere di annunciare il prossimo webinar del ciclo di seminari online promosso dal Gruppo UMI PRISMA ( http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/index.html) *Lunedi’ 6 febbraio 2023* *ore 16-17 Antonio Di Crescenzo* *Titolo: *You can model so many things with birth-death processes *Abstract:* Birth-death processes constitute the continuous-time analog of random walks, and are largely adopted as a tool for stochastic modeling. Indeed, the richness of the birth and death rates allows modeling a variety of phenomena, ranging from evolutionary dynamics and neuronal modeling, to queueing and reliability theory, for instance. Various methods of analysis have been developed for determining quantities of interest, such as stationary distributions and first-passage-time distributions. The talk is aimed at providing a review of some recent results on growth-evolution models characterized by time-dependent growth rates and their stochastic counterpart described by birth-death processes. The analysis focuses on generalizations of the Gompertz and logistic growth models, and on the related birth-death processes having linear and quadratic rates. A diffusion approximation leading to a time-inhomogeneous geometric Brownian motion is also treated. We also present certain generalizations involving extended birth-death processes on a star-graph defined as a lattice formed by the integers of semiaxes joined at the origin. Specifically, we deal with (i) the analysis of the transient and asymptotic behavior of a multispecies birth-death-immigration process and of a continuous-time multi-type Ehrenfest model, (ii) the construction and the study of suitable diffusion approximations for the considered models, leading to two processes belonging to the class of Pearson diffusions on the spider. *ore 17-18* *Daniele Cappelletti* *Titolo: * Solving the chemical recurrence conjecture in two dimensions *Abstract:* Stochastic reaction networks are continuous-time Markov chains typically used in biology, epidemiology, and population dynamics. The goal is to keep track of the abundance of the different reactants over time. What makes them special from a mathematical point of view is the fact that their qualitative dynamics is described by a finite set of allowed transformation rules, referred to as "reaction graph". A long-standing conjecture is that models with a reaction graph composed by a union of strongly connected components are necessarily positive recurrent, meaning that each single state is positive recurrent. In my talk I will discuss why the conjecture makes intuitive sense and why it is difficult to prove it. I will then show how my collaborators and I adapted Forster-Lyapunov techniques to prove the conjecture in two dimensions.
