Padova Seminars in Probability and Finance - Simone Floreani (University of Oxford)
by Alberto Chiarini 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the "Padova Seminars in Probability and Finance seminar" that will take place on December 21st at 11.00 in Padova in room 2AB45 at the department of Mathematics “Tullio Levi-Civita". The seminar will be held in person and online via the Zoom platform. _____________________________________________________ Speaker: Simone Floreani (University of Oxford) Title: Hydrodynamics for the partial exclusion process in random environment via stochastic duality Date and time: Wednesday, DECEMBER 21st at 11.00 Place: room 2AB45 at the Department of Mathematics, University of Padova Zoom link: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/88295505400 available also on the webpage https://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/seminari/ Abstract: In this talk, I present a partial exclusion process in random environment, a system of random walks where the random environment is obtained by assigning a maximal occupancy to each site of the Euclidean lattice. This maximal occupancy is allowed to randomly vary among sites, and partial exclusion occurs. After recalling some results on the Bouchaud's trap model, I will show that, when assuming that the maximal occupancies are heavy tailed and i.i.d., the hydrodynamic limit of the particle system is the fractional-kinetics equation. The strategy of the proof is based on stochastic duality, a useful tool in probability theory which allows to study a Markov process (the one that interests you) via another one, called dual process, which is hopefully simpler. In the final part of the talk, I will focus on how some duality relations can be obtained in a more general framework.

SPASS seminar: Andrea Papini - TUE 20.12 at 14:00
by Andrea Agazzi 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS <https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass> seminar, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: *Turbulence Enhancement in Kinetic Coagulation Equations* by Andrea Papini (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa) The seminar will take place in person on *TUE, 20.12.2022 at 14:00 CET* in Aula Seminari, Department of Mathematics, University of Pisa and streamed online here <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass -------------------------------------------- *Title: Turbulence Enhancement in Kinetic Coagulation Equations* *Abstract: A Smoluchowski type model of coagulation in a turbulent fluid is given, heuristically expressed by means of a stochastic model of a system of second-order (microscopic) coagulating particles, then in a suitable scaling limit as a deterministic model with enhanced diffusion in the velocity component. Existence, uniqueness and regularity is proven under different initial conditions in suitable weighted spaces for the spatially-homogeneous PDE. A precise link between mean intensity of the turbulent velocity field and coagulation enhancement is obtained by numerical simulations.* *Based on joint works with Franco Flandoli and Ruojun Huang.*

Seminar by Salvatore Scognamiglio in Milano (21.12.22)

Dear all, you're invited to the seminar that will take place, in hybrid mode, at the Department of Statistics and Quantitative Methods, University of Milano-Bicocca. More details: 21st of December 2022, h 16:30, Aula seminari 4026, Building U7, 4th floor Department of Statistics and Quantitative Methods, University of Milano-Bicocca Webex Link: https://unimib.webex.com/unimib/j.php?MTID=mcd5a40a675fd6136e8c3be8a8ead4143 Join by meeting number Meeting number (access code): 2742 148 3807 Meeting password: x3765HJJdRf (93765455 from phones) Speaker: Salvatore Scognamiglio Title: ''Deep learning models for longevity risk'' Abstract: In recent decades, the mortality rates of most developed countries have been gradually declining due to improvements in public health, medical advances, lifestyle changes and government regulation. Although longevity improvement is an obvious benefit for society, it could also represent a risk for governments and insurance companies. Indeed, they could get in financial trouble if they do not adequately consider these longevity improvements for retirement planning and life insurance product pricing. The risk that future mortality and life expectancy outcomes turn out differently than expected is typically called longevity risk, and its management requires stochastic mortality projection models. We introduce a neural network (NN) to fit the Lee-Carter models and some of its extensions on multiple populations. The NN architecture is specifically designed to calibrate each individual model using all available information instead of using a population-specific subset of data as in the traditional estimation schemes. An extensive set of numerical experiments performed on all the countries of the Human Mortality Database shows the effectiveness of our approach. In particular, the resulting parameter estimates appear smooth and less sensitive to the random fluctuations often present in the mortality rates’ data, especially for low-population countries. In addition, the forecasting performance results significantly improved as well.

Annuncio Seminario Sapienza - Giacomo Greco
by Lorenzo Taggi 14 Dec '22

14 Dec '22

Martedì 20 Dicembre, ore 14:00, Sapienza Università di Roma, Dipartimento di Matematica, Sala di Consiglio *Speaker: *Giacomo Greco (Eindhoven University of Technology TU/e) *Titolo:* Travelling through turnpikes in the Kinetic Schrödinger Problem *Abstract:* The Schrödinger problem consists in finding the most likely evolution of a system of i.i.d. particles, conditionally on their initial and final configurations. In the last decade this problem has become more and more popular, thanks to its connections with stochastic optimal control theory and optimal transport. In this talk we are going to introduce a Schrödinger problem where the particles follow an (underdamped) Langevin dynamics (i.e. their density satisfies the kinetic Fokker-Planck equation) and where we are given only a partial observation of the initial and final configurations. Then, we will investigate the long-time behaviour of this kinetic system, proving that its most likely evolution is exactly the one that spends most of the time exponentially close to the equilibrium configuration (this property is commonly known in stochastic control theory as the turnpike property). Based on the paper Electron. J. Probab. 27: 1-32 (2022). DOI: 10.1214/22-EJP850
