Seminario di Probabilita' a Roma 1
by Faggionato, Alessandra 07 Mar '18

07 Mar '18

Lunedi' 12 Marzo, Ore 16, Aula di Consiglio. Dipartimento di Matematica, La Sapienza. Speaker: Federico Camia (New York - Dubai University) Title: Limit Theorems and Random Fractal Curves in Statistical Mechanics Abstract: Rigorous statistical mechanics deals with stochastic systems that have a large number of components and for which geometry often plays an important role. The main goal is to understand their average behavior and deviations from that. Statistical mechanics has many applications to physics and other fields, but in this talk I will only focus on some aspects of its mathematical theory which combine discrete probability, stochastic processes and complex analysis. For concreteness, I will discuss two specific (two-dimensional) models, percolation and the Ising model, both with a long history. After introducing the two models, I will present an approach to the study of two-dimensional systems that leads to a special family of random fractal curves and that has produced, in the last twenty years, deep results and major breakthroughs. -- ************************************************* Prof. Alessandra Faggionato http://www1.mat.uniroma1.it/~faggionato/ Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome Office 5, Phone (0039) 06 49913252 *************************************************

Colloquium di Alexandre Stauffer a Roma Tre il 21-03-2018

Colloquium di Matematica a Roma Tre: Alexandre Stauffer (University of Bath, UK) Titolo: Random growth processes: dendritic formation and competition Mercoledi' 21 Marzo 2018 ORE 16:00 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Aula F, primo piano, edificio Aule - Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 Abstract During the 80's, several growth processes were introduced in the physics literature with the goal of providing a simple and tractable model producing the phenomenon of dendritic growth. Such phenomenon is observed in several different contexts in nature, including the growth of bacteria under starvation, crystal dendrite, dielectric breakdown, and electrodeposition, and is characterized by the formation of very ramified, fractal-like structures. Almost four decades later, we still encounter tremendous mathematical challenges in studying the geometric and dynamic properties of such processes, and in understanding the driving mechanism lying behind the formation of fractal-like structures. In this talk, I will survey the developments in this field, giving emphasis to recent results in the classical model of multi-particle diffusion limited aggregation (MDLA). I will also introduce and discuss a new growth process, which can be viewed as a model for the growth of two species that compete for space, and which plays a key role in our current understanding of MDLA. This is based on joint works with Elisabetta Candellero and Vladas Sidoravicius.

SEMINARIO di Probabilita' a Roma Tre Federico Camia (New York University, Abu Dhabi) Titolo: Scaling Limits for the Planar Ising Model Martedi' 13 Marzo 2018 ORE 15:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 - Pal.C - Aula 311 Abstract The continuum scaling limit is a procedure to study the large-scale behavior of lattice models of statistical mechanics. In the scaling limit, the lattice spacing is sent to zero while focus is kept on some macroscopic object or collection of objects within the model. In the last twenty years there has been tremendous progress in the study of the continuum scaling limits of some classical models, such as two-dimensional percolation and the planar Ising model, which are of interest because they undergo a phase transition. At or near the phase transition point the scaling limit is supposed to give rise to a Euclidean field theory. In this talk I will briefly introduce the planar Ising model and then describe some recent results concerning the scaling limit of the Ising magnetization and the truncated two-point function. The talk is based on joint work with Christoph Garban and Chuck Newman, Rene Conijn and Demeter Kiss, and Jianping Jiang and Chuck Newman.

Postdoc on Networks and Agent Based Model in Air Traffic
by Fabrizio Lillo 05 Mar '18

05 Mar '18

The call for two 19 month postdocs is open at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Bologna (Italy). The topic of the research is *Complex networks and agent based models for Air Traffic Management* funded by the Project UE "DOMINO - Novel tools to evaluate ATM systems coupling under future deployment scenarios” (Call: H2020-SESAR-2016-2, GA 783206) Prof. Fabrizio Lillo The details of the call are here: - Italian: http://www.matematica.unibo.it/it/bandi/ bando-per-nr.-2-assegni-di-ricerca-complex-networks-and- agent-based-models-for-air-traffic-management - English: http://www.mathematics.unibo.it/en/calls- of-competition/call-for-2-research-fellowships-complex- networks-and-agent-based-models-for-air-traffic-management See below for a short description of the project. The deadline is March 19 at noon. The interested candidates can either contact me or the addresses in the call in case they need further information. Thanks and all the best, Fabrizio Lillo fabrizio.lillo(a)unibo.it ############### The project consists in: (i) development and analysis, with computational an analytical methods, of toy models of air traffic. The models, with a small number of parameters, will describe the interaction between the different components (e.g. airlines and air traffic controllers (ii) calibration and use the developed models to identify the variables and metrics relevant in a real setting and to test new mechanisms and rule of air traffic control; (iii) building metrics of coupling among the different networks composing an airspace and test their effectiveness both with numerical simulations and with empirical analysis of real data; (iv) analysis of real data and data from simulations of an Agent Based Model, developed mainly by other partners of the project, to test the effectiveness of the proposed metrics and the new mechanisms of air traffic control. The methods used in the project are computational Agent Based Models, Complex Network Theory, and Data Science on air traffic data. ---------------------------------------- Fabrizio Lillo Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Bologna ITALY Personal website: fabriziolillo.wordpress.com University website: www.unibo.it/sitoweb/fabrizio.lillo <http://fabriziolillo.wordpress.com/> phone: +39 050509159
