Dear all,
we are pleased to announce the following seminar at the University of Pavia.
--------------------------------------------------------
*Speaker*: Shui Feng, McMaster University
*Title*: Asymptotic Results Associated with Dirichlet Process and
Hierarchical Dirichlet Process
*When*: Wed July 30, 14:30
*Where*: Aula Beltrami. Department of Mathematics. Via A. Ferrata 5, Pavia
*Zoom link*: https://unipv-it.zoom.us/j/96274780759
*Abstract*: Dirichlet Process and Hierarchical Dirichlet Process are
important priors in the analysis of clustered data and data groups. In this
talk we will present asymptotic results including law of large numbers,
central limit theorems, and large deviations for the Dirichlet posterior
and the hierarchical Dirichlet process. These results reflect naturally the
differences between frequentist and Bayesian statistics.

Best wishes,
Emanuele Dolera, Stefano Favaro, Claudia Contardi

Dear colleagues,
The math laboratory in Angers (https://math.univ-angers.fr/) will open a
PhD position in September 2025. Candidates are expected to start the PhD
in October or November 2025 (so, one or two months after the candidature).
I am willing to support applications of students interested in working
in integrable probability and integrable equations; the precise project
will be discussed and adapted to the scientific background of the
candidates. Could you please forward to potentially interested students?
They can look at my website
(https://sites.google.com/view/mattiacafasso) if they want to get an
idea about my scientific interests, and write to me for more information.
Have a nice summer!
Mattia

Subject: [IHP Semester] 2027
Dear Colleague,
It is our pleasure to announce the semester program at IHP, Paris, April 19 to
July 9, 2027, on High Dimensional Probability and Analysis, Continuous and
Discrete.
The semester will be running
- 2 schools (April 19-23 (introductory), June 14-18)
- 2 workshops (May 10-14, July 5-9)
- Working groups in the intervals between schools and workshops.
Funding is unfortunately rather limited at the moment. At this stage we would
like to know if you would be interested and potentially willing to participate.
This is a preliminary gauging of interest for planning purposes. Formal
application procedure is to follow.
In the case you're interested in participating, please let us know:
- For how long could you potentially come? (include precise dates if possible)
- Would you be able to support your own visit through grant(s) or is financial
support needed? (as mentioned earlier money is an issue)
Please bring this semester to the attention of young people.
Sincerely yours,
Cyril Roberto on behalf of the organizers

Dear colleagues,
On 17 July 2025 at 2pm (CET), Sara Merino Aceituno, (Faculty of
Mathematics, University of Vienna, Austria) will present an online seminar
whose title is:
Large particle limit for jump processes
Abstract: In this short course, we will study interacting particle systems
whose dynamics are governed either by continuous-time Markov processes
(such as coagulation models) or piecewise deterministic Markov processes
(such as run-and-tumble dynamics). Our starting point will be the
martingale formulation of these systems. The primary objective is to derive
equations that approximate the behavior of the system as the number of
particles becomes large.
The seminar link is: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/87312544260
This is the third and last seminar of a series of three seminars organised
by UMI-PRISMA on the Applications of Probability to Economics in
preparation to the 2025 Summer School of Mathematics for Economic and
Social Sciences: https://indico.sns.it/event/105/overview
The previous seminars were:
on 26 June 2025, Marta Leocata (LUISS Guido Carli, Department of AI, Data
and Decision Sciences) Two applications of multi-agent models in economic
and social systems
on 10 July 2025, Annamaria Olivieri, (University of Parma (Italy),
Department of Economics and Management) Modelling Stochastic Mortality for
Life Insurance Applications
Everybody is welcome to join the seminar!
