seminario di Maurizia Rossi a Pavia

18 Nov '14

Cari colleghi, vi annuncio che giovedì 27 novembre, alle ore 14:30 precise, nell'aula Beltrami del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' di Pavia, la Dott. Maurizia ROSSI (Università di Roma Tor Vergata) terra' un seminario dal titolo *"Quantitative Central Limit Theorems for Nonlinear Functionals of RandomEigenfunctions on $\mathbb S^d$, $d\ge 2$".* Distinti saluti, Raffaella Carbone ----------------- *ABSTRACT* *We investigate Stein-Malliavin approximations for nonlinear functionals of geometric interest for random eigenfunctions on the unit d-dimensional sphere Sd, d ≥ 2. All our results are established in the high energy limit, i.e. as the corresponding eigenvalues diverge. In particular, we prove a quantitative Central Limit Theorem for the ex- cursion volume of Gaussian eigenfunctions; this goal is achieved by means of several results of independent interest, concerning the asymptotic analysis for the variance of moments of Gaussian eigenfunctions, the rates of convergence in various probability metrics for Hermite subordinated processes, and quantitative Central Limit Theo- rems for arbitrary polynomials of finite order or general, square-integrable, nonlinear transforms. Some related issues were already considered in the literature for the 2- dimensional case S2; our results are new or improve the existing bounds even in this special circumstances. Proofs are based on the asymptotic analysis of moments of all order for Gegenbauer polynomials, and make extensive use of the recent literature on so-called fourth-moment theorems by Nourdin and Peccati. This talk is based on the paper Stein-Malliavin Approximations for Nonlinear Func- tionals of Random Eigenfunctions on Sd, joint work with Domenico Marinucci.----------------* Raffaella Carbone, PhD Ricercatore di Probabilità e Statistica Matematica Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Pavia

17 Nov '14

Con preghiera di diffusione tra tutti i possibili interessati, scusandomi per invii multipli. Cordialmente, Giacomo Aletti -------------- Nell'ambito dei Reading Group Seminars e del Seminario di Matematica Applicata, il giorno lunedì 24 Novembre 2014, alle ore 14.30, nell'Aula C del Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Via C. Saldini, 50, Milano, "Multispecies models for large neural network description" Anna CATTANI, Center for Neuroscience and Cognitive Systems (CNCS), IIT, Rovereto Joint work with Claudio Canuto Abstract: Today modeling large neural network is a topic more relevant than ever. In particular, the set up of computer simulations describing complex networks with a huge number of nodes is a formidable challenge. The intrinsic difficulties concerning the prohibitive computational costs may be handled to some extent by exploiting what we call "multispecies" models. From a mathematical perspective this issue consists in formalizing the PDE-based continuum models which describe the high-density populations inside the network and studying interactions between them and the ODE-based discrete models for each neuron belonging to the low-density populations. In particular, we exploit such an approach to describe the Golgi-Granular cell loop network in the Cerebellum. Each single cell is described by means of the FitzHugh-Nagumo model and both electrical and chemical (excitatory and inhibitory) synapses are taken into account. Several simulations describing interesting phenomena as synchronization and travelling waves have been done. Biological aspects have also been examined in order to provide our work with scientific completeness.

Bicocca Winter School on SINGULAR STOCHASTIC PDEs
by Francesco Caravenna 14 Nov '14

14 Nov '14

RECENT BREAKTHROUGHS IN SINGULAR STOCHASTIC PDEs Bicocca Winter School (2-6 February 2015) The aim of this school is to present some recent breakthroughs in the theory of non-linear stochastic PDEs, that allow to give a rigorous meaning to some important singular equations for which classical methods fail, due to the irregularity of the noise. Examples include the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation in 1d, the equation of stochastic quantization in 3d, the parabolic Anderson model in 2d. The school is mainly targeted at PhD students and young researchers. There will be two mini-courses by Massimiliano Gubinelli (Université Paris Dauphine) and Lorenzo Zambotti (Université Pierre et Marie Curie), presenting different approaches but discussing analogous examples. The venue of the school is the Department of Mathematics and Applications of the University of Milano-Bicocca. For more information and for the registration, see the page: http://www.matapp.unimib.it/~fcaraven/spdes2015/ The Organizing Committee Francesco Caravenna, Federica Masiero, Gianmario Tessitore

Giovanni Jona-Lasinio Universita' La Sapienza Titolo: Macroscopic fluctuation theory: an introduction and some applications Martedi' 18 Novembre 2014 ORE 14:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre AULA 311 (SEMINARI) Abstract: The macroscopic fluctuation theory, proposed in collaboration with L. Bertini. A. De Sole, D. Gabrielli and C. Landim to study diffusive systems out of equilibrium, developed over the last decade into a powerful tool to solve concrete problems. After discussing the basic ideas I will illustrate some applications among which the existence of phase transitions in the behaviour of fluctuations. Of special interest are the fluctuations of the current in stationary states. New variational principles appear in the thermodynamics of non-equilibrium stationary states.

de Finetti risk seminar - november 2014
by Emanuela Rosazza 12 Nov '14

12 Nov '14

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the de Finetti Risk Seminars, we are glad to invite you to participate at the following Lectures at 16:30: Conditional systemic risk measures Thilo Meyer-Brandis (LMU Munich) ABSTRACT The financial crisis has demonstrated that systemic risk due to the interconnectedness of financial-market participants - such as financial institutions, insurers, governments and, even, regulators themselves - can dramatically amplify the consequences of isolated shocks to financial systems and pose a serious threat to prosperity and social stability.The traditional approach to risk control in financial mathematics is to apply risk measures to single institutions. However, this strategy fails to capture systemic risk because it treats institutions as if they were in isolation, and recent literature in financial mathematics has started to develop various approaches to rectify this deficiency. In this presentation we will axiomatically introduce and characterize risk-consistent conditional systemic risk measures. This class of conditional systemic risk measures is defined on multidimensional risks and consists of those conditional systemic risk measures which can be decomposed into a state-wise conditional aggregation and a univariate conditional risk measure. Our studies are based on the axiomatic characterization in [Chen et al., 2013] of a similar class of systemic risk measures in a finite state and unconditional framework. We argue in favor of a conditional framework on general probability spaces for assessing systemic risk. Moreover, we allow for very general aggregation rules, a less restrictive axiomatic setting, and thus a more flexible structure which covers many prominent examples of systemic risk measures from the literature and used in practice. Further, we will see how this type of systemic risk measures naturally arises when considering families of consistent conditional systemic risk measures and discuss some examples. at 18:00: Mathematical models for the formation of financial bubbles Francesca Biagini (LMU Munich) ABSTRACT The notion of an asset price bubble has two ingredients. One is the observed market price of a given financial asset, the other is the asset's intrinsic value, and the bubble is defined as the difference between the two. The intrinsic value, also called the fundamental value of the asset, is usually defined as the expected sum of future discounted dividends. In the first part of the talk we study a flow in the space of equivalent martingale measures and focus on the corresponding shifting perception of the fundamental value of a given asset in an incomplete financial marketmodel. This allows us to capture the birth of a perceived bubble and to describe it as an initial submartingale which then turns into a supermartingale before it falls back to its initial value zero. In the second part of the talk we examine the impact of overconfidence on bubbles formation in the framework of reduced-form models for credit risk. We assume that the wealth associated to a defaultable asset may be strongly affected by the trading activity of overconfident investors, who believe the asset to be safe and provoke an alteration of its estimated value. Since the value process changes under this influence, the underlying pricing measure has also to readapt determining a switch in the space of the equivalent martingale measures. In this way we provide a constructive approach to explain bubbles formation as well as motivate a dynamics in the space of equivalent martingale measures at micro-economic level. LOCATION: The seminar will be held on Wednesday, November 19, starting from 16.30, Aula di rappresentanza, Dept. of Mathematics, Milano University, Via C. Saldini 50, Milano. A refreshment will be offered at 17.30. Scientific Committee: Prof. Marco Frittelli (Univ. degli Studi di Milano) Prof. Fabio Maccheroni (Univ. Bocconi) Prof. Massimo Marinacci (Univ.
