Nadia Oudjane September 9th, 11h CET at Bologna, Aula Vitali and Online

08 Sep '25

Dear colleagues, I am glad to advertise that next Tuesday, September 9th, at 11h Nadia Oudjane (Electricité de France, Paris, EDF) will give a talk Mathematical tools to manage distributed flexibilities in power systems. in Aula Vitali, Dipartimento di Matematica in Piazza di Porta San Donato 5 in Bologna and on-line https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_NzA3NGMzN2EtODcyMC00… Abstract: With the massive integration of renewable energies (photovoltaic (PV) and wind power) into the power grid, new uncertainties are impacting the power balance. At the same time, advances in « smart » technologies and batteries offer new flexibilities with the possibility of controlling the consumption of a large number of electrical appliances (electric vehicle recharging, heat pumps, etc.). In this framework, a major technical challenge is to optimize the management of this large number of heterogeneous flexibilities distributed across the network to help in balancing the system. This constitutes a large scale optimization problem under uncertainties, which can benefit from mean-field approximations. Thanks for sharing with those who might be interested, the organisers Cristina Di Girolami and Elena Bandini https://seminari.dm.unibo.it/mat

International conference in Venice on Emerging Global Financial Systems - Programme
by Monica Billio 01 Sep '25

01 Sep '25

24th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE C.r.e.d.i.t. 2025 *Emerging Global Financial Systems: Exploring Polarization, Systemic Risks, Innovation, and Sustainable Solutions * Venice, Italy 25 – 26 September 2025 *GRETA Associati*(Venice, Italy), *CRIF* (Bologna, Italy), *European Datawarehouse* (Frankfurt, Germany), and *Intesa Sanpaolo *(Milan, Italy) are partners in organising a Conference to be held in Venice on September 25-26, 2025. The C.r.e.d.i.t. 2025 conference will bring together academics, practitioners and PhD students working in various areas of financial and socio-economic risk with the aim of creating a unique opportunity for participants to discuss research progress and policy as well as industry-relevant insights and directions for future research. The C.r.e.d.i.t. 2025 is the *twenty-fourth* in a series of events dedicated to various aspects of risk and organised under the auspices of: the *Department of Economics* and *VERA *- *Venice centre in Economic and Risk Analytics for public policies* - of the *Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Joint Research Center European Commission*, *ABI - Italian Banking Association*, and*Venice Sustainability Foundation*. Sustainability necessitates a global perspective, requiring the adaptation of contemporary business and societal models to navigate the dynamic landscape of the future. Policymakers and society must ensure that resources, particularly technology, are utilized responsibly and efficiently to enhance the well-being of both present and future generations while cultivating a harmonious relationship with the environment. This strategy is vital in addressing sustainability issues such as poverty, environmental degradation, pollution, and inequality. Effective global risk management is vital for bridging divisions and fragmentation through innovation. *PROGRAMME* *Thursday, September 25, 2025* _08.30 - 09.00REGISTRATION_ _09.00 - 09.30WELCOME AND OPENING REMARKS_ Monica Billio, Ca' Foscari University of Venice Andrew W.

MINI-COURSE "Interacting Particle Systems on Random Graphs" by Frank Den Hollander, IMT Lucca, 21-23 October 2025
by luca.avena＠unifi.it 30 Aug '25

30 Aug '25

Dear colleagues, I am glad to advertise the following minicourse intended for young researchers, PhD and Master students: LECTURER: Prof. Dr. W.T.F. den Hollander, Leiden University (The Netherlands), and visiting professor from this year both at NETWORKS Research Unit, IMT Lucca as well as at DIMAI , University of Florence. MINICOURSE TITLE: Interacting Particle Systems on Random Graphs LOCATION: IMT School of Advanced Studies Lucca, Piazza San Francesco 19, 55100 Lucca (Italy) PERIOD: 21-23/10/2025 ABSTRACT: The goal of this mini course is to sketch what is known and not known about interacting particle systems on random graphs, highlight the role of sparse versus dense graphs, exhibit the relevant time scales for critical phenomena and identify how these depend on the size of the graph, list some open problems and indicate some lines of future research. After reviewing the generic properties of interacting particle systems on regular lattices, specific models on two classes of random graphs will be considered: Configuration Models and Erdos-Renyi random graphs. The course is organized in three lectures: - Lecture 1. Background and motivation for Interacting Particle Systems on d-dimensional lattices. Phase transitions and critical phenomena. Key questions and core tools. - Lecture 2. Stochastic Ising Model. - Lecture 3. Voter Model & Contact Process. Reference: F. Capannoli, F. den Hollander, Interacting particle systems on random graphs, Ensaios Mat. 40 (2024) 117-176 (https://doi.org/10.21711/217504322024/em402) See https://networks.imtlucca.it/networks-lecture-series for more information.

Postdoc Opportunity: Generative AI for Financial Market Modelling
by Juho Kanniainen (TAU) 13 Aug '25

13 Aug '25

TUNI Luottamuksellinen - Confidential (3Y) Dear all, We are offering a postdoctoral position to work on generative AI for financial market modelling in a Nasdaq Nordic Foundation-funded project at Tampere University, Data Science Research Center, Finland. The project focuses on developing AI-based methods for spoofing detection and optimal execution in high-frequency trading within Limit Order Book (LOB) markets. As LOB data is inherently sequential, generative token-based methods are especially promising for modeling and forecasting LOB dynamics. The models developed in this project are also suited for counterfactual and interventional what-if scenarios, enabling analysis of what might have happened or what could happen under changing conditions. Professors Alexandros Iosifidis<https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandrosiosifidis/> and Juho Kanniainen<https://www.linkedin.com/in/juho-kanniainen-771b99/> have been pioneers in developing low-latency machine learning models for Limit Order Book (LOB) driven financial markets. With our international collaborators, we have published in top-tier AI journals and are among the most cited researchers in this field. Join us at the forefront of AI research in financial market modelling! 📌 More information and application: https://tuni.rekrytointi.com/paikat/?o=A_A&jid=2753 📅 Deadline: 25 August 2025 For inquiries, please contact: Professor Juho Kanniainen, juho.kanniainen(a)tuni.fi<mailto:juho.kanniainen@tuni.fi> Please include Post-Doc/Nasdaq Foundation – First Name Last Name in the subject line of your email. Best regards, Juho Kanniainen
