You can find the calendar for the upcoming seminars at this link<https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar/future-seminars> (next dates: May 14, May 21). We hope to see many of you online! Luisa and Roger ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: One World Probability <ow.probability(a)gmail.com<mailto:ow.probability@gmail.com>> Date: Sun, May 4, 2025 at 9:58 PM Subject: Next OWPS this Wednesday To: <owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk<mailto:owps@lists.bath.ac.uk>> The next OWPS will be on Wednesday, May 7, from 13:00 to 15:00 UTC time Speakers: Matthew Kahle<https://matthewkahle.org/> (Ohio State University), András Mészáros<https://users.renyi.hu/~meszaros/> (Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics) Title, abstract and the zoom link are below the signature and can be found on the website https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar. Upcoming seminars<https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar/future-seminars>: May 14: Matteo Quattropani (Roma Tre University), Federico Sau (University of Milan) May 21: Eleanor Archer (Dauphine-PSL Paris), Anita Winter (Duisburg-Essen University) ----------------------- Introduction to determinantal random hypertrees Matthew Kahle (Ohio State University) Abstract: A hypertree is a simplicial complex that serves as a higher-dimensional analogue of a tree. We will discuss a natural model of random hypertree, inspired by enumerative work of Kalai and probabilistic work of Lyons. This model is a higher-dimensional analogue of a uniform spanning tree on a complete graph. In this talk, we will take some time to carefully motivate and define the model, and then to discuss some of its probabilistic properties. Finally, we will overview some results of Andrew Newman's and mine about the basic properties of 2-dimensional determinantal random hypertrees. In particular, we will discuss torsion in homology and hyperbolicity of the fundamental group. I will not assume any topological prerequisites, and will aim to make the talk as self contained as possible. Determinantal hypertrees and graph limits András Mészáros (Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics) Abstract: We discuss how graph limit theory can provide us with useful tools to understand random simplicial complexes. Extendending the result of Grimmett on the local weak limit of uniform random spanning trees of complete graphs, we describe the local weak limit of determinantal hypertrees. Relying on the large deviation principle for the Erdős–Rényi random graph by Chatterjee and Varadhan, we give an upper bound on the mod 2 homology of 2-dimensional determinantal hypertrees. If time permits, we discuss conjectures on the distribution of the p-torsion of the first integral homology group of 2-dimensional determinantal hypertrees. https://polimi-it.zoom.us/j/92945513591?pwd=zjtRwpHoO9kRyQuPPj4o186jXrvg1v.1 Meeting ID: 92945513591 Passcode: 131676

Save the date: OWABI@BioInference2025 - 29th May 10am UK time
by Massimiliano Tamborrino 07 May '25

07 May '25

Dear all, the next OWABI www.warwick.ac.uk/owabi<http://www.warwick.ac.uk/owabi> is going to be quite special, consisting of two selected talks livestreamed from BioInference 2025 (https://bioinference.github.io/2025/) a conference on mathematical modelling and inference on (broadly speaking) biological system. The seminars will be on Thursday the 29th May, at 10am UK time (note the different time with respect to previous seminars), given by * Andrew Golightly (Durham University), Accelerating Bayesian inference for stochastic epidemic models using incidence data * Henrik Häggström (Chalmers University), Simulation-based inference for stochastic nonlinear mixed-effects models with applications in systems biology with abstracts reported below. The talks will be streamed on the OWABI MS Team Channel<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3AdhZ_4e_XLNJzCXPAMzTvT6BZ5KShEETkd_w…> <https://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3AdhZ_4e_XLNJzCXPAMzTvT6BZ5KShEETkd_w…> , at the link https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3adhZ_4e_XLNJzCXPAMzTvT6BZ5KSh… Meeting ID: 323 917 219 730 3 Passcode: Fk9JG3eB 1st OWABI Talk: 10-10.30am UK time Speaker: Andrew Golightly<https://www.durham.ac.uk/staff/andrew-golightly/> (Durham University) Title: Accelerating Bayesian inference for stochastic epidemic models using incidence data Abstract: This work considers the case of performing Bayesian inference for stochastic epidemic compartment models, using incomplete time course data consisting of incidence counts that are either the number of new infections or removals in time intervals of fixed length. The most natural Markov jump process representation of the model is eschewed for reasons of computational efficiency, and replaced by a stochastic differential equation representation. This is further approximated to give a tractable Gaussian process, that is, the linear noise approximation (LNA). Unless the observation model linking the LNA to data is both linear and Gaussian, the observed data likelihood remains intractable. Unlike previous approaches that use the LNA in this setting, two approaches for marginalising over the latent process are considered: a correlated pseudo-marginal method and analytic marginalisation via a Gaussian approximation of the noise model. These approaches are compared using synthetic data with the best performing method applied to real data consisting of removal incidence of Oak Processionary moth nests in Richmond Park, London. 2nd Seminar: 10.30-11am UK time Speaker: Henrik Häggström<https://research.chalmers.se/en/person/henhagg> (Chalmers University) Title: Simulation-based inference for stochastic nonlinear mixed-effects models with applications in systems biology Abstract: We propose a novel methodology for Bayesian inference in hierarchical mixed-effects models. By building on our work [1], we construct a simulation-based inference (SBI) framework that is highly scalable, where amortized approximations to the likelihood and the parameters posterior are first obtained, and these are rapidly refined for each individual dataset, to ultimately approximate the parameters posterior across many individuals. Unlike the current state-of-art SBI methods, which use neural networks, our approximations are expressed via Gaussian mixture models, leading to easily trainable, parsimonious yet expressive surrogate models of both the likelihood function and the posterior distribution. The methodology is exemplified via stochastic differential equation mixed-effects models to describe translation kinetics after mRNA transfection, however the methodology is general and can accommodate other types of stochastic and deterministic models. We compare our approximate inference with exact pseudomarginal inference and show that our methodology is fast and competitive. We are looking forward to seeing you at the next OWABI seminar(s), best, Massimiliano on the behalf of the OWABI Organisers ------ Dr. Massimiliano Tamborrino Reader (Associate Professor) and WIHEA Fellow Department of Statistics University of Warwick https://warwick.ac.uk/tamborrino

Seminario Wojciech Górecki - Politecnico di Milano - 12 Maggio 2025
by Luca Scarpa 06 May '25

06 May '25

Si segnala il seguente seminario a tutti gli interessati. Lunedì 12 Maggio 2025, ore 11:00. Aula Seminari III Piano, Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano. Speaker: Wojciech Górecki, Università di Pavia. Title: Fundamental bounds for the metrology of open quantum systems. Abstract. Quantum mechanics allows for enhanced measurement precision beyond classical limits by harnessing entanglement and/or long-time coherence. However, these resources are highly sensitive to noise, making their use in open quantum systems particularly challenging. At the same time, optimizing metrological protocolsกชanalytically or numericallyกชbecomes increasingly difficult as system size and measurement complexity grow. Nonetheless, for quantum systems governed by a master equation, it is possible to derive fundamental, protocol-independent bounds on achievable precision. These bounds provide an objective benchmark to assess existing strategies and identify potential for improvement. In this seminar, I will present these fundamental bounds, first introduced by A. Fujiwara and H. Imai and later extended by R. Demkowicz-Dobrzaจฝski, S. Zhou, L. Jiang, among others. I will illustrate the framework through examples involving interferometry and cavity parameter estimation under photon loss, with particular attention to critical metrology and continuous measurement in the steady-state regime.

Castelnuovo di Sapienza Università di Roma *Andrea Rinaldo (École Polytechnique Fédérale Lausanne & Università di Padova)Clima, acqua, malattie e solidarietá nel mondo che cambia* Sommario Il clima sta cambiando rapidamente. Dobbiamo farlo anche noi, non considerando scontati privilegi consolidati dal tempo, usi e tradizioni dei luoghi, organizzazioni politiche e sociali, e le espressioni della sensibilità collettiva. Serviranno letture attente del governo dell’acqua, riflettendo su Ambiente naturale e costruito intorno a noi, e ripensamenti del rapporto fra risorse e solidarietà, e sui modi e i tempi della giustizia distributiva nella gestione delle risorse idriche. La mia tesi: i grandi temi di salvaguardia legati al governo dell’acqua, e dunque alla metastoria, riguardano sia il Nord che del Sud del mondo, e ci obbligano a riflettere sulla relazione fra trasformazioni del paesaggio, usi del suolo e dinamica delle risorse naturali, ma anche su un’etica dello sviluppo che tenga conto di un’equa distribuzione dei privilegi e delle risorse. Il seminario si propone in particolare di evidenziare il filo rosso che lega la descrizione matematica di processi idrologici ed epidemiologici, e della geometria della natura nel paesaggio fluviale, a temi centrali nella valutazione della ricchezza e della povertà delle nazioni e nella economia ambientale contemporanea.
