Seminars in Florence: Magnanini and Iyer
by Luisa Andreis 15 Nov '21

15 Nov '21

Dear colleagues, we are pleased to invite you to the following two seminars (on site) on Wednesday, November 17, 2021, at the University of Florence. The room is the Aula Magna, building Morgagni 65 (ex Farmacologia), Viale Morgagni 65, 50134, Firenze. Time: 11:45-12:45 Speaker: Elena Magnanini, WIAS Berlin Title: LIMIT THEOREMS FOR THE EDGE DENSITY IN EXPONENTIAL RANDOM GRAPHS Abstract: In the present talk we focus on the derivation of some asymptotic properties for the family of exponential random graphs. This model can be seen as the generalization of the dense Erdӧs-Rényi random graph and follows the statistical mechanics approach of defining a Hamiltonian to weight the probability measure on the space of graphs, assigning higher mass to graphs with “desirable” properties. In particular our analysis will be focused on the edge-triangle model, a two-parameter family of exponential random graphs where the Hamiltonian only includes edge and triangle densities. We borrow tools from statistical mechanics together with large deviations techniques to obtain limit theorems for the edge density in the so-called replica symmetric regime, where the limiting free energy of the model is known together with a complete characterization of the phase diagram. First, we determine the asymptotic distribution of the edge density, as the graph size n tends to infinity, in the entire replica symmetric regime. In particular, we obtain a strong law of large numbers when the parameters are chosen outside the critical curve and the convergence to a mixture of Dirac measures whenever working on the critical curve. We then study the fluctuations of the edge density around its average for all parameter values outside the critical curve and off the critical point and we formulate conjectures about the behavior at criticality based on the analysis of a mean-field approximation of the model. Joint work with Alessandra Bianchi and Francesca Collet. Time: 14:15-15:15 Speaker: Tejas Iyer, WIAS Berlin Title: CONDENSATION IN PREFERENTIAL ATTACHMENT TREES WITH NEIGHBOURHOOD INFLUENCE Abstract: Motivated by the structure of complex networks such as the internet, we consider a growing model of preferential attachment trees with neighbourhood influence, where vertices arrive one at a time, are equipped with independent weights, and connect to existing vertices with probability proportional to their fitness function: a function of their own weight and the weights of their neighbours. In this model we prove almost sure limiting statements for the proportion of vertices with a given degree having weight belonging to a given measurable set, and the proportion of edges in the tree with endpoint belonging to a measurable set. We show that under certain conditions, the latter quantity demonstrates a condensation phenomenon, in which a positive proportion of edges in the network accumulate among those of weight that confers maximal reinforcement of fitness. Finally, we derive almost sure limiting statements for the log of the degree of a fixed vertex in this model, and prove that in this model the degree distribution behaves like a power law - a ubiquitous feature of many real-world complex networks. According to the current regulations to prevent the spread of Coronavirus the Green pass is mandatory to access the venue and contact tracing will be done.

Padova Seminars in Probability and Finance - Vittoria Silvestri (Roma, La Sapienza)
by Marco Formentin 15 Nov '21

15 Nov '21

Dear Colleagues, we would like to invite you to the following seminar  that will take place on November 26 at 14.30, at the Department of Mathematics “Tullio Levi-Civita”, University of Padova. The seminar may also be attended online via the Zoom platform. ________________________________________________________ Speaker: Vittoria Silvestri (Università di Roma La Sapienza)  Title: Planar aggregation with subcritical fluctuations and the Hastings-Levitov models  NOVEMBER 26 (Friday) - 14:30 In presence: room 2BC30, Torre Archimede, Via Trieste 63, Padova Online: Zoom link https://unipd.zoom.us/j/88496035657 (meeting ID 884 9603 5657) , available also on the webpage https://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/seminari/ Abstract: The ALE (Aggregate Loewner Evolution) models describe growing random clusters on the complex plane, built by iterated composition of random conformal maps. A striking feature of these models is that they can be used to define natural off-lattice analogues of several fundamental discrete models, such as Eden or Diffusion Limited Aggregation, by tuning the correlation between the defining maps appropriately. In this talk I will discuss shape theorems and fluctuations of ALE clusters, which include Hastings-Levitov clusters as particular cases, in the subcritical regime. Based on joint work with James Norris (Cambridge) and Amanda Turner (Lancaster). On behalf of the organizers, Marco Formentin

Politecnico di Milano - Seminario Ferraccioli
by Laura Maria Sangalli 15 Nov '21

15 Nov '21

Si avvisa che in data 25-11-2021, alle ore 14:00 precise, presso l'Aula Seminari "F. Saleri" VI piano, Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano, nell'ambito delle iniziative MOX, si svolgerà il seguente seminario: Relatore: Federico Ferraccioli, Università degli Studi di Padova Titolo: Eigen sign-flip test for semiparametric regression Sommario: In this seminar, a nonparametric test for semiparametric penalized regression models is presented. The test is based on random sign-flipping of an appropriate transformation of the vector of residuals, that exploits a spectral decomposition of the residualizing matrix associated with the nonparametric part of the model. The formulation allows for a wide applicability of the test to a vast class of extensively used semiparametric regression models, including for instance models based on univariate or multivariate splines. The good asymptotic properties of the proposed test are discussed, together with its good control of the Type I error and power, even in challenging data scenarios. Il seminario può essere seguito online dal seguente link: https://polimi-it.zoom.us/j/87179036436 Tutti gli interessati sono cordialmente invitati a partecipare, Laura Sangalli —— Laura Maria Sangalli MOX - Dipartimento di Matematica Politecnico di Milano Piazza Leonardo da Vinci 32 20133 Milano - Italy tel: +39 02 2399 4554 fax: +39 02 2399 4568 email: laura.sangalli(a)polimi.it url: http://mox.polimi.it/~sangalli

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 19 Novembre 2021, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Lorenzo Rosasco *(University of Genova & MIT) Title: *Interpolation and learning with scale dependent kernels* Abstract: We study the learning properties of nonparametric ridge-less least squares. In particular, we consider the common case of estimators defined by scale dependent (Matern) kernels, and focus on the role scale and smoothness. These estimators interpolate the data and the scale can be shown to control their stability to noise and sampling. Larger scales, corresponding to smoother functions, improve stability with respect to sampling. However, smaller scales, corresponding to more complex functions, improve stability to noise. We will discuss to which extent these results can explain the learning curves observed for large overparameterized models. Our analysis combines, probabilistic results with analytic techniques from interpolation theory. ------------------------------------------------ In ottemperanza alle norme anti Covid, per partecipare in presenza è necessario prenotarsi tramite il seguente form online: https://forms.gle/236nC7S6NrVwHzEm8 Sarà possibile seguire il seminario anche in streaming: Join Zoom Meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82967941062?pwd=RGpFUmY2YzdLS2VyMnJTeCt5ODFVZz09> Meeting ID: 829 6794 1062 Passcode: 846274 Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats Cordiali saluti, Pierpaolo De Blasi --- University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>

11 Nov '21

Seminario di Probabilità e Statistica Matematica Dipartimento di Matematica "Guido Castelnuovo" Sapienza Università di Roma Aula del Consiglio 16 novembre 2021, ore 14 Gérard Letac Institut de Mathématiques de Toulouse, Université Paul Sabatier Title: Duality of exponential families and large deviations Abstract: Two positive measures on the real line with exponential moments are duals if the derivatives of their log-Laplace transforms are inverse to each other. We link this property with real exponential families and large deviations. We compute the duals of many classical exponential families when they exist, like Tweedie, Morris, Mora families, and a family on the integers generated by the dilogarithm distribution. We extend the definition and the calculations to multivariate exponential families like Wishart and the simple quadratic families of Muriel Casalis.

10 Nov '21

Dear colleagues, we are happy to announce the hybrid - that is, in person with online streaming - talk of the (PMS)^2 series: Speaker: Luca Scarpa (Politecnico di Milano) Title: Variational methods for doubly nonlinear stochastic evolution equations. Abstract: We give an overview of some recent results for doubly nonlinear stochastic evolution equations in Hilbert spaces. In the first part of the talk we introduce the prototypes of the problems in consideration and we discuss the main existence results.Secondly, we provide alternative proofs of existence which rely on convex minimisation techniques, such as the Weighted-Energy-Dissipation (WED) and the Energy-Dissipation principles (EDP). Eventually, we discuss some current open problems, focusing above all on the direction of uniqueness-by-noise for doubly nonlinear evolutions. The works presented in the talk are based on joint collaborations with Prof. Ulisse Stefanelli (University of Vienna, Austria). Date and time: Monday November 15, 14:30-15:30 (Rome time zone). Place: Aula Seminari - III piano (third floor), Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, 32 – 20133 Milano - Ed. 14 “Nave” Campus Bonardi. (Accesso pedonale da: Via A.M. Ampère, 2 - Milano, Via E. Bonardi, 9 - Milano, Via G. Ponzio, 31 - Milano). Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2940008616 <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2940008616> This is a talk of the (PMS)^2: Pavia-Milano Seminar series on Probability and Mathematical Statistics organized jointly by the universities Milano-Bicocca, Pavia, Milano-Politecnico and Milano-Statale.
