Seminario di Probabilita` a Roma1
by Faggionato, Alessandra 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

Tuesday 29.01.2019 at 2 p.m. (sharp) Aula di Consiglio, Department of Mathematics, University La Sapienza Speaker: Andrey Piatnitski (Arctic University of Norway, Russian Academy of Sciences) Title: Stochastic homogenization of zero order convolution type operators. Abstract. The talk will focus on homogenization problem for a family of zero order non-local convolution type operators that satisfy proper moment and ellipticity conditions. Under the assumptions that the coefficients of these operators are statistically homogeneous and ergodic we show that the family converges to a second order elliptic differential operator with constant coefficients. -- Thanks Best Alessandra ************************************************* Prof. Alessandra Faggionato http://www1.mat.uniroma1.it/~faggionato/ Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome Office 5, Phone (0039) 06 49913252 *************************************************

********************************************************************* SEMINARI DI PROBABILITA' E STATISTICA MATEMATICA DIPARTIMENTO DI MATEMATICA "G. PEANO" UNIVERSITA' DEGLI STUDI DI TORINO ********************************************************************* Giovedì 7 Febbraio 2019 alle ore 15:00 in Aula S presso il Dipartimento di Matematica "G. Peano" dell'Università degli Studi di Torino, Via Carlo Alberto 10, Il Prof. *Gianni Pagnini* (BCAM – Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, Bilbao, Spain) terrà un seminario dal titolo *Convergence of linear superposition of Langevin-driven Brownian particles **to the fractional Brownian motion* Abstract: A heterogeneous ensemble of Brownian particles governed by the Langevin equation is considered. The heterogeneity of the ensemble is characterised by a population of friction coefficients. When the frequency histogram of the friction coefficients decreases with a proper power-law, the linear superposition of these Brownian trajectories converges to the fractional Brownian motion. This construction of the fractional Brownian motion provides a dynamical framework that allows for physical perspectives. In this respect, this results is first connected with the so-called generalized gray Brownian motion and later the application for modelling anomalous diffusion in biological systems is discussed. The first part of the seminar is based on a research in collaboration with Mirko D'Ovidio whose results are still work in progress, and the second part is based on: M. D'Ovidio, S. Vitali, V. Sposini, O. Sliusarenko, P. Paradisi, G. Castellani, G.

Workshop "The Geometry of Random Fields" Tor Vergata
by Domenico Marinucci 18 Jan '19

18 Jan '19

Cari Colleghi Venerdì 25 gennaio si terrà presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Roma Tor Vergata (Aula D'Antoni) il mini-workshop "The Geometry of Random Fields"; il programma è il seguente: 9.30-10.15 Dmitry Belyaev (Oxford University) Geometry of smooth Gaussian fields and percolation Abstract: Gaussian fields and their level sets are of significant mathematical interest, but they also appear in many other areas of science: oceanography, cosmology and engineering, just to name a few. In this talk I will give an gently introduction to the geometric theory of smooth Gaussian fields, will discuss conjectures about their connection with percolation models and will talk about recent progress in this area. 10.15-11.00 Igor Wigman (King's College London) Points on nodal lines with given direction Abstract: We study of the directional distribution function of nodal lines for eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a planar domain. This quantity counts the number of points where the normal to the nodal line points in a given direction. We give upper bounds for the flat torus, and compute the expected number for arithmetic random waves. 11.00-11.30 Coffee Break 11.30-12.15 Anne Estrade (Université Paris Descartes) On Berry's dislocation lines in 3D framework Abstract: We study the length of dislocation lines that are given as nodal lines of a complex Gaussian random wave indexed by $\R^3$. We consider random waves that are eigenfunction of the 3D Euclidean Laplacian, isotropically distributed or not. We are particularly interested in the expectation and the variance of the length and their behavior as the associated eigenvalue goes to infinity. We compare the results with the similar situation in 2D that has been extensively studied since Berry's paper in 2002. This is a work in progress with Federico Dalmao and Jose Leon (Universidad de la Republica, Uruguay). 12.15- 13.00 Maurizia Rossi (Università di Pisa) Title: Nodal lengths of random spherical harmonics. Abstract: Random spherical harmonics are Gaussian eigenfunctions of the spherical Laplacian; in this talk we study the geometry of their excursion sets, in particular the high-energy behavior of their boundary length. For the nodal case we show that the length is asymptotically equivalent, in the L^2-sense, to the sample trispectrum, obtaining as a by-product a quantitative Central Limit Theorem for it. The length at non-zero level, being asymptotically equivalent to the (random) norm of the eigenfunction, is proved to be Gaussian and independent of the nodal length in the high-energy limit. Removing the effect of the eigenfunctions norm (which play no role in the nodal case indeed) we prove that the partial correlation between nodal and boundary lengths is asymptotically one. This talk is based on joint works with D. Marinucci and I. Wigman.

Seminario di Yinon Spinka a Roma Tre il 18/01/19 ore 11:30

SEMINARIO Speaker: Yinon Spinka Title: Finitely-dependent processes are finitary Venerdi' 18 Gennaio 2019 ORE 11:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 - Pal.C Aula 211 Abstract: Consider a translation-invariant process $X$ indexed by $mathbb{Z}^d$. Suppose that $X$ is finitely-dependent in the sense that its restrictions to sets which are sufficiently separated (at least some fixed distance apart) are independent. We are concerned with the following question: How "close" is $X$ to being an i.i.d. process? One natural notion of closeness, called block factor, was suggested by Ibragimov and Linnik over 50 years ago. It took roughly 30 years until Burton, Goulet and Meester constructed an example which showed that this notion is too strong. That is, $X$ may not be close to being i.i.d. in this sense. We show that $X$ is close in a slightly weaker sense -- it is a finitary factor of an i.i.d. process. This means that $X=F(Y)$ for some i.i.d. process $Y$ and some measurable map F which commutes with translations of $mathbb{Z}^d$, and moreover, that in order to determine the value of $X_v$ for a given $v$, one only needs to look at a finite (but random) region of $Y$. The result extends to finitely-dependent processes indexed by the vertex set of any transitive amenable graph.

Seminario di Luca Avena a Roma Tre il 15/01/19 ore 11:30

08 Jan '19

SEMINARIO Luca Avena (Leiden University, NL) Martedi' 15 Gennaio 2019 ORE 11:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 - Pal.C - Aula 211 Titolo: Mixing time on dynamic configuration model Abstract: We are interested in understanding the mixing time (i.e. the time to reach equilibrium) for a discrete-time random walk moving on a network changing over time in a random fashion. To this aim, we consider a specific model where the underlying evolving network has n vertices, it is initially sampled from the so-called configuration model (a random graph ensemble with a prescribed vertex-degree sequence) and at each time-unit a given fraction of the edge set is randomly rewired. We characterize the mentioned mixing-time for a random walk without backtracking as a function of the fraction of rewired edges. This work extends to a dynamic setup previous works on random walks on static random graphs. In particular, we show that the mixing-time is speeded-up by the presence of the edge-rewiring dynamics and depending on whether such a dynamics is slow, moderate or fast, we show the presence of so-called cutoff , half-cutoff, or absence of cutoff, respectively.

seminario Feireisl presso Scuola Normale Superiore
by Franco Flandoli 06 Jan '19

06 Jan '19

*mercoledì 9 gennaio 2019* ore 11:00 *Scuola Normale Superiore* Pisa Aula Mancini *Eduard Feireisl* *(Institute of Mathematics of the Czech Academy of Sciences)* Terrà un seminario dal titolo: *“**Semiflow selection for the compressible Euler system**” * *Abstract:* *Using the methods of the theory of Markov semigroups, we show the existence of a Borel measurable solution semiflow for the isentropic Euler system in the multidimensional setting. Solutions are understood as time dependent trajectories of the basic state variables - the mass density, the linear momentum, and the energy - in a suitable phase space. The underlying system of PDE's is satisfied in a generalized sense. The solution semiflow enjoys the standard semigroup properties and the solutions coincide with the strong solutionsof the isentropic Euler system as long as the latter exists. Moreover, * *they minimize the energy (maximize the energy dissipation) among all generalized solutions. **(joint work with D.Breit and M.Hofmanova)* Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
