Mini corso Prof. Luciano Campi
by Luca di persio 20 May '14

20 May '14

Il Prof. Luciano Campi[ London School of Economics ] sarà ospite del Dipartimento di Informatica dell’Università di Verona [ Strada le Grazie, 15 - Vr ] nei giorni dal 26 al 30 Maggio 2014 e terrà un mini corso dal titolo ” *A primer on stochastic control and portfolio optimization* “ *Abstract*: We will give a short introduction to stochastic control in continuous time with some applications to optimal investment problems. In particular, after giving some examples of control problem which are relevant in finance and insurance, we will turn to the dynamic programming principle (DPP), which is the main tool to obtain the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) partial differential equation describing the local behaviour of the value function. Under some regularity conditions, solving this HJB pde gives a method to find (at least theoretically) the optimal solution. We will apply this approach to solve some problems of optimal investment, e.g. the classic Merton problem of optimal investment and consumption. articolato in tre lezioni che si terranno presso il Dipartimento stesso nei giorni di - Lunedì 26 Maggio [ Aula D, 14:30-16:30 ] - Martedì 27 [ Aula F, 14:30-16:30 ] - Mercoledì 28 Maggio [ Aula D , 14:30-16:30 ] Per informazioni contattare: luca.dipersio(a)univr.it __ Luca Di Persio - PhD assistant professor of Probability and Mathematical Finance Dept.

Christian Brownlees Department of Economics and Business, Universita' Pompeu Fabra terra' un seminario dal titolo: Nets: Network Estimation for Time Series il giorno 20 maggio 2014 alle ore 14.30 presso l'aula Fanfani, quinto piano del Dipartimento MEMOTEF, Facolta' di Economia, Sapienza Universita' di Roma, Viale del Castro Laurenziano 9. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare Segue abstract in calce Lea Petrella Abstract: This work proposes novel network analysis techniques for multivariate time series. We define the network of a multivariate time series as a graph where vertices denote the components of the process and edges denote non--zero long run partial correlations. We then introduce a two step LASSO procedure, called NETS, to estimate high--dimensional sparse Long Run Partial Correlation networks. This approach is based on a VAR approximation of the process and allows to decompose the long run linkages into the contribution of the dynamic and contemporaneous dependence relations of the system. The large sample properties of the estimator are analysed and we establish conditions for consistent selection and estimation of the non-zero long run partial correlations. The methodology is illustrated with an application to a panel of U.S. bluechips -- **************************************************** Prof. Lea Petrella Memotef Department Sapienza University of Rome http://geostasto.eco.uniroma1.it/utenti/petrella *****************************************************

Seminario di G. Giacomin a Milano-Bicocca (21.05.2014)

Mercoledì 21 maggio 2014 alle ore 11:00, nell'aula 3014 del Dipartimento di Matematica e Applicazioni dell'Università di Milano-Bicocca (edificio U5, via Cozzi 55, Milano), Giambattista Giacomin (Université Paris Diderot) terrà un seminario dal titolo NOISE INDUCED RHYTHMIC PHENOMENA Trovate il sommario di seguito. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Francesco Caravenna %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Sommario: Large families of noisy interacting units (cells, individuals, components in a circuit, ...) exhibiting synchronization often exhibit oscillatory behaviors too. This is a well established empirical observation that has attracted a remarkable amount of attention, notably in life sciences, because of the central role played by internally generated rhythmic behaviors. This modeling effort has produced a number of elementary models that seem to capture the essence, or at least some essential features, of this phenomenon, but the mathematical analysis turns out to be very challenging. The talk will focus on the mathematical results that can be established for a class of elementary models and this will be the mean to discuss open problems and to approach the intriguing issue of why noise appears to be a crucial ingredient. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -- _________________________________________ Francesco Caravenna Dipartimento di Matematica e Applicazioni Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca Via Cozzi 55, 20125 Milano, Italy http://www.matapp.unimib.it/~fcaraven/ _________________________________________

Il 21 Maggio alle ore 10.30 presso l'aula 003 dell'edificio D4 del Polo delle Scienze Sociali in Via delle Pandette a Firenze Giovanni Puccetti - Università degli Studi di Firenze - terrà un talk su Risk Aggregation and Model Uncertainty: some messages from the methodological front Abstract: We review and discuss some of the most recent mathematical achievements in the field of Risk Aggregation and Model Uncertainty and we discuss their implications on the current Basel regulatory framework, with particular emphasis on VaR/ES risk measurement. Specific issues that will be handled: - How much superadditive can VaR be? - What are the likely constraints with moving from VaR to ES? - Which kind of dependence is implied by a worst-VaR scenario? - What are the available tools to capture the model uncertainty associated with a joint risk position? Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
