Reminder and Zoom link - Seminario Padova - Michele Salvi - 17 Dicembre 13:30
by Alberto Chiarini 16 Dec '24

16 Dec '24

Buongiorno a tutti, Vi scriviamo per ricordarvi che domani (17 Dicembre) in aula 2AB40 (Torre Archimede, Università di Padova) ci sarà un seminario per il ciclo di seminari in Probabilità e Finanza di Michele Salvi. Il seminario sarà offerto anche su Zoom al seguente link: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/88514269669?pwd=UB59oHI2dFNXHty9G0adYmIaanVkSe.1 Meeting ID: 885 1426 9669 Passcode: 345302 ------------------------------------------------- Michele Salvi (Università di Roma Tor Vergata) https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~salvi/ Title: Random spanning trees in random environment Date: December 17, 2024, at 13:30, room 2AB40 Abstract: A spanning tree of a graph G is a connected subset of G without cycles. The Uniform Spanning Tree (UST) is obtained by choosing one of the possible spanning trees of G at random. The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) is realised instead by putting random weights on the edges of G and then selecting the spanning tree with the smallest weight. These two models exhibit markedly different behaviours: for example, their diameter on the complete graph with n nodes transitions from n^1/2 for the UST to n^1/3 for the MST. What lies in between? We introduce a model of Random Spanning Trees in Random Environment (RSTRE) designed to interpolate between UST and MST. In particular, when the environment disorder is sufficiently low, the RSTRE on the complete graph has a diameter of n^1/2 as the UST. Conversely, when the disorder is high, the diameter behaves like n^1/3 as for the MST. We conjecture a smooth transition between these two values for intermediate levels of disorder. This talk is based on joint work with Rongfeng Sun and Luca Makowiec (NUS Singapore). Vi aspettiamo numerosi!

talk Giulia Di Nunno - January 8, 2025
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 16 Dec '24

16 Dec '24

Dear all, you are all invited to participate to the following seminar on *Wednesday 8th of January 2025 at 16:00* in Aula Seminari Demografica 2062 at University of Milano Bicocca (via degli Arcimboldi 8, Milano - building U7, 2nd floor): Speaker: *Giulia Di Nunno* (University of Oslo) Titolo: Utility maximisation and change of variable formulas for time-changed dynamics Abstract: We target the problem of expected utility maximisation of the terminal wealth in a semimartingale setting, where the semimartingale is written in terms of a time-changed Brownian motion and a finite variation process. As for the time-change we consider a general increasing stochastic process with finitely many jumps. To tackle this problem we present change of variable formulas for stochastic integrals w.r.t. the time-changed Brownian motion and we use techniques of enlargement of filtrations. The focus is on power and logarithmic utility. The presentation is based on joint work with Hannes Haferkorn (Commerzbank), Asma Khedher (U. Amsterdam), and Michèle Vanmaele (U. Ghent). Best wishes, Emanuela ****************************************** Emanuela Rosazza Gianin Dipartimento di Statistica e Metodi Quantitativi Università di Milano-Bicocca e-mail: emanuela.rosazza1(a)unimib.it ******************************************

Seminario Padova - Michele Salvi - 17 Dicembre 13:30
by Alberto Chiarini 13 Dec '24

13 Dec '24

Buongiorno a tutti, Vorremmo segnalarvi che martedì prossimo (17 Dicembre) in aula 2BC30 (Torre Archimede, Università di Padova) ci sarà un seminario per il ciclo di seminari in Probabilità e Finanza di: Michele Salvi (Università di Roma Tor Vergata) https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~salvi/ Title: Random spanning trees in random environment Date: December 17, 2024, at 13:30, room 2AB40 Abstract: A spanning tree of a graph G is a connected subset of G without cycles. The Uniform Spanning Tree (UST) is obtained by choosing one of the possible spanning trees of G at random. The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) is realised instead by putting random weights on the edges of G and then selecting the spanning tree with the smallest weight. These two models exhibit markedly different behaviours: for example, their diameter on the complete graph with n nodes transitions from n^1/2 for the UST to n^1/3 for the MST. What lies in between? We introduce a model of Random Spanning Trees in Random Environment (RSTRE) designed to interpolate between UST and MST. In particular, when the environment disorder is sufficiently low, the RSTRE on the complete graph has a diameter of n^1/2 as the UST. Conversely, when the disorder is high, the diameter behaves like n^1/3 as for the MST. We conjecture a smooth transition between these two values for intermediate levels of disorder.
