Fwd: Oberwolfach Arbeitsgemeinschaft on Quantitative Stochastic Homogenization
by Faggionato, Alessandra 08 Mar '22

08 Mar '22

Buongiorno, Antoine Gloria mi ha pregata di pubblicizzare il gruppo di lavoro ``Oberwolfach Arbeitsgemeinschaft'' su ``Quantitative Stochastic Homogenization'' organizzata da A. Gloria, F.Otto ad Oberwolfach nella settimana October 16th - October 22nd 2022. Sotto trovate varie informazioni e al link anche una descrizione e un programma dettagliati, prese dalla mail che mi ha inviato. Grazie dell'attenzione Saluti Alessandra %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% The Arbeitsgemeinschaft is an old Oberwolfach institution, started by Faltings and Deninger. It is a reading group with presentations, organized like a students' seminar. The target group are mathematicians of all academic age that are interested in an efficient introduction into a timely topic, with an own active participation. As opposed to workshops, people apply to participate. Incidentally, at the end of each Arbeitsgemeinschaft, the participants discuss topics for next year. For a long time, there has been just a single strand. Recently, Oberwolfach decided to widen to three strands, of which Martin Hairer, Peter Scholze, and Andreas Thom are in charge. The idea is that Martin's strand will be targeted towards more applied topics. Martin asked Felix and me to organize the first event on this topic. (Fifteen years ago, Theo Sturm organized a week on Optimal Transportation). It would be great if you could advertise the event; perhaps there are people in your environment that are interested. More details and the list of topics plus material for the talks are under https://www.mfo.de/occasion/2242/www_view Thank you and best wishes, Antoine -- ************************************************* 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 *************************************************

02 Mar '22

Dear Colleagues, we would like to draw your attention to the upcoming 2022 IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON METROLOGY FOR LIVING ENVIRONMENT that will be held at the University of Calabria, Cosenza (Italy), 25 - 27 May, 2022. The following Special Session is open to receive your submissions. PROBABILITY AND MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS FOR LIVING ENVIRONMENT AND METROLOGY Measurement uncertainty is an important aspect of measurement that affects quality, costs, decisions, and risks. Therefore, it is mandatory to assess the quality of the results and to establish the accuracy requirements. Probability theory and Statistics provide powerful tools for the development and analysis of new mathematical models of phenomena with random characteristics and for drawing conclusions and making inferences. Nowadays probabilistic models are the basis of a large number of applications in modeling different fields of human activity. In particular, these methods use the language of probability to model different phenomena for the evaluation and forecast of measurements in various areas of applied mathematics. Therefore, the aim of this session is to delineate the fundamentals of probability and mathematical statistics impressing a comprehensive understanding of the theory and mechanics of the calculations through several applications in environmental and metrology fields to improve the quality of life.

Seminari Prisma 7 marzo
by Domenico Marinucci 28 Feb '22

28 Feb '22

Cari colleghi vi ricordo che lunedì prossimo 7 marzo alle ore 16 avranno luogo i prossimi due seminari nella serie Prisma; gli speaker sono Pietro Caputo e Vittoria Silvestri. I seminari avranno luogo come sempre sulla piattaforma teams; i dettagli per il collegamento e la lista completa dei seminari si possono trovare qui: http://www.umi-prisma.polito.it/webinars.html Qui sotto titoli ed abstract, grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Speaker: Pietro Caputo, Roma III Title: Random walks on directed random networks Abstract: Exploration via random walks is often very useful for the analysis of directed networks. For instance, the walk's stationary distribution plays a prominent role in ranking systems and search algorithms. In this lecture, we present some recent progress in the analysis of random walks for a class of sparse directed networks generated by the so-called configuration model. We discuss various properties of the stationary distribution, including bulk behaviour and extremal values. We also consider the mixing time, that is the time needed to reach stationarity, and show that the walk typically displays a cutoff behaviour. Moreover, we discuss the asymptotic behaviour of the cover time, that is the expected time it takes the random walk to cover the whole network. Finally, we analyse the convergence to stationarity when the walk experiences regeneration events such as teleportation, as in the PageRank algorithm, or resampling of the underlying graph, as in a dynamically evolving network. ------------------------------------------------------------ Speaker: Vittoria Silvestri, Sapienza Title: Internal DLA on cylinder graphs: typical profiles and mixing. Abstract: Internal DLA is a mathematical model for the growth of a random cluster of particles according to the harmonic measure on the cluster boundary, seen from an internal point. Performing IDLA on cylinder graphs (i.e. graphs of the form GxZ) gives a Markov chain on the infinite space of particle configurations. We show that this chain is positive recurrent, and give a description of typical (i.e. stationary) configurations. We then analyse the mixing time of this chain. -- @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Domenico Marinucci Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~marinucc/ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

seminario: "Estimating the directing information and testing for causality", Maria Skoularidou, 1 Marzo
by Umberto Picchini 27 Feb '22

27 Feb '22

Caro gruppo Random, di sotto annuncio un seminario per il 1 Marzo. Saluti. *********************************************** You are welcome to the next Statistics seminar at Dept of Mathematical Sciences at Chalmers and Göteborg University. We are very glad to have, on Tuesday March 1, Maria Skoularidou <https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/people/in-alphabetical-order/n-to-s/maria-sko…> who will talk of: ///"Estimating the directing information and testing for causality" / * * *About the speaker: *Maria Skoularidou <https://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/people/in-alphabetical-order/n-to-s/maria-sko…> is a PhD student at Cambridge University, UK. Her thesis is focused on probabilistic machine learning and, more precisely, towards using generative modelling in healthcare. Her fields of interest lie in the underpinnings, theory and methodology of machine intelligence, Bayesian inference, theoretical computer science and information theory. She is founder and chair of {Dis}Ability in AI <https://elesa.github.io/ability_in_AI/> and founder and secretary of Women in Data Science and Statistics (RSS special interest group). // //* * *Abstract: *The problem of estimating the directed information rate between two discrete processes { X n } and {Yn } via the plug-in (or maximum-likelihood) estimator is considered. When the joint process {(Xn,Yn)} is a Markov chain of a given memory length, the plug-in estimator is shown to be asymptotically Gaussian and to converge at the optimal rate O(1/√n) under appropriate conditions; this is the first estimator that has been shown to achieve this rate. An important connection is drawn between the problem of estimating the directed information rate and that of performing a hypothesis test for the presence of causal influence between the two processes. Under fairly general conditions, the null hypothesis, which corresponds to the absence of causal influence, is equivalent to the requirement that the directed information rate be equal to zero. In that case, a finer result is established, showing that the plug-in converges at the faster rate O (1/ n) and that it is asymptotically χ 2 -distributed. This is proved by showing that this estimator is equal to (a scalar multiple of) the classical likelihood ratio statistic for the above hypothesis test. Finally, it is noted that these results facilitate the design of an actual likelihood ratio test for the presence or absence of causal influence.* * *Feel free to spread this announcement in your network.* * * *Where*:https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/61015800942 Password: 697666 ** **** *When*: Tuesday 1 March at 14.15-15.15*(Swedish time)*. ** -- _________________________________________________________ Umberto Picchini, Associate Professor, PhD, Docent https://umbertopicchini.github.io/ , twitter: @uPicchini

We use it to study optimal government support in a lockdown that creates heterogeneous revenue losses to firms, which must borrow from banks. Firms’ increase in debt reduces their output due to moral hazard. Banks need safe collateral to raise funds. Without government support, aggregate risk constrains bank lending, amplifying output losses. Optimal support provides sufficient aggregate risk insurance, and is implemented with firm-specific transfers, fairly-priced guarantees on bank debt, and countercyclical firms’ taxation to achieve a fiscal surplus target. Our results shed light on suboptimality dimensions in the actual policy responses. <#> To attend in presence, register here https://forms.gle/vPYYEGBktf66zc4W6 <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/f9zEQSjy6xY7o19sfmiU7UwOhW9DQd5VBI…> To attend online, join zoom meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88281857502?pwd=eW5GazNrYnFUUVR0cGg3RUlCM0NYUT09 <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/-IGT70kXO1-43Lgp7MtmZ2Fo3avErRm3RM…> Meeting ID: 882 8185 7502 Passcode: 161878 <#> <#> *March 2, 2022 | 16:00 - 17:15 @ WEBINAR* <#> *Schumpeterian Competition in a Lucas Economy* Daniel Andrei, /McGill University/ <#> *Abstract.* We model a rent-seeking game where agents experiment with a new technology and compete for claims to a consumption stream. We characterize how creative destruction affects risk, wealth, and asset prices. Competition not only imposes excessive disruption risk on existing assets and higher technological uncertainty, it also increases the wealth duration (the weighted-average maturity of the consumption stream). Because of hedging motives, a complementarity between wealth duration and technological uncertainty decreases systematic risk. If competition is sufficiently intense, a negative risk premium may arise. The model generates price paths consistent with boom-bust patterns and transient episodes of negative expected excess returns. We discuss the implications of competition for income inequality. <#> To attend online, Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82378901875?pwd=MVhPeTZGZktWNFk3RmdyMUltb3lDUT09 <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/tRYUAKB8XcDiTZ9YGCloGbosl3wS0nUBFI…> Meeting ID: 823 7890 1875 Passcode: 423048 <#> <#> <#> <#> <#> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/iaN__jlfz6z7ijnfLR9yi2AHyTYkufRgRm…> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/7J-M65ra_O8_zk55wtbsnjVbAlqEnu-eZ_…> <#> FONDAZIONE COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO Piazza Arbarello 8 - 10122 Torino, Italy phone: +390116705000 segreteria(a)carloalberto.org - www.carloalberto.org Facebook <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/Gny4_tfBFbYYjw5HiREGZ-3ih-MVeJe-HI…> Twitter <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/Ya696wYXuXevZmqUAl4AriMzYAAdxWQM75…> LinkedIn <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/wGq5ypAH5lBEZNV43pojp_3Bxd-QPNIYqf…> Instagram <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/Q-3bd3A33E3Uq--boYenIHuOmG53Ynvmlq…> Youtube <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/zolUnqcEQVaFklBL9NPBCULdSO9KrCqZol…> <#> *INFORMATION UNDER THE NEW GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)* Your personal information has been gathered for the exclusive purpose of informing you about the Collegio's initiatives, considering our and your legitimate interest or your consent.

PhD course "Analysis and control of stochastic models of biomolecular interactions"
by Daniele Cappelletti 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

Dear colleagues, I am happy to announce the following PhD course: The PhD course "Analysis and control of stochastic models of biomolecular interactions", taught by Dr. Ankit Gupta (Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering, ETH Zürich) will be hosted by Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, in May 17-20, 2022. Attending in person is strongly recommended, but other options are available if necessary. To register and for any question, please write to daniele.cappelletti(a)polito.it. The course will deal with stochastic reaction network models, which are continuous time Markov chains commonly used to model biochemical dynamics within cells. Their theoretical and computational analysis is often quite challenging, and design of mathematical methods for their study is currently a very active research area. The goal of this course is to familiarize the students with a broad spectrum of these methods and illustrate them with several biological applications of current and lively interest in the research community. In particular, the following topics will be covered: 1. Finite State Projection methods 2. Moment Closure Schemes 3. Simulation approaches 4. Separation of Extrinsic and Intrinsic noise from biological data 5. Design of intracellular controllers in living cells Best regards, Daniele Cappelletti
