Seminari di probabilità e statistica matematica
by Piccioni, Mauro 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

Lunedì 6 marzo Ore 16:00, Aula di Consiglio Seminario di probabilità e statistica matematica Mauro Piccioni Conditional iid structures in exchangeable multivariate distributions: from Marshall-Olkin to “load sharing” models The discovery of a conditional iid structure allows the understanding of the dependence contained in a d-variate distribution as generated by an exogenous latent factor . According to the celebrated de Finetti ‘s theorem this is equivalent to the possibility of defining an infinitely exchangeable sequence of random variables with the given d-marginal. In parametric classes of multivariate distributions, the determination of the values of the parameter corresponding to a structure of this type is a difficult problem which have been solved only in a few cases. In the talk the elegant theory developed by Mai and Scherer for the Marshall-Olkin distribution will be reviewed and some partial results for “load-sharing” models will be presented (joint work with Gerard Letac and Fabio Spizzichino). Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. I seminari proseguiranno durante il secondo semestre ogni lunedì con cadenza settimanale.

Seminario Maren Schmeck a Padova
by Tiziano Vargiolu 27 Feb '17

27 Feb '17

Carissimi, il giorno martedi' 28 febbraio alle ore 15 presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' di Padova, via Trieste 63, sala Riunioni VII piano, la dott.ssa Maren Diane Schmeck dell'Universita' di Colonia terra' un seminario dal titolo ELECTRICITY PRICE MODELING WITH STOCHASTIC TIME CHANGE (joint with SVETLANA BOROVKOVA (VU AMSTERDAM)) ABSTRACT. In this paper, we develop a novel approach to electricity price modeling, based on the powerful technique of stochastic time change. This technique allows us to incorporate the characteristic features of electricity prices (such as seasonal volatility, time varying mean reversion and seasonally occurring price spikes) into the model in an elegant and economically justifiable way. The stochastic time change introduces stochastic as well as deterministic (e.g., seasonal) features in the price process? volatility and in the jump component. We specify the base process as a mean reverting jump diffusion and the time change as an absolutely continuous stochastic process with seasonal component. The activity rate of the stochastic time change can be related to the factors that influence supply and demand. Here we use the temperature as a proxy for the demand and hence, as the driving factor of the stochastic time change, and show that this choice leads to realistic price paths. We derive properties of the resulting price process and develop the model calibration procedure. We calibrate the model to the historical EEX power prices and apply it to generating realistic price paths by Monte Carlo simulations. We show that the simulated price process matches the distributional characteristics of the observed electricity prices in periods of both high and low demand.
