LTI@Unito webinar Lorenzo Schoenleber (CCA): “Investor Behavior under Prospect Theory: Evidence from Mutual Funds” | June 14, 2021 @12:45
by Luca Regis 10 Jun '21

10 Jun '21

Dear Colleagues, I am happy to share with you the following invitation to the Quantative Finance webinar organized by LTI@UniTO and Collegio Carlo Alberto, “Investor Behavior under Prospect Theory: Evidence from Mutual Funds” by Lorenzo Schoenleber (CCA), which will take place on Zoom on June 14th, at 12.45. Below you find the Zoom link and an abstract of the presentation. Best regards, Luca Regis <#> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/CkeqzI9VH3wAjL0mIewldcmVdn9Kyki4A1…> <#> LTI@Unito and Fondazione Collegio Carlo Alberto are pleased to invite you to the following webinar <#> *June 14, 2021 | 12:45 - 13:45* *“Investor Behavior under Prospect Theory: Evidence from Mutual Funds”* *Lorenzo Schoenleber (Collegio Carlo Alberto)* <#> *Abstract. *This paper studies the investment behavior of investors and fund managers within the mutual funds industry. We find that investors are biased in their mutual fund purchase decisions in a way described by prospect theory: The prospect theory value predicts future mutual fund flows, despite the fact that it is not related to the mutual funds’ future performance. We show that the mutual funds’ prospect theory value contains incremental information compared to historical performance measures already discovered in the mutual fund flow literature, and subsumes the information content of variables related to the convexity in the flow-performance relationship. We find that mutual fund managers are not subject to any behavioral bias identifiable by prospect theory when selecting stocks for their mutual fund portfolio. The results are robust to various specifications. *Zoom Link:* *https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85611292343?pwd=U1dwYXZrZFQvR0RaZGwvZmplS2tFUT09 <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/79Qh76oDew-iI1lTKKd-JiGNLs42TkHRfm…>* Meeting ID: 856 1129 2343 Passcode: 401236 <#> <#> <#> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/YmtAmHu7JhL3tEkSBLOh9PvpHnMR_PZzOe…> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/AWpDX3iRxSwhx4MX6D5K64D_f2W6jUS_f2…> <#> 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/4RHP7RFelHmPbN3l7D0GqNF1iSMpQHHnP4…> Twitter <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/EPbbUwncGLMOBC2qw2aNITsMvBTfaFVZcL…> LinkedIn <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/DcHnPK_RQAOSwsn5P0Ykl5hEaDyjahuL3n…> Instagram <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/EUM8gEcq3q4LvNepOA15xKXC8xWWbOaKbx…> Youtube <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/9VeN44_sxivBMcSIflgJy1DuZHDI0j6YLh…> <#> *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.

(PMS)^2 online talk: Vincent Martinez, Monday June 14 at 17.30
by Margherita Zanella 09 Jun '21

09 Jun '21

Dear colleagues, we are happy to announce the following online talk: Speaker: Vincent Martinez (CUNY Hunter College) Title: On unique ergodicity, regularity, and mixing for the weakly-damped stochastic KdV equation. Abstract: We discuss the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of invariant measures for the damped-driven stochastic Korteweg-de Vries equation, where the noise is additive and sufficiently non-degenerate. It is shown that a simple, but versatile control strategy, typically employed to establish exponential mixing for strongly dissipative systems such as the 2D Navier-Stokes equations, can nevertheless be applied in this weakly dissipative setting to establish elementary proofs of both unique ergodicity, albeit without mixing rates, as well as regularity of the support of the invariant measure. Under the assumption of large damping, however, a one-force, one-solution principle is established, from which we are able to deduce the existence of a spectral gap with respect to a Wasserstein distance-like function. Date and time: Monday June 14, 17:30-18:30 (Rome time zone) Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85740643260?pwd=SzFjTXo0bWE3YjI3VWo0b3krT09kdz09 ID riunione: 857 4064 3260 Passcode: w7yJLi This talk is the fourth of the (PMS)^2: Pavia-Milano Seminar series on Probability and Mathematical Statistics organized jointly by the universities Milano-Bicocca, Pavia, Milano-Politecnico and Milano-Statale. Participation is free and welcome! (though limited to 100 participants for technical reasons). Best regards The organizers (Mario Maurelli, Carlo Orrieri, Maurizia Rossi, Margherita Zanella)

Conference at CIRM
by Giovanni Conforti 08 Jun '21

08 Jun '21

Cari colleghi, Ecco l'annuncio di una conferenza al CIRM di Marsiglia che potrebbe interessarvi. Giovanni Dear All, We are happy to announce the upcoming conference “Schrödinger Problem and Mean-field PDE Systems: Computational and Theoretical Advances” taking place at CIRM in Luminy, France from Nov. 15 to Nov. 19 2021. The webpage of the event is publicly available at https://conferences.cirm-math.fr/2413.html and you can find below a brief description of the themes of the conference. Registration is open until July 1st. At the moment we aim for a hybrid (online+in person) conference, but this could change depending on the development of the pandemic. Limited funding is available for junior participants or participants who cannot support themselves. Moreover, there are also some free slots for contributed talks. We hope to see you soon, in whichever form. Best regards, the organizers. Julio Backhoff, Guillaume Carlier, Giovanni Conforti, Ivan Gentil, Daniela Tonon. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Schrödinger Problem and Mean-field PDE Systems: Computational and Theoretical Advances” Monge’s question of how to optimally move sand-pile stands at the origin of the modern theory of optimal transport. The development of this theory over the last decades led to impressive advances in analysis and geometry, reaching out to applied fields such as economics and machine learning. One and a half century after Monge, Schrödinger asked: “What is the most likely evolution of a cloud of random particles conditionally on the observation of their initial and final configurations? "This question, going under the name of Schödinger Problem, initiated a research line that has grown enormously in the last years since it was understood that Schrödinger’s and Monge’s questions are the same when the fluctuations of the random particles are very small. This discovery offered a natural ground for the theories of optimal transport and large deviations to meet and thrive together. At the same time, it also inspired the use of entropic regularization techniques in machine learning and numerics for PDEs, achieving major computational advantages. Asking Schrödinger’s question for strategic particles is the gateway to connect the Schrödinger problem and large deviations with the theory of mean field stochastic control and planning mean field games. This brings to light new mathematical questions. Can entropic regularization speed up the computation of Nash equilibria? Are there new functional inequalities that capture the ergodic behaviour of mean field games? Bringing together researchers from the areas of probability, optimal transport, statistical machine learning and mean field games, this conference aims to strengthen the interplay between the Schrödinger problem and mean field systems, and facilitate the birth of novel methodologies and results.

Fwd: [owps] OWPS: two talks thursday June 3
by Faggionato, Alessandra 02 Jun '21

02 Jun '21

Buongiorno, inoltro l'annuncio del OWPS per chi fosse interessato. Grazie per l'attenzione. Saluti Alessandra ---------- Messaggio inoltrato ---------- Da: *One World Probability* <ow.probability(a)gmail.com> Data: mercoledì 2 giugno 2021 Oggetto: [owps] OWPS: two talks thursday June 3 A: owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk Dear All, we have two talks tomorrow, by Gerard Ben Arous and Benjamin McKenna, see below. Remember that we start 14:00 UTC which is 16:00 CET! 14:00-15:00 Gerard Ben Arous The topology of the elastic manifold This is joint work with Paul Bourgade and Benjamin McKenna (both Courant Institute, NYU) and relies on the joint recent papers arXiv:2105.05051 and arXiv:2105.05000. The elastic manifold is a paradigmatic representative of the class of disordered elastic systems. These models describe random surfaces with rugged shapes resulting from a competition between random spatial impurities (preferring disordered configurations), on the one hand, and elastic self-interactions (preferring ordered configurations), on the other. The elastic manifold model is interesting because it displays a depinning phase transition and has a long history as a testing ground for new approaches in statistical physics of disordered media, for example for fixed dimension by Fisher (1986) using functional renormalization group methods, and in the high-dimensional limit by Mézard and Parisi (1992) using the replica method or by Le Doussal-Mueller-Wiese (2007) which relies on functional renormalization group. We study the topology of the energy landscape of this model in the Mézard-Parisi setting, and compute the (annealed) topological complexity both of total critical points and of local minima. Our main result confirms the recent formulas obtained by Fyodorov and Le Doussal (2020). It identifies the boundary between simple and glassy phases, as well as the nature of the phase transition. The main argument relies naturally on Random Matrix Theory, through the Kac-Rice formula. 15:00 - 16:00 UTC Benjamin McKenna Random determinants beyond invariance This is partially joint work with Gérard Ben Arous and Paul Bourgade (both Courant Institute, NYU) and relies on the recent joint paper arXiv:2105.05000 and solo paper arXiv:2105.05043. To study the topology of high-dimensional random functions via the Kac-Rice formula, the core requirement is the analysis of the asymptotic behavior of large random determinants in the exponential scale. For models like the elastic manifold, these random determinants are not invariant under the usual groups of symmetries, as for usual models of spherical spin glasses for instance. Thus their asymptotic evaluation is rather delicate. We give an abstract result for the behavior of large random determinants beyond the invariant case, which cover many other interesting models beyond the elastic manifold. As an example of one such model, we discuss bipartite spherical spin glasses. The Zoom link is on the OWPS webpage.

Pisa Online Seminars - J. Corujo and W. Van Zuijlen (Tuesday, June 8 at 15:00 and 16:00)
by Giacomo Filippo Di Gesu 02 Jun '21

02 Jun '21

Dear colleagues, I would like to invite you to the following online seminar organized by the Probability group of the University of Pisa. The two talks will be accessible under the link Click here to join<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19:af3d635091e049579e555a84219ab3…"Tid":"c7456b31-a220-47f5-be52-473828670aa1","Oid":"dfd1e5f6-331d-43e0-a180-4bb6ce727fb7"}> Best regards, Giacomo Tuesday, June 8, 15:00 Speaker: Josué Corujo (Université Paris Dauphine) Title: Spectrum and ergodicity of a neutral multi-allelic Moran model Abstract: We will present some recent results on the study of a neutral multi-allelic Moran model, which is a finite continuous-time Markov process. For this process, it is assumed that the individuals interact according to two processes: a mutation process where they mutate independently of each other according to an irreducible rate matrix, and a Moran type reproduction process, where two individuals are uniformly chosen, one dies and the other is duplicated. During this talk we will discuss some recent results for the spectrum of the generator of the neutral multi-allelic Moran process, providing explicit expressions for its eigenvalues in terms of the eigenvalues of the rate matrix that drives the mutation process. Our approach does not require that the mutation process be reversible, or even diagonalizable. Additionally, we will discuss some applications of these results to the study of the speed of convergence to stationarity of the Moran process for a process with general mutation scheme. We specially focus on the case where the mutation scheme satisfies the so called "parent independent" condition, where (and only where) the neutral Moran model becomes reversible. In this later case we can go further and prove the existence of a cutoff phenomenon for the convergence to stationarity. This presentation is based on a recently submitted work, for which a preprint is available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.08809. Tuesday, June 8, 16:00 Speaker: Willem Van Zuijlen (WIAS) Title: Total mass asymptotics of the parabolic Anderson model Abstract: We consider the parabolic Anderson model with a white noise potential in two dimensions. This model is also called the stochastic heat equation with a multiplicative noise. We study the large time asymptotics of the total mass of the solution. Due to the irregularity of the white noise, in two dimensions the equation is a priori not well-posed. Using paracontrolled calculus or regularity structures one can make sense of the equation by a renormalisation, which can be thought of as ''subtracting infinity of the potential''. To obtain the asymptotics of the total mass we use the spectral decomposition, an alternative Feynman-Kac type representation and heat-kernel estimates which come from joint works with Khalil Chouk, Wolfgang König and Nicolas Perkowski. ************************ Giacomo Di Gesù Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Pisa Largo Bruno Pontecorvo 5 56127 - Pisa, Italy giacomo.digesu(a)unipi.it<mailto:giacomo.digesu@unipi.it> https://sites.google.com/site/giacomodigesu/

Seminar on Stochastic Games by M. MNIF "in Padova" (Zoom)
by Giorgia Callegaro 02 Jun '21

02 Jun '21

Dear colleagues, this email is to announce the Probability and Finance seminar of this week, "in Padova" (Zoom). Here are the details: * Speaker: *M. MNIF* (University of Monastir, Tunisia) * Title: *Nonzero-sum stochastic Impulse Games with an application in competitive retail energy markets* * Date: *Friday June 4*, 2021 at 3 pm (ITA time) * Abstract: We study a nonzero-sum stochastic differential game with both players adopting impulse controls, on a finite time horizon. We derive the corresponding system of quasi-variational inequalities (QVIs in short). We prove, by means of the weak dynamic programming principle for the stochastic differential game, that the value function of each player is the unique viscosity solution to the associated QVIs system. We present a probabilistic numerical scheme which approximates the solution of the QVIs system and we give some numerical results. *** Zoom link: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/85706083496 Have a nice day, Giorgia Callegaro -- Giorgia Callegaro Associate Professor Department of Mathematics - University of Padova Via Trieste 63 , I-35121 Padova - ITALY Tel: +39-0498271481 Fax: +39-0498271499 E-Mail: gcallega(a)math.unipd.it <https://webmail.math.unipd.it/horde3/imp/message.php?mailbox=Sent&index=598#> Personal web-page: https://sites.google.com/site/giogiocallegaro/Home

Webinar Volgushev @Bocconi
by Giacomo Zanella 31 May '21

31 May '21

We announce the following webinar from the Statistics Series at Università Bocconi: Date: Thursday, June 3rd, h17:00 (Italy time) Speaker: Stanislav Volgushev (University of Toronto) Title: Structure learning for Extremes Abstract: Extremal graphical models are sparse statistical models for multivariate extreme events. The underlying graph encodes conditional independencies and enables a visual interpretation of the complex extremal dependence structure. For the important case of tree models, we provide a data-driven methodology for learning the graphical structure. We show that sample versions of the extremal correlation and a new summary statistic, which we call the extremal variogram, can be used as weights for a minimum spanning tree to consistently recover the true underlying tree. Remarkably, this implies that extremal tree models can be learned in a completely non-parametric fashion by using simple summary statistics and without the need to assume discrete distributions, existence of densities, or parametric models for marginal or bivariate distributions. Extensions to more general graphs are also discussed. The webinar will be on zoom at: https://zoom.us/j/97942632075?pwd=eDhNTlREdU5UVGpMcDVPSWV2bU5nQT09 Meeting ID: 979 4263 2075 Passcode: 627490 Kind regards, Giacomo Zanella [La tua firma può scrivere un futuro.

Seminari Prisma 7 Giugno
by Domenico Marinucci 29 May '21

29 May '21

Cari colleghi il prossimo incontro per il ciclo di seminari Prisma (speaker: Francesco Caravenna e Maurizia Rossi) si svolgerà lunedì 7 Giugno alle ore 16 sulla piattaforma Teams; qui sotto il link, i titoli e gli abstract. Grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci e Claudia Ceci Link collegamento: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3a667d2414be564c5d8fba30acffeb… Speaker: Francesco Caravenna (Università di Milano-Bicocca) Title: Central limit theorems in disordered systems and stochastic PDEs Abstract: I will present some recent convergence results toward Gaussian processes, that arise from statistical mechanics models and stochastic PDEs connected to the so-called KPZ equation. These results may be viewed as generalised central limit theorems and they can be proved with a blend of old and new techniques, whose wide interest I will try to illustrate. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Speaker: Maurizia Rossi (Università di Milano-Bicocca) Title: The geometry of random waves Abstract: In this talk we investigate the behavior of the "typical" eigenfunction of a compact Riemannian manifold. In particular, motivated by both Yau's conjecture on nodal sets and Berry's ansatz on planar random waves, we consider random spherical harmonics and study the distribution of the length of their nodal lines for large eigenvalues. These results raise several questions regarding both the distribution of other geometric functionals of excursion sets at any level and the behavior of nodal statistics of random eigenfunctions of a "generic" manifold. In this talk we answer some of these questions, relying on recent developments in the theory of local geometry of random fields and Gaussian Kinematic Formulae à la Adler & Taylor. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% -- @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Domenico Marinucci Dipartimento di Matematica Università di Roma Tor Vergata https://www.mat.uniroma2.it/~marinucc/ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

LTI@Unito webinar Andrea Modea (U. Bonn): “Recapitalization, Bailout, and Long-run Welfare in a Dynamic Model of Banking”| May 24, 2021 @12:45
by Luca Regis 20 May '21

20 May '21

Dear Colleagues, I am happy to share with you the following invitation to the Quantative Finance webinar organized by LTI@UniTO and Collegio Carlo Alberto, “Recapitalization, Bailout, and Long-run Welfare in a Dynamic Model of Banking” by Andrea Modena (University of Bonn), which will take place on Zoom on May 24, at 12.45. Below you find the Zoom link and an abstract of the presentation. Best regards, Luca Regis <#> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/J7QJ4oN6YVj_zZsZOtARrIVf6c7Hmq99bS…> <#> LTI@Unito and Fondazione Collegio Carlo Alberto are pleased to invite you to the following workshop <#> *May 24, 2021 | 12:45 - 13:45* *“Recapitalization, Bailout, and Long-run Welfare in a Dynamic Model of Banking”* *Andrea Modena (University of Bonn, Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia) * <#> *Abstract. *We study the trade-off between the short-run costs and the long-run benefits of bank bailouts. In the model, banks leverage, thanks to their cost advantage at monitoring firms, but hold precautionary capital buffers to avoid costly equity issuance. Banks’ recapitalization is suboptimal because they do not internalize the externalities of the banking sector’s relative size on their individual leverage capacity and firms’ investments. Systematic bailouts can improve the allocation efficiency in bad states, in which banks’ leverage is persistently constrained and investments are low. In the long run, bailouts accelerate the economy’s recovery by fostering growth, thereby reducing endogenous risk. *Zoom link:* *https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83596624662?pwd=ZmlvenJSbGJVZjl4WTA0MnNMUXVlZz09* <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/s-qJVnhbS_zG1dfsi6qOu9mnfTxc8QKO7h…> Meeting ID: 835 9662 4662 Passcode: 056057 <#> <#> <#> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/yuwpD8sTuPk6FHLiRKKpTMm-UjUyfN6wgb…> <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/VpUegKgodGXzBen7C44jhlkXkF9jhsSmmo…> <#> 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/cMWe7pVTdvfxQ1F14Ip-99gRFCuIRpXB8y…> Twitter <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/PBGBAvJh5x5DlI_7sK-JDvUzZNEYzjMddC…> LinkedIn <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/ODY9SQh8giPEbUl9tQNsfhNYuPH1kUrrxH…> Instagram <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/eSYLTqj79odIe23NOKQ9iD17xZiiWLxZpk…> Youtube <https://4z5y5.r.a.d.sendibm1.com/mk/cl/f/VHxNOf4LAHpDbLIqIRMcZ1IjxJ8vJMlt0R…> <#> *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.

(PMS)^2 online talk: Alessandra Bianchi, Monday May 24 at 17.30
by Carlo Orrieri 19 May '21

19 May '21

Dear colleagues, We are happy to announce the following online talk: Speaker: Alessandra Bianchi (Università di Padova) Title: Limit Theorems for Exponential Random Graphs. Abstract: Exponential Random Graphs are defined through probabilistic ensembles with one or more adjustable parameters. They can be seen as a generalization of the classical Erdos Renyi random graph, obtained by defining a tilted probability measure that is proportional to the densities of certain given finite subgraphs. In this talk we will focus on the edge-triangle model, that is a two-parameter family of exponential random graphs in which dependence between edges is introduced through triangles. Borrowing tools from statistical mechanics, together with large deviations techniques, we will characterize the limiting behavior of the edge density for all parameters in the so-called replica symmetric regime, where a complete characterization of the phase diagram of the model is accessible. First, we determine the asymptotic distribution of this quantity, as the graph size tends to infinity, in the various phases. Then we study the fluctuations of the edge density around its average value off the critical curve and formulate conjectures about the behavior at criticality based on the analysis of a mean-field approximation of the model. Joint work with Francesca Collet and Elena Magnanini. Date and time: Monday May 24, 17:30-18:30 (Rome time zone) Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81602205122?pwd=Wlk0SVZPRjY4UHFzR1c5RmJMekRCZz09 <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81602205122?pwd=Wlk0SVZPRjY4UHFzR1c5RmJMekRCZz09> Meeting ID: 816 0220 5122 Passcode: d5v0SS This talk is the second of the (PMS)^2: Pavia-Milano Seminar series on Probability and Mathematical Statistics organized jointly by the universities Milano-Bicocca, Pavia, Milano-Politecnico and Milano-Statale. Participation is free and welcome! (though limited to 100 participants for technical reasons) Best regards The organizers (Mario Maurelli, Carlo Orrieri, Maurizia Rossi, Margherita Zanella)

WEBINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 21 Maggio 2021, alle ore 12.00, si terrà il seguente webinar: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Paul Jenkins *(University of Warwick) Title: *Asymptotic genealogies of interacting particle systems* Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87319216872?pwd=L1JnR0UvamZ2RC9Eb2xFbW9qREN0Zz09 Meeting ID: 873 1921 6872 Passcode: 626226 Abstract: Interacting particle systems are a broad class of stochastic models for phenomena arising in physics, engineering, biology, and finance. A prominent class of such models can be expressed as a sequential Monte Carlo algorithm in which the aim is to construct an empirical approximation to a sequence of measures. The approximation is constructed by evolving a discrete-time, weighted population of particles, alternating between a Markov update and a resampling step. Resampling gives rise to a notion of a genealogy in which duplicated particles are regarded as offspring of their parents. In this talk I discuss how to characterise the genealogy underlying this evolving particle system. More precisely, under certain conditions we can show that the genealogy converges (as the number of particles grows) to Kingman's coalescent, a stochastic tree-valued process widely studied in population genetics. This makes explicit the analogy between sequential Monte Carlo and an evolving biological population. This is joint work with Suzie Brown, Adam Johansen, Jere Koskela, and Dario Spanò. ------------------------------------------------ Il webinar è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats Cordiali saluti, Pierpaolo De Blasi --- University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>
