SPASS seminars: Giulia Livieri & Robin Stephenson - TUE 08.11 at 14:00
by Andrea Agazzi 06 Nov '22

06 Nov '22

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following SPASS <https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass> seminars, jointly organized by UniPi, SNS, UniFi and UniSi: - *N-player Games and Mean Field Games of Moderate Interaction* Giulia Livieri (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa) - *Scaling Limits of Multi-Type Markov Branching Trees* Robin Stephenson (University of Sheffield) The seminars will take place in person on *TUE, 08.11.2022 at 14:00* (the second talk starting at 15:00) in Sala Seminari, Dipartimento di Matematica, University of Pisa and streamed online here <https://meet.google.com/gji-phwo-vbg>. The organizers, A. Agazzi, G. Bet, A. Caraceni, F. Grotto, G. Zanco https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/spass -------------------------------------------- Abstracts: *N-player Games and Mean Field Games of Moderate Interaction* *We study the asymptotic organization among many optimizing individuals interacting in a suitable "moderate" way. We justify this limiting game by proving that its solution provides approximate Nash equilibria for large but finite player games. This proof depends upon the derivation of a law of large numbers for the empirical processes in the limit as the number of players tends to infinity. Because it is of independent interest, we prove this result in full detail. We characterize the solutions of the limiting game via a verification argument.* *Scaling Limits of Multi-Type Markov Branching Trees* *Consider a population where individuals have two characteristics: a size, which is a positive integer, and a type, which is a member of a finite set. This population reproduces in a Galton-Watson fashion, with one additional condition: given that an individual has size n, the sum of the sizes of its children is less than or equal to n. We call multi-type Markov branching tree the family tree of such a population.*

[PRISMA] seminari di Paolo Dai Pra e Alberto Chiarini
by Domenico Marinucci 03 Nov '22

03 Nov '22

Cari colleghi i seminari del gruppo UMI Prisma riprenderanno a partire da Novembre con il calendario consueto (primo lunedì del mese, ore 16-18, online su piattaforma Teams). Qui sotto i dettagli del prossimo incontro (Paolo Dai Pra e Alberto Chiarini), grazie per l'attenzione, Domenico Marinucci * November 7, 2022, 16:00-17:00 (CET): Paolo Dai Pra TITLE: Noise-induced periodicity in stochastic dynamics: some examples ABSTRACT: The emergence of periodic behavior in the dynamics of several interacting components is a common pattern of self-organisation in living systems. Rigorous mathematical treatments are still limited to few examples. In this talk we review some of these examples, emphasizing the essential role of the noise in the appearance of regular rhythms. * November 7, 2022, 17:00-18:00 (CET): Alberto Chiarini TITLE: How costly is it for a simple random walk to cover a fraction of amacroscopic body? ABSTRACT: In this talk we aim at establishing large deviation estimates for the probability that a simple random walk on the Euclidean lattice (d>2) covers a substantial fraction of a macroscopic body. It turns out that, when such rare event happens, the random walk is locally well approximated by random interlacements with a specific intensity, which can be used as a pivotal tool to obtain precise exponential rates. Random interlacements have been introduced by Sznitman in 2007 in order to describe the local picture left by the trace of a random walk on a large discrete torus when it runs up to times proportional to the volume of the torus, and has been since a popular object of study. In the first part of the talk we introduce random interlacements and give a brief account of some results surrounding this object. In the second part of the talk we study the event that random interlacements cover a substantial fraction of a macroscopic body. This allows to obtain an upper bound on the probability of the corresponding event for the random walk. Finally, by constructing a near-optimal strategy for the random walk to cover a macroscopic body, we discuss a matching large deviation lower bound. The talk is based on ongoing work with M. Nitzschner (NYU Courant).
