Seminario di Marta Leocata, Martedì 21 Marzo, Sapienza Università di Roma
by Silvestri, Vittoria 21 Mar '23

21 Mar '23

Ricordo il seminario di oggi, e segnalo che sarà trasmesso su zoom al seguente link: *Zoom link: * https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/98462690288?pwd=SnYrNmpTQXQxZEI2UmN3VW1ucVNBdz09 Meeting ID: 984 6269 0288 Passcode: 683135 *Martedì 21 Marzo, ore 14:00* Sala di Consiglio, Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma *Speaker:* Marta Leocata, SNS *Title: *Modeling an example of green transition *Abstract:* The work presented is part of a collaboration between mathematicians and philosophers of ethics, politics, and society aiming to understand mechanisms of green energy transition where some kind of interaction between many subjects and collective behaviors seem to play a role. We have identified as a first example the case of solar photovoltaic, with the purpose of explaining the time series of Italy and of different regions. We use tools from continuous-time Markov chains, mean field limits, optimal control, and mean field games. Then, we specify our analysis on the case of domestic installations. In order to explain them we propose a Markovian model of interacting particle systems to describe the decision of a significant proportion of the general public in Italy on the installation of solar photovoltaics (PVs) and compare our models to real data. We assume that the adoption decision follows a well precise pattern. First, the general public develops a certain level of sensitivity to climate change and environmental issues. Then it plans to install the PVs because she/he has a sufficient amount of information on the benefits of PVs. Finally, it installs PVs because the economic benefits out-weights the costs. In conclusion, we propose some original policies, not based not on financial incentives. This work is in collaboration with Franco Flandoli (SNS), Giulia Livieri (SNS), Silvia Morlacchi (SNS), Fausto Corvino (University of Gothenburg) and Alberto Pirni (SSSA). ******************************** Vittoria Silvestri Assistant Professor Department of Mathematics University "La Sapienza" Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5 00185 - Rome ********************************

Padova Seminars in Probability and Finance - Nicola Turchi (Università Milano Bicocca)
by alessandra bianchi 20 Mar '23

20 Mar '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following seminar that will take place on March 31 at 14.30 at the Math Department of Padova. The seminar will be held in person and online via the Zoom platform. The organizers, Alessandra Bianchi, Giorgia Callegaro, Marco Formentin _____________________________________________________ *Speaker*: Nicola Turchi (Università Milano Bicocca) *Title*: High-dimensional random polytopes of the Beta kind *Date and time*: Friday, MARCH 31 at 14.30 *Place*: room 1BC45 at the Department of Mathematics, University of Padova *Zoom link*: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/82935460505 (Meeting ID 829 3546 0505) available also on the webpage https://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/seminari/ *Abstract*: Beta polytopes are a class of random polytopes, which arise as convex hulls of independent random points distributed according to a certain radially-symmetric probability distribution supported on the Euclidean ball, called the beta distribution. A prominent reason for the interest surrounding them is that the beta distribution exhibits peculiar properties that make exact computations possible to achieve, contrarily to most other models of randomness with non-independent coordinates. As the space dimension grows, the expected fraction of the volume that these polytopes fill within their supporting balls can be asymptotically negligible or not, depending on the number of points which are picked in each dimension. In this talk we give an overview on how to quantify this statement, first showing a rough threshold for the aforementioned growth and secondly a more precise one, namely how many points are needed to get any fraction in average. Lastly, we show how we can handle more precise asymptotics for the approach towards zero in the lower regimes of points, based on a work in progress with G. Bonnet and Z. Kabluchko. -- Alessandra Bianchi Dip. di Matematica Università di Padova Via Trieste, 63 - 35121 Padova, Italy phone: +39 049 827 14 06 fax: +39 049 827 14 28 e-mail: bianchi(a)math.unipd.it http://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/

LTI@Unito Seminars| Dimitri Vayanos (March 7) and Johan Hombert (March 8) @ 12.00
by Luca Regis 17 Mar '23

17 Mar '23

Dear Colleagues, it is my pleasure to invite you to the following two seminars in Quantitative Finance, organised by LTI@UniTO (www.carloalberto.org/lti) and Collegio Carlo Alberto (CCA): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 7th @ 12.00 (webinar) Speaker: Dimitri Vayanos (LSE) Title: Passive Investing and the Rise of Mega-Firms Abstract: We study how passive investing affects asset prices. Flows into passive funds raise dispropor-tionately the stock prices of the economy’s largest firms—even when the indices tracked by the funds include all firms. Passive flows also raise the largest firms’ return volatility the most, andraise the aggregate stock market even when they are entirely due to investors switching from active to passive. These effects arise because of the re-pricing of systematic and large firms’idiosyncratic risk. We estimate that passive investing caused the 50 largest US firms to rise 30%more than the US stock market over 1996–2020.

Using the late 1990s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) boom as a laboratory, we show that skilled labor joining this new sector experienced sizeable long-term earnings losses. We trace these losses to skill obsolescence, that cannot be explained by either selection or the subsequent ICT sector bust. During the boom, capital flowed more to firms whose workers would ultimately experience a larger productivity decline. This suggests that financial capital can amplify the negative effects of labor reallocation into booming sectors on aggregate labor productivity.

40th Linz Seminar on Fuzzy Set Theory: Copulas – Theory and Applications
by Fabrizio, Antonio DURANTE 17 Mar '23

17 Mar '23

Dear Colleague, it is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the 40th Linz Seminar on Fuzzy Set Theory <https://www.flll.jku.at/linz2023> Copulas – Theory and Applications Bildungshaus St. Magdalena, Linz, Austria June 6-9, 2023 Since their inception in 1979 the Linz Seminars on Fuzzy Sets have emphasized the development of mathematical aspects in the context of fuzzy sets by bringing together researchers in fuzzy sets and established mathematicians whose work outside the fuzzy setting can provide direction for further research. The philosophy of the seminar has always been to keep it deliberately small and intimate so that informal critical discussions remain central. LINZ 2023 will be the 40th seminar carrying on this tradition and is devoted to the theme "Copulas — Theory and Applications". The goal of the seminar is to present and to discuss recent advances of copulas and related functions and their applications in pure and applied fields. Accordingly, the topics of the Seminar will include but not be limited to: · Copula theory o From bivariate to multivariate copulas o Dependence measures and association o Approximation and convergence of copulas o Measure theoretic aspects of copulas o Copulas in the discrete setting · Copula applications o Applications in pure and applied fields o Estimation in the context of copulas o Copula methods in Data Science o Feature selection · Relationship to other aggregation functions o Triangular (co)norms, implications o Uninorms, nullnorms o Quasi-copulas, semicopulas o Distribution functions The "Linz" tradition has these key features: the number of participants of the Linz Seminars is usually bounded above by 40 with broad international representation and an enjoyable mix of pure and applied interests; there are no parallel sessions so that all participants focus on each presentation and fully engage in each topic; and there is time for discussion of each presentation, with follow up round table(s) for discussion of open problems and issues raised in the talks. In particular, young researchers (PhD students, junior post-docs) are encouraged to submit their latest results. Please submit your extended abstract (up to 4 pages) by March 29th, 2023 following the guidelines provided at the webpage of the seminar. Further Information about the seminar(s) is available at: https://www.flll.jku.at/linz2023 and https://www.flll.jku.at/linzseminars We look forward to your contributions and to welcoming you in Linz, Best regards, Fabrizio Durante, Susanne Saminger-Platz, Wolfgang Trutschnig (Program Chairs) --------------------------------------------------------- Fabrizio Durante Dipartimento di Scienze dell'Economia Centro Ecotekne Pal.

16 Mar '23

Ricevo ed inoltro Saluti Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: Phd Mathematics GSSI <phd.math(a)gssi.it> Date: gio 16 mar 2023, 12:34 Subject: New Call for Math GSSI PhD applications 2023/24 Now open To: *11 PhD FELLOWSHIPS IN MATHEMATICS @GSSI* (Apologies for multiple posting) Please diffuse this announcement among colleagues and potentially interested students. Deadline *May 2nd, 2023 3pm* (Italian time). *Should you require any assistance with questions that are not addressed in the GSSI website*, please contact applications(a)gssi.it ================================================================== Dear Colleagues, this is to announce the opening for *11 PhD Fellowships* in "Mathematics in Natural, Social and Life Sciences" at Gran Sasso Science Institute (GSSI) starting in November 2021. The application must be submitted through the online form available at www.gssi.it/phd/ by May 2nd, 2023 at 3pm (Italian time zone). Please find the call at https://applications.gssi.it/applications/. The fellowships are awarded for 4 years and their yearly amount is € 16.159,91 gross. All PhD students have free accommodation, free luncheon vouchers and use of the canteen. The official language for the PhD course is English. 1 PhD Fellowship is funded under the ERC project *"CARDIOTRIALS -CARDIac simulations to run in-silicO clinical TRIALS**"*, please find further information below. Within the Ph <https://gssi.it/education/mathematics-education>.D. <https://gssi.it/education/mathematics-education>course in Mathematics in Natural, Social and Life Sciences <https://gssi.it/education/mathematics-education> a priority has been established on mathematical modeling, both towards the traditional areas of application, such as Physics or Engineering, and towards emerging issues in Biology and Social Sciences. GSSI mathematics researchers are interested in tackling many problems with complementary perspectives and methods. The area of Mathematics is characterized by four large macro-sectors: Applied Partial Differential Equations, Stochastic Analysis, Numerical methods and Continuum Mechanics Modeling. Within these sectors there is a shared interest in problems related to fluid dynamics and nonlinear waves, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and also its applications to data science. Important ideas of classical analysis, probability theory, mathematical physics and theoretical physics are used also for less traditional applications. Numerical linear algebra and numerical optimization help to design new models and accompanying numerical algorithms for applications in data mining, machine learning and network science. Continuum mechanics models, computational methods in fluid dynamics are used not only in their traditional field at the boundary between applied mathematics and theoretical engineering, but also in nonconventional problems like modeling the full heart function. Students and researchers in Mathematics at GSSI are encouraged to interact with other scientific communities. At GSSI, we believe that the interdisciplinary endeavor is the most effective way to do science and benefit society. Mathematical models are ubiquitous in physics, engineering, information theory, social and life sciences, as they provide a formidable framework to describe the time evolution of deterministic, stochastic and complex systems, which is one of the main goals at GSSI. *1 PhD fellowship* funded under the ERC project *“CARDIOTRIALS -CARDIacsimulations to run in-silicO clinical TRIALS**”*. The project aims at building a virtual model of the human heart based on the fluid-structure-electrophysiology interaction, which will be exploited to study numerically pathologies and assess the efficacy of cardiac devices, accounting for the statistical variability of the population. The project comprises the study of fluid dynamics phenomena and the application of numerical mathematics and high performance computing. The candidates willing to apply are required to work on this specific research project. Within the Ph.D. Programme in Mathematics in Natural, Social and Life Sciences, it is possible to apply both for the CardiOTrials Project position and for GSSI scholarships, by submitting two different applications. Best regards, ---- GSSI PhD Programme in Mathematics in Natural, Social and Life Sciences https://gssi.it/education/mathematics-education
