Positions (PhD and postdocs) in Probability & Combinatorics, Austria
by Toninelli, Fabio Lucio 08 Jan '24

08 Jan '24

Dear colleagues, The probability and combinatorics groups at the University of Vienna, TU Vienna and TU Graz have recently been awarded a substantial grant from the Austrian Science Fund. Among other things, this 4.3M€ grant will fund 6 PhD positions and 8 postdocs for research on random discrete structures at the interface between probability/statistical mechanics and combinatorics. There will also be a number of events and scientific activities which ought to lead to a highly collaborative environment. (Stay tuned for further announcements!) PhD and postdoc applications in these areas are warmly invited. The starting date is flexible but we target a start around September 2024 or before. We encourage potentially interested candidates to consult the webpage<https://sfbrandom.univie.ac.at/> of our project for more details about the grant and associated activities; the application<https://sfbrandom.univie.ac.at/open-positions-available/> page contains both additional scientific details of the relevant projects, practical details about the positions themselves (duration, salary, etc.) and instructions for the applications. Also feel free to get in touch with one of us for any additional questions. WIth best wishes, Nathanaël Berestycki (Uni Wien, coordinator) Michael Drmota (TU Wien) Ilse Fischer (Uni Wien, co-coordinator) Mihyun Kang (TU Graz) Christian Krattenthaler (Uni Wien) Marcin Lis (TU Wien) Benedikt Stufler (TU Wien) Fabio Toninelli (TU Wien, co-coordinator)

talk Prof. Giulia Di Nunno - Reminder
by Emanuela Rosazza Gianin 07 Jan '24

07 Jan '24

Dear all, you are all invited to participate to the following seminar on *Wednesday 10th of January 2023 at 16:00* in Aula Seminari Demografica 2062 at University of Milano Bicocca (via degli Arcimboldi 8, Milano - building U7, 2nd floor): Speaker: *Giulia Di Nunno* (University of Oslo) Titolo: *Sandwiched Volterra volatility models, power law and option pricing* Abstract: We consider a financial market with stochastic volatility driven by an arbitrary Hölder continuous Gaussian Volterra process. The distinguishing feature of the model is the form of the volatility equation which ensures the solution to be “sandwiched” between two arbitrary functions chosen in advance. Hence the name Sandwiched Volterra Volatility (SVV) model. Targeting option pricing, we discuss the structure of local martingale measures in this market and we develop an algorithm of pricing options with discontinuous payoffs. Our tools rely on the study of Malliavin calculus, indeed the Malliavin differentiability of the equations and prices is studied. With these, we can also study the power law property of the SVV model. Best wishes, Emanuela ****************************************** Emanuela Rosazza Gianin Dipartimento di Statistica e Metodi Quantitativi Università di Milano-Bicocca Edificio U7 – 4° Piano Via Bicocca degli Arcimboldi, 8 20126 Milano Tel. 02 64483208 e-mail: emanuela.rosazza1(a)unimib.it ******************************************

RTD-A in Mathematical Physics @Unibo
by Giacomo De Palma 06 Jan '24

06 Jan '24

The Department of Mathematics of the University of Bologna has opened a 3-year RTD-A (Assistant Professor) position in Mathematical Physics within the PNRR project SERICS - SEcurity and RIghts in the CyberSpace. Within the next three years the Mathematical Physics group plans to open a tenure-track position. The opening and the application procedure can be found at: https://bandi.unibo.it/s/apos5/bando-per-1-posto-da-rtd-a-tempo-pieno-mat-s… The deadline for application is sharp at 12:00 of 02/02/2024 We are looking for top early-career researchers in the fields of Statistical and Quantum Mechanics. These include but are not limited to areas of complex and disordered systems, spin glasses, classical and quantum neural networks and statistical inference, both from a theoretical perspective and by looking at applications, especially to complex networks. The research activity of the successful candidate will be focused on reliability and risk management in complex systems. The candidate will deal with the introduction of mathematical physics models for complex cyber-physical interconnected systems. The first part of the research activity will be devoted to the introduction of (deterministic and/or stochastic) models describing the topology of the interconnections and their evolution in time, through the theory of complex networks. The second part of the research activity will be dedicated to the study of systemic risk from the point of view of statistical mechanics. The aim is the introduction of new risk measure linked to the emergent macroscopic properties, of efficient techniques for anomaly detection and of exogenous/endogenous strategies of risk mitigation that lead to systems that are more robust to external attacks and internal fluctuations. The University of Bologna is the oldest University in continuous operation in the world and renowned to be one of the best in Italy. The city of Bologna offers a broad number of cultural activities and a high quality of life. The Mathematical Physics Group is active in Statistical Mechanics and Applications (https://math.unibo.it/en/research/research-groups/statistical-mechanics-and…) and Quantum Information Theory (https://math.unibo.it/en/research/research-groups/quantum-information-theory) The Department has a wide spectrum of research interests in all the fields of mathematics: https://math.unibo.it/en/research/research-areas and has close collaborations with the Departments of Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, Economics etc. For further information you are welcome to contact Prof. Pierluigi Contucci, pierluigi.contucci(a)unibo.it<mailto:pierluigi.contucci@unibo.it> Prof. Giacomo De Palma, giacomo.depalma(a)unibo.it<mailto:giacomo.depalma@unibo.it> Prof. Gabriele Sicuro, gabriele.sicuro(a)unibo.it<mailto:gabriele.sicuro@unibo.it> Prof. Daniele Tantari, daniele.tantari(a)unibo.it<mailto:daniele.tantari@unibo.it>
