Seminario di Elena Bandini a Bologna
by Alberto Lanconelli 05 Mar '19

05 Mar '19

Statistics Seminars 2019 Martedì 12 marzo 2019 ore 16 Aula seminari, Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, I piano "BSDEs driven by a general random measure and optimal control for piecewise deterministic Markov processes" Dott.ssa Elena Bandini, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca Abstract: We consider an optimal control problem for piecewise deterministic Markov processes (PDMP) on a bounded state space. Here a pair of controls acts continuously on the deterministic flow and on the transition measure describing the jump dynamics of the process. For this class of control problems, the value function can be characterized as the unique viscosity solution to the corresponding integro-differential Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation with a non-local type boundary condition. We are able to provide a probabilistic representation for the value function in terms of a suitable backward stochastic differential equation, known as nonlinear Feynman-Kac formula. The jump mechanism from the boundary entails the presence of predictable jumps in the PDMP dynamics, so that the associated BSDE turns out to be driven by a random measure with predictable jumps. Existence and uniqueness results for such a class of equations are non-trivial and are related to recent works on well-posedness for BSDEs driven by non quasi-left-continuous random measures" Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare Alberto Lanconelli Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche "Paolo Fortunati" Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna

Call for application PhD in Economics Ca' Foscari University 2019-20
by Antonella Basso 28 Feb '19

28 Feb '19

Dear Colleague, I would be grateful if you could bring to the attention of your best students the 2019-2020 edition of the PhD Program in Economics offered by the Ca' Foscari University of Venice. The PhD Program in Economics aims at training selected students for a career as economists in academic institutions or in research departments of national and international organizations, public institutions, private corporations, central banks, financial institutions. Our recent PhDs first placement include positions both in Italian and foreign Universities such as Università Libera di Bolzano, Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Luiss Guido Carli, Università degli studi di Padova, King’s College London, Boston University, University of Gondar and Zhongnan University of Economics and Law. Some PhDs were employed by private companies such as Morgan Stanley-London, Microsoft and public and private research centers: Banca d’Italia, Bundesbank, Banque Centrale du Luxembourg, European Central Bank, Ecuador Ministry of Education. The considerable diversification of research areas covered by the members of Department of Economics and their international reputation provide an excellent environment where students of most fields in economics can find research ideas and tight guidance for their doctoral studies. The PhD program has a duration of four years. For the academic year 2019-2020, 7 positions are available. Six of them come with a scholarship (around 15,300 € per year) - two of which have a bound topic (Economics and Risk Analystics for Public Policies), and one is reserved for non-Italian applicants who can prove to have their own scholarship covering four years. Deadline for application is *April 10th 2019*, 13h00 (Italian time). Information and application procedure can be found at http://www.unive.it/phdapplication Information on the PhD in Economics can be found at http://www.unive.it/phdeconomics Any questions on the program may be addressed to the PhD Secretariat at: sse(a)unive.it Thank you for your cooperation Best regards Antonella Basso ********************************************************************************************** Caro Collega, Ti scrivo per segnalarti l’apertura del bando per il programma di dottorato in Economics offerto dal dipartimento di Economia dell’Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia. Quest’anno sono disponibili 6 posti con borsa quadriennale (circa 15.300€ annui per l’intera durata del dottorato) di cui due a tematica vincolata sul tema "Economics and Risk Analystics for Public Policies", più un posto per studenti stranieri in possesso di borsa di studio propria. Il bando si chiude il *10 aprile 2019 alle 13.00,* ora italiana. Il dottorato ambisce a preparare un gruppo selezionato di studenti per la carriera accademica, ma anche per ricoprire posizioni in research departments di organizzazioni internazionali, istituzioni pubbliche, imprese private banche centrali e istituzioni finanziarie.

Seminario di Piergiacomo Sabino a Bologna
by Alberto Lanconelli 25 Feb '19

25 Feb '19

Statistics Seminars 2019 Lunedì 4 Marzo 2019 ore 15 Aula seminari - Dipartimento di Scienze Statistiche, I piano “Forward or backward simulation? A comparative study” Dr. Piergiacomo Sabino - Uniper Global Commodities SE, Dusseldorf Abstract:"The aim of this study is to present algorithms for the backward simulation of standard processes that are commonly used in financial applications. We extend the works of Ribeiro and Webber and Avramidis and L’Ecuyer on gamma bridge and obtain the backward construction of a Gamma process. Moreover, we are able to write a novel acceptance-rejection algorithm to simulate Inverse Gaussian (IG) processes backward in time. Therefore, using the time-change approach, we can easily get the backward generation of the Compound Poisson with infinitely divisible jumps, the Variance–Gamma the Normal–Inverse–Gaussian processes and then the time-changed version of the OU process (SubOU) introduced by Li and Linetsky. We then compare the computational costs of the sequential and backward path generation of such processes and show the advantages of adopting the latter one, in particular in the context of pricing American options or energy facilities like gas storages."
