rettifica orario seminario De Santis a Roma Tre

SEMINARIO a Roma Tre Prof. Emilio De Santis (Universita La Sapienza) Titolo: Stochastic Ising model with fast decreasing temperature. Mercoledi' 19 Ottobre 2016 ORE 15:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre Largo San Leonardo Murialdo,1 - Pal.C, 311 Abstract In the regime of temperature fast decreasing to zero, results on the stochastic Ising models are presented. A k-dynamics allowing to flip sets of k spins at the same time is also introduced showing that the behavior of the models deeply depends on this parameter. For these models we follow the classification of Gandolfi, Newman, Stein (2000), i.e. a model is of type F if any spin flips finitely many times a.s., it is of type I if any spin flips infinitely many times a.s., or it is of type M otherwise. Conditions to obtain models of type F, I, or M and examples are discussed.

Thursday 20 October, from 12.00 to 13.00, room 207 viale Romania 32 00197 Rome Speaker: Domenico Marinucci (Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata) Title: The geometry of random eigenfunctions Abstract: The characterization of the geometric properties for the excursion sets of random fields on generic manifolds is a classical topic of probability theory; it has been very much revived recently by the discovery of the Gaussian Kinematic Formula by Adler and Taylor (2007). This formula provides a fully explicit characterization of the expected value for so-called Minkowski functionals of excursion sets under very broad circumstances. In this talk, we review some very recent results pointing at a generalization of this formula to the variance of Minkowski functionals and to a corresponding Central Limit Theorem, in the case of random eigenfunctions. The talk is based on a recent paper with Valentina Cammarota; if time permits, we will also discuss some related results involving also Giovanni Peccati, Maurizia Rossi and Igor Wigman. ******************************************************* Marco Scarsini Dipartimento di Economia e Finanza LUISS Viale Romania 32 00197 Roma, ITALY URL: http://docenti.luiss.it/scarsini/

Seminario di Paolo Milanesi a Roma Tre

SEMINARIO Fisica Matematica Milanesi Paolo Aix Marseille Titolo: Metastabilita' del modello di Ising stocastico Martedi' 18 Ottobre 2016 ORE 16:00 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre AULA 311 (SEMINARI) Largo San L. Murialdo,1, Roma Abstract: Un sistema fisico si trova in uno stato metastabile se permane per lungo tempo in una sorta di equilibrio apparente prima di rilassare in modo brusco verso lo stato stabile. Per i sistemi ferromagnetici questo tipo di fenomeno si manifesta nel ciclo di isteresi. In questo seminario consideriamo la dinamica di Glauber del modello di Ising 2d al di sotto della temperatura critica e con un piccolo campo magnetico esterno. Un lavoro di Schonmann e Shlosman ha chiarificato l'asintotica logaritmica del tempo di transizione metastabile cosi' come la sua dipendenza dalla forma di Wulff, mentre rimane la questione di studiarne la legge. Passeremo dapprima in rassegna i risultati in letteratura per poi parlare dell'esponenzialita' del tempo di transizione, illustrando l'euristica ed alcune idee della prova.

Thursday 13 October, from 12.00 to 13.00, room 207 viale Romania 32 00197 Rome. Speaker: Max Klimm (Technische Universität Berlin) Title: Optimal Impartial Selection Abstract: A fundamental property of many interactions like the awarding of prizes, the election of heads of committees or the process of peer review is that one or more members of a set of agents are selected based on nominations from within the set. Since the agents act as voters and nominees at the same time it is desirable that a selection mechanism is impartial in the sense that the probability of selecting an agent is independent of the nominations cast by that agent. In graph theoretic terms, this leads to the interesting problem of selecting vertices with high in-degrees under the constraint that the selection probability of each vertex is independent of its outgoing edges. We give a randomized impartial mechanism that in expectation selects an agent with at least half the maximum number of nominations. This is best possible subject to impartiality and resolves a conjecture of Alon et al. Further results are given for the case where some agent receives many nominations, each agent casts at least one nomination, and more than one agent is selected. ******************************************************* Marco Scarsini Dipartimento di Economia e Finanza LUISS Viale Romania 32 00197 Roma, ITALY URL: http://docenti.luiss.it/scarsini/
