Padova Seminars in Probability and Finance - Athanasios Vasileiadis (Université Côte d'Azur)
by alessandra bianchi 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the following seminar that will take place on January 27 at 14.30. The seminar will be held in person and online via the Zoom platform. The organizers, Alessandra Bianchi, Giorgia Callegaro, Marco Formentin _____________________________________________________ *Speaker*: Athanasios Vasileiadis (Université Côte d'Azur) *Title*: Solving Stochastic Control and Mean Field Games using Deep Reinforcement Learning *Date and time*: January 27, 2023 at 14.30 *Place*: Room 2BC30 of the Department of Mathematics, University of Padova *Zoom link*: https://unipd.zoom.us/j/83527477275 (meeting ID: 835 2747 7275) available also on the webpage https://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/seminari/ *Abstract*: In recent years there have been big breakthroughs in applying machine learning for the solution of control problems primarily solving the curse of dimensionality. In this talk we will lay the foundations of Reinforcement Learning and apply it to stochastic control problems first and then Mean Field Games. On the theoretical side we will see some guarantees for the convergence of the approximations, as well as how to use noise to learn the Nash Equilibria of the MFG problem. On the practical side we will use Artificial Neural Networks to look for the optimal controls in feedback form and discuss results in higher dimensions. -- 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/

(PMS)^2 talks: E. Luongo and F. Grotto [Jan 23]
by Maurizia Rossi 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

Dear colleagues, We are happy to announce the following *hybrid - that is, in person with online streaming - *talks: Speaker: *Eliseo Luongo* (SNS Pisa) *Title:* A stochastic particle approximation approach of the 2D Navier-Stokes equations with vorticity generation. (See Abstract below.) Speaker: *Francesco Grotto *(Univ. di Pisa) *Title:* Area Excursions and nodal Leray measures for Random Waves on hyperbolic space. (See Abstract below.) Date and Time: *Monday January 23, 14:30-16:30 (Rome time zone)* Place: *Aula 3014,* *Dip. di Matematica e Applicazioni, Univ. di Milano-Bicocca*, via R. Cozzi 55, Milano *Webex link:https://unimib.webex.com/unimib-it/j.php?MTID=m4a814f4cfe7e7a7ace5ef5e… <https://unimib.webex.com/unimib-it/j.php?MTID=m4a814f4cfe7e7a7ace5ef5e4d3f6…>* *Meeting number:* 2743 324 2093 *Password:*YPiMid9rP83 *-* *Abstract (Luongo)*: Particle approximation of 2D Navier-Stokes equations is a relevant problem in fluid dynamics with consequences also in its numerical analysis. The problem is essentially solved in the case of domains without boundary, but it remains mostly open in the case of no-slip boundary conditions, due to the difficulty of understanding and modeling generation of vorticity close to the boundary. The solution of this problem could have a deep impact in our understanding of turbulence. In this talk we present a stochastic particle approximation method which allows us to treat 2D Navier-Stokes equations in the case of prescribed vorticity generation. Our approach is almost completely functional analytic based. Moreover we obtain finer convergence results to the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations compared to propagation of chaos techniques. The talk is based on a joint work with F. Grotto and M. Maurelli. *Abstract (Grotto):* Focusing on the asymptotic behavior of a couple of relevant geometric functionals, we will discuss analogies and differences between random wave models on hyperbolic space and other geometric settings on which the related theory is by now well-established. Based on joint work with Giovanni Peccati. - These talks are part of the *(PMS)^2: Pavia-Milano Seminar series on Probability and Mathematical Statistics* organized jointly by the universities Milano-Bicocca, Pavia, Milano-Politecnico. Participation is free and welcome!

Seminar in Statistics - ANGELIKA ROHDE
by Pierpaolo De Blasi 16 Jan '23

16 Jan '23

SEMINARS IN STATISTICS @ COLLEGIO CARLO ALBERTO <https://www.carloalberto.org/events/category/seminars/seminars-in-statistic…> Venerdi 20 Gennaio 2023, alle ore 12.00, presso il Collegio Carlo Alberto, in Piazza Arbarello 8, Torino, si terrà il seguente seminario: ------------------------------------------------ Speaker: *Angelika Rohde* (University of Freiburg) Title: *Estimating functionals under local differential privacy* Abstract: We study the problem of estimating a functional $\theta(\mathbb{P})$ of an unknown probability distribution $\mathbb{P} \in\mathcal{P}$ in which the original iid sample $X_1,\dots, X_n$ is kept private even from the statistician via an $\alpha$-local differential privacy constraint. Let $\omega_{TV}$ denote the modulus of continuity of the functional $\theta$ over $\mathcal{P}$ with respect to total variation distance. For a large class of loss functions $l$ and a fixed privacy level $\alpha$, we prove that the privatized minimax risk is equivalent to $l(\omega_{TV}(n^{-1/2}))$ to within constants, under regularity conditions that are satisfied, in particular, if $\theta$ is linear and $\mathcal{P}$ is convex. Our results complement the theory developed by Donoho and Liu (1991 Ann. Statist. 19 633–667) with the nowadays highly relevant case of privatized data. Somewhat surprisingly, the difficulty of the estimation problem in the private case is characterized by $\omega_{TV}$, whereas, it is characterized by the Hellinger modulus of continuity if the original data $X_1,\dots, X_n$ are available. We also find that for locally private estimation of linear functionals over a convex model a simple sample mean estimator, based on independently and binary privatized observations, always achieves the minimax rate. In particular, over the larger class of so-called sequentially interactive privacy mechanisms, a non-interactive procedure attains this rate. Next, we turn to one of the most studied non-linear functionals, the quadratic functional. Here, in contrast, we show that for estimating the integrated square of a density, sequentially interactive privacy mechanisms improve substantially over the best possible non-interactive procedure in terms of minimax rate of estimation. In particular, in the non-interactive scenario we identify an elbow in the minimax rate at $s=3/4$, whereas in the sequentially interactive scenario the elbow is at $s=1/2$. This is markedly different from both, the case of direct observations, where the elbow is well-known to be at $s=1/4$, as well as from the case where Laplace noise is added to the original data, where an elbow at $s=9/4$ is obtained. ------------------------------------------------ Sarà possibile seguire il seminario anche in streaming: Join Zoom Meeting <https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89240989650?pwd=eVZSTUVEWHM2SnhBWXpnL21VU3gvQT09> Il seminario è organizzato dalla "de Castro" Statistics Initiative www.carloalberto.org/stats -- Pierpaolo De Blasi University of Torino & Collegio Carlo Alberto carloalberto.org/pdeblasi <https://sites.google.com/a/carloalberto.org/pdeblasi/>

Summer school: Deterministic and random features of fluids - EPFL, 2023.7.3-7
by Lucio Galeati 15 Jan '23

15 Jan '23

Dear colleagues, I'm glad to inform you about the following event that we are organizing at EPFL for this July; feel free to advertise it among potentially interested participants at your department. Below you can find a short description and the link to the official website. Participation is free but mandatory; there is (limited) funding for travel and accommodation, for which case the application deadline is March 15th 2023. All the best, Lucio (on behalf of the organising committee) ========= Summer school: Deterministic and random features of fluids Date: Monday, Jul 3, 2023 -- Friday, Jul 7, 2023 Place: EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland The summer school focuses on the deterministic and random phenomenologies of incompressible fluids. The format consists of two lecture series (6 hours each) by Prof. Jacob Bedrossian and Prof. Thierry Gallay and of several research talks by experts in the field. The lectures address two main themes: chaotic properties of fluid models in the presence of an external random force and stability at high Reynolds number of vortex configurations. The school is intended to introduce early stage researchers (Ph.D. and postdocs) to these subjects. Support for selected young participants will be available. Organizing Commitee: M. Colombo, M. Dolce, L. Galeati, M. Sorella Website@EPFL: https://www.epfl.ch/labs/amcv/amcv/events/summer-school-deterministic-and-r…
