03 Oct '22

Buongiorno ricevo ed inoltro. Saluti Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Inhomegenous Random <inter(a)math.cnrs.fr> Date: Sat, 1 Oct 2022 at 22:44 Subject: January 24-25 IRS 2023 Conference Announcement To: <faggiona(a)mat.uniroma1.it> Dear Colleagues, This is the first announcement for the two-day conference on: INHOMOGENEOUS RANDOM SYSTEMS which will be held on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 January 2023 at Institut Curie and Institut Henri Poincaré, Paris, and also on-line. You will find in attachment a PDF file of the announcement with the same informations as below which you may print and post up. Looking forward to meeting you in Paris, Giambattista Giacomin, Christian Maes, Ellen Saada. --------------------------------------------------------------------- INHOMOGENEOUS RANDOM SYSTEMS Systemes Aleatoires Inhomogenes January 24-25, 2023 Institut Curie & IHP (also online) 11-13, rue Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris The aim of this annual workshop is to bring together mathematicians and physicists working on disordered or random systems, and to discuss recent developments on themes of common interest. Each of the two days is devoted to a specific topic; the 2021 session is planned as follows. Tuesday 24 January: POINT PROCESSES AND STATISTICAL MECHANICS. Moderator: Alessandra Faggionato (Roma). Nontrivial geometrical patterns emerge in many areas of science and technology and a fundamental tool for their modeling is provided by point processes. Their zoology is very rich and a central role is played by the Poisson point process. The workshop aims at presenting recent results on point processes both of theoretical nature (analysis, geometry and probability) and more applied ones, notably in the direction of statistical mechanics and material science. There will also be a moment in memory of our friend and colleague Francis Comets. Speakers: Alessandra Faggionato (Roma), Antoine Gloria (Paris & Bruxelles), Frank den Hollander (Leiden), Martin Huesmann (Muenster), Sabine Jansen (Muenchen), Raphael Lachieze-Rey (Paris), Giovanni Peccati (Luxembourg). Wednesday 25 January: FREE PROBABILITY, BETWEEN MATHS AND PHYSICS. Moderator: Jorge Kurchan (Paris) Free probability is a flourishing field in probability theory. It deals with non-commutative random variables where one introduces the concept of "freeness" in analogy to "independence" of commuting random variables. On the mathematical side, it has given new tools and a deeper insight into, amongst others, the field of random matrices. On the physics side, it has recently appeared naturally in the context of quantum chaos, where all its implications have not yet been fully worked out. Speakers: Denis Bernard (Paris), Jean-Philippe Bouchaud (Paris), Laura Foini (Saclay), Alice Guionnet (Lyon), Frederic Patras (Nice), Marc Potters (Paris), Roland Speicher (Saarbrucken). --------------------- The conference and online participation are free and open to all.

LTI@UniTO Seminar F. De Jong (Tilburg University): October 3, 12.00

29 Sep '22

Dear colleagues, I am happy to forward you the information regarding the following seminar organized by LTI@UniTO. The seminar can also be attended via zoom at the following link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86733344211?pwd=UGNoUi9CNFM5bE5SNmNaeFR6bTJsQT09 Best regards, Luca Regis LTI@UniTO and Fondazione Collegio Carlo Alberto are pleased to invite you to the following seminar: October 3, 2022 | 12:00-13:00 “How do Funds Deviate from Benchmarks? Evidence from MSCI’s Inclusion of Chinese A-shares” (joint with Lennart Dekker and Jasmin Gider) Frank de Jong (Tilburg University) Abstract. An increasing amount of assets is managed by benchmark-tracking investment funds. This study investigates how benchmarking changes affect portfolio compositions in the cross-section of different investor types and stock characteristics. To that end, we exploit the phased introduction of Chinese A-shares to the MSCI Emerging Markets index, which was announced in June 2017 and implemented over the period from May 2018 to November 2019. This change presents a rare opportunity to estimate the impact of index changes and to shed light on cross-sectional implications. We document that particularly passive funds systematically deviate from the benchmark. Market capitalization, stock liquidity and stock volatility affect how benchmark changes translate to portfolio adjustments of mutual funds and ETFs. We then study how the changes in benchmark weights affect financial market outcomes, more specifically the comovement of returns. We find that these characteristics moderate the impact of benchmarking changes on financial market outcomes, suggesting that deviations from benchmarks matter.

One World ABC - Till Hoffmann - September 29, 1.30pm UK time
by Massimiliano Tamborrino 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

Dear all, Season 4 of the One Word ABC Seminar https://warwick.ac.uk/oneworldabc is starting this week on Thursday the 29th September, 1.30pm UK time. The first speaker of the season will be Till Hoffman, who will talk about "Minimizing the Expected Posterior Entropy Yields Optimal Summary Statistics", with an abstract reported below. The link to join the talk is https://bristol-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/93353511660?pwd=MmFTNUR5QkFBeStlenNVemtZbzJ… Meeting ID: 933 5351 1660 Passcode: 406075 We are looking forward to seeing you there, Best regards, Massimiliano on the behalf of the One World ABC Organisers When: 29th September, 1.30pm UK time Speaker: Till Hoffmann <https://tillahoffmann.github.io/> (Harward T.H. Chan School of Publich Health) Title: Minimizing the Expected Posterior Entropy Yields Optimal Summary Statistics Abstract: Extracting low-dimensional summary statistics from large datasets is essential for efficient (likelihood-free) inference. We propose obtaining summary statistics by minimizing the expected posterior entropy (EPE) under the prior predictive distribution of the model. We show that minimizing the EPE is equivalent to learning a conditional density estimator for the posterior as well as other information-theoretic approaches. Further summary extraction methods (including minimizing the L² Bayes risk, maximizing the Fisher information, and model selection approaches) are special or limiting cases of EPE minimization. We demonstrate that the approach yields high fidelity summary statistics by applying it to both a synthetic benchmark as well as a population genetics problem. We not only offer concrete recommendations for practitioners but also provide a unifying perspective for obtaining informative summary statistics. Reference: T. Hoffmann and J.P. Onnela. Minimizing the Expected Posterior Entropy Yields Optimal Summary Statistics.

LUISS Seminar September 29 -- prof Cristensen, link
by Sara 22 Sep '22

22 Sep '22

Dear all, this is a gentle memo of the seminar by Soren Christensen, Uni-Kiel, September 29 at 12:30 e verterà su: *Nonparametric approaches to data-driven stochastic control* Abstract: One of the fundamental assumptions in stochastic control of continuous-time processes is that the dynamics of the underlying process are known. This is, however, usually obviously not fulfilled in practice. On the other hand, a rich theory for nonparametric estimation of the characteristics of continuous-time processes has been developed over the last decades. In this talk, we discuss how to bring together these two areas for developing purely data-driven strategies for stochastic control, which we explore for ergodic impulse and singular control problems. We compare the results with those of deep-Q learning algorithms. Room: 406 a, campus viale Romania, Roma LINK https://luiss.webex.com/luiss-en/j.php?MTID=m3aff761032d19c28c3c1bd004b35f6… *Credentials* *User:* w_guest(a)luiss.it *Password:* iz2BuAvnf5Q Please find a Webex user guide in attachment. -- Sara Biagini, Professor of Mathematical Finance Department of Economics and Finance LUISS Guido Carli https://www.luiss.it/ Address: Viale Romania, 32 - 00197 Roma Web: http://sites.google.com/site/sarabiagini/
