I was given the opportunity to hire a postdoctoral researcher to our department (Dept. of Probability and Math. Statistics) in Prague, to work with me on topics of data depth (i.e. multivariate / functional statistics), and the geometry around that. It will be a pure research position, no teaching, for about 18 months, starting this summer. The salary will be, of course, lower compared to the standards in the western Europe (about 1500 EUR net monthly), but it's surely enough for a decent life in Czech Rep. If you know about someone bright who might be interested in this position, I will be very grateful if you let us know, or if you spread the word. https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/jobs/13621 ...

Seminario di Elena Bandini a Bologna

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
