16 Feb '17

LUISS is looking for teaching assistants for various courses in mathematics, statistics, and computer science for the academic year 2017/2018. Teaching assistants are expected to teach in either English or Italian (not necessarily both), hold office hours, and assist with exams. Whoever is interested should fill out the application form that can be found at the pages http://www.luiss.edu/ateneo/opportunita-di-lavoro/reclutamento-docenti-cont… (Department of Economics and Finance), http://www.luiss.edu/ateneo/opportunita-di-lavoro/reclutamento-docenti-cont… (Department of Management). The deadline is 02 March 2017. I would greatly appreciate if you could inform your graduate students of this opportunity. ******************************************************* Marco Scarsini Dipartimento di Economia e Finanza LUISS Viale Romania 32 00197 Roma, ITALY URL: http://docenti.luiss.it/scarsini/

Annuncio di seminari
by Piccioni, Mauro 15 Feb '17

15 Feb '17

Il giorno 21 febbraio 2017 presso l'Aula E del Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma si terranno i seguenti seminari di Probabilità e Statistica Matematica: Ore 14.30 Wolfgand Woess (TU Graz, Austria) Multidimensional reflected random walk - some results and many questions Abstract: Let (Y_n,V_n) be i.i.d. distributed, with the components r and s-dimensional, respectively. Reﬂected random walk starting at a point x of the positive r-dimensional orthant is deﬁned recursively by X_0 = x, X_n = |X_{n−1}−Y_n|, where |(a_1,...,a_r)| = (|a_1|,...,|a_r|). In R^s, consider the ordinary sum S_n = V_1 +···+V_n . We are interested in (topological) recurrence of the process (X_n,v+S_n) starting at (x,v). While this is quite well understood for refelcted random walk with r=1, in higher dimension (r \geq 2) or with some non-reﬂected coordinates (s \in {1,2}) we have a few basic results and various open questions with some partial answers. This is work with Judith Kloas, with input from Marc Peigne' and Wojciech Cygan. Ore 15.30 Oriane Blondel (CNRS Lyon, France) More random walks on random walks Abstract: We consider a Poissonian distribution of particles performing independent simple random walks. Simultaneously, on top of this system, a random walker evolves with a drift to the right when it is on top of (at least) a particle, to the left when it is on an empty site. We obtain a LLN, CLT and large deviation bounds in high and low density. Joint work with Marcelo Hilario, Renato dos Santos, Vladas Sidoravicius, Augusto Teixeira. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. per informazioni rivolgersi a piccioni(a)mat.uniroma1.it

Seminario Prof. Giorgio Ferrari
by Tiziano Vargiolu 15 Feb '17

15 Feb '17

Il giorno martedi' 21 febbraio alle ore 11 presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universita' di Padova, via Trieste 63, aula 1AD/100, il prof. Giorgio Ferrari dell'Universita' di Bielefeld, e ospite del Dipartimento di Matematica in qualita' di professore visitatore nell'ambito del progetto YITP (Young Investigation Training Program), terra' un seminario dal titolo Controlling Public Debt without forgetting Inflation Abstract -------- Consider a government that wants to control its debt-to-GDP (gross domestic product) ratio, while taking into consideration the evolution of the inflation rate of the country. The uncontrolled inflation rate follows an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck dynamics and affects the growth rate of the debt ratio. The level of the latter can be reduced by the government through fiscal interventions. The government aims at choosing a debt reduction policy which minimises the total expected cost of having debt, plus the total expected cost of interventions on debt ratio. We model such problem as a two-dimensional singular stochastic control problem over an infinite time-horizon. We show that it is optimal for the government to adopt a policy that keeps the debt-to-GDP ratio under an inflation-dependent ceiling. This curve is the free-boundary of an associated fully two-dimensional optimal stopping problem, and it is shown to be the unique solution of a nonlinear integral equation. Finally, some economic conclusions are drawn. Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

15 Feb '17

The 10th workshop on Bayesian Inference for Stochastic Processes (BISP10) will take place in Milano, Italy, on June 13-15, 2017. ** The online abstract submission (for oral or poster presentation) is extended to the 28th of February ** Theoretical and applied contributions on Bayesian inference in stochastic processes are both welcome. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes Markov processes, temporal and spatial processes, computations and methods for complex structures, empirical processes, birth-death and branching processes, networks and relational data, queuing, signal processes, stochastic differential equations. BISP10 is dedicated to Pietro Muliere, on his 70th birthday. All information can be found on the website : www.unibocconi.eu/bisp10 If you have any questions, please contact the Chairs of the Local and Scientific Committees: Sonia Petrone sonia.petrone(a)unibocconi.it and Fabrizio Ruggeri fabrizio(a)mi.imati.cnr.it Best wishes, and we look forward to welcoming you in Milano at BISP10.

Seminario Dott.ssa Zehra Eksi
by Katia Colaneri 14 Feb '17

14 Feb '17

Il giorno giovedì 16 febbraio alle ore 16 presso il Dipartimento di Economia dell'Università di Perugia, la Dott.ssa Zehra Eksi, Assistant Professor presso la WU-Vienna University of Economics and Business, e ospite del Dipartimento di Economia in qualità di professore visitatore nell'ambito del progetto YITP (Young Investigation Training Program), terrà un seminario dal titolo "EM Algorithm for Markov Chains observed via Gaussian Noise and Point Processes Information" *Abstract*: In this paper we obtain an Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm for a setting in which the state variable follows a finite-state Markov chain observed via diffusive and point process information. Such a setting may arise, for example, in the modelling of sovereign credit risk where information stems from default history (jump component) and CDS spreads (diffusive component). Obtaining the EM algorithm amounts to the derivation of finite-dimensional filters for quantities such as number of jumps and sojourn times associated to the Markov chain. In this context, we obtain both exact and unnormalized filters for the related quantities. Moreover, we compute discretized robust versions of the unnormalized filters. Next, we introduce a novel goodness of fit test to check how well the estimated model explains a given data set. Finally, we run a simulation study to test speed and accuracy of the algorithm. In particular, we provide a comparison for the estimates resulting from the robust and naive discretization and the value of point process information (This is a Joint work with Camilla Damian and Ruediger Frey) Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
