Seminario di Probabilità - Padova
by Paolo Dai Pra 20 Oct '16

20 Oct '16

Ho il piacere di invitarvi al seguente seminario, che si terrà Giovedì 27 Ottobre, alle 12:00, in aula 2BC30 della Torre Archimede presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università degli Studi di Padova. SPEAKER: Giovanni Conforti AFFILIATION: University of Leipzig TITLE: Some quantitative results about bridges and Entropic interpolations of probability measures ABSTRACT: In the first part of the talk I will discuss quantitative results about the bridges of the Langevin dynamics and the associated reciprocal processes.They include an equivalence between gradient estimates for bridge semigroups and couplings, comparison principles, and a Logarithmic Sobolev inequality. All results are based on a seemingly new expression of the drift of a bridge in terms of the reciprocal characteristic, which, roughly speaking, is the ``acceleration" of a bridge. The analogy between reciprocal characteristic and acceleration also allows to view our results as a probabilistic version of well known facts about ODEs. Bridges can be used to construct interpolations of probability measures. The resulting curve, called entropic interpolation, is a stochastic counterpart to the displacement interpolation. If time allows, I will discuss connections with gradient flows on Wasserstein space and an estimate of the marginal entropy along entropic interpolations which in the small noise limit gives back the well known convexity of the entropy along displacement interpolations. The talk is partially based on joint work with Max von Renesse. Paolo Dai Pra Dipartimento di Matematica Via Trieste, 63 35121 Padova Tel. +39 0498271361 Fax +39 0498271428 daipra(a)math.unipd.it

Annuncio di seminario

Dipartimento di Matematica, Sapienza Università di Roma Martedì 25 ottobre Ore 14:00, Aula di Consiglio Seminario di Probabilità e Statistica Matematica Claude Lefèvre, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Département de Mathématique Epidemic Risk and Insurance Coverage Abstract; This paper aims to apply simple actuarial methods to build an insurance plan protecting against an epidemic risk in a population. The studied model is an extended SIR epidemic in which the removal and infection rates may depend on the number of registered removals. The costs due to the epidemic are measured through the expected epidemic size and infectivity time. The premiums received during the epidemic outbreak are measured through the expected susceptibility time. Using martingale arguments, a method by recursion is developed to calculate the cost components and the corresponding premium levels in this extended epidemic model. Some numerical examples illustrate the effect of removals and the premium calculation in an insurance plan. This is a joint work with P. Picard (ISFA, Lyon) and M. Simon (ULB). Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare. Conferenze previste nel mese di novembre, nella stessa aula, con lo stesso orario: 8 novembre: Thi Da Cam Pham (Tours) 15 novembre: Marc Peigné (Tours) 22 novembre: Carlo Orrieri (Sapienza) 29 novembre: Pietro Caputo (Roma Tre) Gli abstract saranno inviati tempestivamente.

rettifica orario seminario De Santis a Roma Tre
by Pietro Caputo 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

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.
