Stochastic equations for processes built from bounded generators

The generator for a pure jump process with bounded jump rate is a bounded operator on the space of measurable functions. For any such process, it is simple to write a stochastic equation driven by a P...

Non-additive probability, integration and decision making

Frequently a decision maker (DM) does not have a full information about the underlying uncertainty. For instance, the information about the probability of some events might be missing, or the probabil...

The reset time of Internal DLA

Consider Internal DLA on cylinder graphs of the form GxZ. How does a large cluster typically look like? How long does it take for the process to forget its initial profile? In this talk I will address...

A test of Gaussianity based on the Euler characteristic of excursion sets

We deal with a stationary isotropic random field X:R^d→R and we assume it is partially observed through some level functionals. We aim at providing a methodology for a test of Gaussianity based on t...

Well-posedness of semilinear SPDEs with singular drift: a variational approach

Well-posedness is proved for singular semilinear SPDEs on a smooth bounded domain D in R^n. The linear part is associated to a coercive linear maximal monotone operator on L^2(D) while the drift is re...

Two characterizations of Dirichlet-Ferguson measures

We consider the Dirichlet-Ferguson (DF) measure, a random probability on a locally compact Polish space X introduced by Ferguson in [1]. The measure has ever since found many applications, widely rang...

New frontiers in biology based robotics

Abstract: Can Nature improve technology? What is the link between living systems and robots?giving way to a series of innovative robotic solutions assisting and supporting today’s society. A bioinspir...

Active fludis: from liquid crystals to living systems

Abstract: Colonies of motile microorganisms, the cytoskeleton and its components, cells and tissues have much in common with soft condensed matter systems (i.e. liquid crystals, amphiphiles, colloids ...

Muscle synergies for motor control

Abstract: A fundamental challenge in neuroscience is understanding how the central nervous system (CNS) succeeds in coordinating the many degrees-of-freedom of the musculoskeletal system to control li...

The physics of glasses form the viewpoint of theoretical physicists

Abstract: Glassy materials are characterized by being solid (for all practical purpose) at low temperature in absence of a sharp transition from the liquid phase to the solid state.  They are ubi...
