Workshop 3: Backward Stochastic Differential Equations

May 22 2013 - 09:00
May 24 2013 - 17:10
Venue: 

Centre Henri Lebesgue
Université de Rennes 1 - Campus de Beaulieu

Short description of the event: 

Since the first theoretical results for backward stochastic differential equations in the early 90s, this theory has continued to grow due to its applications in the fields of partial differential equations, stochastic geometry, finance and of stochastic control. The conference will provide an opportunity to take stock of recent developments and to consider new perspectives in this field.

The Lebesgue center chose to devote his first thematic semester, to be held in spring 2013, to the rich and close links between probability theory, analysis and the study of partial differential equations. The semester will highlight major recent advances in this broad field and will promote interactions between researchers from many different backgrounds and specialities. Among other events, an international Opening Conference, four thematic workshops and a Summer School will be held in Rennes and Nantes.

Summer School on Topics in Space-Time Modeling and Inference

May 27 2013 - 14:44
May 31 2013 - 14:44
Venue: 

Aalborg University, Denmark

Short description of the event: 

Lecturers:
Professor Peter Diggle, Lancaster University
Professor Tilmann Gneiting, University of Heidelberg
Professor Peter F. Craigmile, Ohio State University
Professor Rasmus Waagepetersen, Aalborg University.

Organizer: Professor Jesper Møller, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Aalborg University, in collaboration with www.csgb.dk

Professor Peter Diggle, Lancaster University, will give a simple classification of space-time point processes and/or data according to whether the spatial or temporal dimension (but not both!) is discrete, and argue that these different situations require different approaches to statistical analysis, and that the choice of modelling strategy should be influenced by the scientific goals of the study that generated the data for analysis. He will also describe statistical models, methods and R packages for space-time point process data.
