Some results for range of random walk on graph with spectral dimension two (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We consider the range of random walk on graphs with spectral dimension two. We show that a certain weak law of large numbers hold if a recurrent graph satisfies a uniform condition. We construct a recurrent graph such that the uniform condition holds but appropriately scaled expectations fluctuate. Our result is applicable to showing LILs for lamplighter random walks in the case that the spectral dimension of the underlying graph is two.

Random Recursive Tree, Branching Markov Chains and Urn Models (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we will establish a connection between random recursive tree, branching Markov chain and urn model. Exploring the connection further we will derive fairly general scaling limits for urn models with colors indexed by a Polish Space and show that several exiting results on classical/non-classical urn schemes can be easily derived out of such general asymptotic. We will further show that the connection can be used to derive exact asymptotic for the sizes of the connected components of a "random recursive forest", obtained by removing the root of a random recursive tree.

Phase transitions in exponential random graphs (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Large networks have become increasingly popular over the last decades, and their modeling and investigation have led to interesting and new ways to apply statistical and analytical methods. The introduction of exponential random graphs has aided in this pursuit, as they are able to capture a wide variety of common network tendencies by representing a complex global structure through a set of tractable local features. This talk with focus on the phenomenon of phase transitions in large exponential random graphs. The main techniques that we use are variants of statistical physics but the exciting new theory of graph limits, which has rich ties to many parts of mathematics and beyond, also plays an important role in the interdisciplinary inquiry. Some open problems and conjectures will be presented.

Equilibrium fluctuation for a chain of anharmonic oscillators (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
A chain of oscillators is a particle system whose microscopic time evolution is given by Hamilton equations with various kinds of conservative noises. Mathematicians and physicians are interested in its macroscopic behaviors (ε → 0) under different space-time scales: ballistic (hyperbolic) (εx, εt), diffusive (εx, ε^2t) and superdiffusive (εx, ε^αt) for 1 < α < 2. In this talk, we consider a 1-dimensional chain of anharmonic oscillators perturbed by noises preserving the total momentum as well as the total energy. We present a result about the hyperbolic scaling limit of its equilibrium fluctuation as well as some further discussions. (A joint work with S. Olla, Université Paris-Dauphine)

Computation of first-order Greeks for barrier options using chain rules for Wiener path integrals (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In this presentation, we present a new methodology to compute first-order Greeks for barrier options under the framework of path-dependent payoff functions with European, Lookback, or Asian type and with time-dependent trigger levels. In particular, we develop chain rules for Wiener path integrals between two curves that arise in the computation of first-order Greeks for barrier options. We also illustrate the effectiveness of our method through numerical examples.

Scaling limits of random walks via resistance forms (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I will describe some recent work (partly joint with T. Kumagai, Kyoto University, and B. M. Hambly, University of Oxford) regarding scaling limits for random walks on spaces where the scaling limit of the associated resistance metric can be understood. This work is particularly applicable to "low-dimensional" graphs, whose scaling limits are trees and fractals, for example. It also gives a framework for understanding various time-changed processes on the spaces in question, such as those arising from Liouville Brownian motion, the Bouchaud trap model and the random conductance model.

An introduction to Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the space of probability measures (English)
[ Abstract ]
I will discuss Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the space of probability measures.

Two types of applications motivate the issue: one is from the probabilistic large deviation study of weakly interacting particle systems in statistical mechanics, another is from an infinite particle version of the variational formulation of Newtonian mechanics.

In creating respective well-posedness theories, two mathematical observations played important roles: One, the free-particle flow picture naturally leads to the use of the optimal mass transportation calculus. Two, there is a hidden symmetry (particle permutation invariance) for elements in the space of probability measures. In fact, the space of probability measures in this context is best viewed as an infinite dimensional quotient space. Using a natural metric, we are lead to some fine aspects of the optimal transportation calculus that connect with the metric space analysis and probability.

Time permitting, I will discuss an open issue coming up from the study of the Gibbs-Non-Gibbs transitioning by the Dutch probability community.

The talk is based on my past works with the following collaborators: Markos Katsoulakis, Tom Kurtz, Truyen Nguyen, Andrzej Swiech and Luigi Ambrosio.
