Simulation of the chaos of the financial market through dynamical systems, Monday, November 30, 2020, time 15:30, Webex: Franco Tomarelli personal room
Abstract:Abstract:
We will follow the fractal market approach to simulate the chaos of the behaviour of the financial markets. We will use also some hypotheses of the behavioural finance.

Entropy-Transport distances between measures and metric measure spaces, Tuesday, Febraury 11, 2020, time 15:15, Aula seminari 3° piano
Abstract:Abstract:
After providing the necessary background material, we describe a class of distances coming from optimal Entropy-Transport problems, a recent generalization of optimal transport where also creation and destruction of mass is taken into account.
Inspired by previous work of Gromov and Sturm, we then use these metrics to construct new meaningful distances between metric measure spaces with finite mass.
This talk is based on a joint collaboration with Andrea Mondino and Giuseppe Savaré.

Nonlinear Peridynamic Models, Wednesday, January 22, 2020, time 15:15, Sala Consiglio 7° piano
Abstract:Abstract:
Some materials may naturally form discontinuities such as cracks as a result of scale effects and long range interactions. Peridynamic models such behavior introducing a new nonlocal framework for the basic equations of continuum mechanics. In this lecture we consider a nonlinear peridynamic model and discuss its well-posedness in suitable fractional Sobolev spaces.
Those results were obtained in collaboration with S. Dipierro (Perth), F. Maddalena (Bari) and E. Valdinoci (Perth).

Long-time asymptotics for evolutionary crystal dislocations models, Tuesday, December 17, 2019, time 15:30, Aula seminari 3° piano
Abstract:Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss a recent result concerning the long-time behavior of solutions to evolutionary Peierls-Nabarro type equations, related to crystal dislocations.
I will present the construction of solutions that, at large times, behave like a superposi- tion of an arbitrary finite number of fundamental dislocations, equally oriented and centered near points that evolve according to a repulsive dynamical system.
This result has been obtained in collaboration with J. D ?avila and M. del Pino (University of Bath).

On the highly compressible limit for the Navier-Stokes-Korteweg model with density dependent viscosity, Tuesday, November 12, 2019, time 14:30, Aula seminari 3° piano
Abstract:Abstract:
We investigate the regime of high Mach number flows for compressible barotropic fluids with density dependent viscosity. The Korteweg model as an isothermal model of capillary and quantum compressible fluids is considered. A weak-strong uniqueness analysis is also discussed.
