Probability Seminar (Ruoyu Wu)
Gardner 210Speaker: Ruoyu Wu (UNC) Title: Moderate Deviation Principles for Weakly Interacting Particle Systems Abstract: Moderate deviation principles for empirical measure processes associated with weakly interacting Markov processes are established. Two families of models are considered: the first corresponds to a … Continue reading

Probability Seminar (Harry Crane)
Gardner 210Speaker: Harry Crane (Rutgers) Title: Probabilistic symmetries in networks I discuss various refinements and extensions of the principle of exchangeability, focusing on 3 specific cases: 1. Relative exchangeability, by which the distribution of a random graph is invariant with respect … Continue reading
Sayan Banerjee (UNC Reading group)
Hanes 125 Hanes Hall, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC, United StatesI will discuss some techniques used in investigating the existence, uniqueness and asymptotics of stationary distributions for diffusion processes on non-compact spaces that arise in several physical models. These problems are more challenging when the driving noise is low dimensional (hypoelliptic … Continue reading
