Yaozhong Hu (University of Kansas, USA) gives a lecture with the title: Rate of convergence and asymptotic error distribution of Euler approximation schemes for fractional diffusions

Olfa Draouil (University of Tunis El Manar, Tunisia) gives a lecture with the title: Optimal insider control of stochastic partial differential equations

The main focus of the workshop is on how behavioral models, in particular reference dependent preferences, can shed light on economic behavior and the role of public policy.

Multi-index Monte Carlo and Multi-index Stochastic Collocation

ESOP seminar. Jonas Hjort is Assistant Professor at Columbia University. He will present a paper entitled "Sources of Variation in State Effectiveness and Consequences for Policy Design".

The seminar has been cancelled due to personal circumstances. 

Patrick Peter, Directeur de Recherche CNRS, IAP-Paris

Department seminar. Yuliy Sannikov is Professor of Economics at Princeton University. He will present a paper entitled "Optimal asset management contracts with hidden savings", written jointly with Sebastian Di Tella.

In this talk I will present a paper by D. Bisch, R. Nicoara and S. Popa where continuous families of irreducible subfactors of the hyperfinite II_1 factor which are non-isomorphic, but have all the same standard invariant are constructed. In particular, they obtain 1-parameter families of irreducible, non-isomorphic subfactors of the hyperfinite II_1 factor with Jones index 6, which have all the same standard invariant with property (T).

Title: Enumerative Geometry of singular curves in a Linear System

Abstract: Enumerative geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the following question: "How many geometric objects satisfy certain constraints". A well known class of enumerative question is to count curves in a linear system H^0(X,L) that have some prescribed singularities. In this talk we will describe a topological method to approach this problem. We will express the enumerative numbers as the Euler class of an appropriate bundle. We will then go on to explain how we compute the degenerate contribution of the Euler class using a topological method.
