Discovering independent sets of maximum size in large sparse random graphs.

Event Date: May 26, 2021 in Seminario Probabilidades CMM, Seminars

Resumen:  Finding an independent set of maximum size is a NP-hard task on fixed graphs, and can take an exponentially long-time for optimal stochastic algorithms like Glauber dynamics with high activation rates. However, simple algorithms of polynomial complexity seem to perform well in some instances. We  studied the large graph characteristics of two simple algorithms in terms of functional law of large numbers and large deviations. We are especially interested in characterizing a phase transition on the “graph landscape”, implying that some simple algorithms are asympotically...

Universality of the outliers in weakly confined Coulomb gases in dimension.

Event Date: Apr 28, 2021 in Seminario Probabilidades CMM, Seminars

Resumen:     In the talk, we will study two particle systems with a strong conection to statistical physics: on one hand a class of Coulomb gases (model which describes the positions of electrons in dimension 2, attracted by a positive distribution of charges), and on the other hand zeros of random polynomials. For both models, it is known that most particules cluster in a compact set (the empirical measures converge), and we will study the existence of particles outside of this compact. We will see that these outliers converge towards a universal point process, called the Bergman point...

A new proof of Aldous-Broder theorem.

Event Date: Apr 14, 2021 in Seminario Probabilidades CMM, Seminars

Resumen:  The Aldous–Broder algorithm is a famous algorithm used to sample a uniform spanning tree of any finite connected graph G, but it is more general: it states that given a reversible M Markov chain on G started at r and up to the cover time, the tree rooted at r formed by the steps of successive first entrance in each node (different from the root) has a probability proportional to the product of these edges according to M, where the edges are directed toward r. In this talk I will present an extension to the non-reversible case and a new combinatorial proof of this theorem. Based on...

Sumas iteradas para clasificación de series de tiempo.

Event Date: Mar 31, 2021 in Seminario Probabilidades CMM, Seminars

Resumen La clasificación de series de tiempo es una tarea recurrente en ciencia de datos. Usualmente, los datos son transformados de alguna forma para producir una representación concisa, preservando simetrías de interés. En esta charla, presentaré una serie de trabajos que describen cómo las sumas iteradas de una serie de tiempo contienen todas las cantidades (features) polinomiales invariantes bajo realinamiento temporal (time warping). Describiré también como se transforma esta representación bajo la aplicación de cierta clase funciones no lineales. Finalmente mostraré algunos ejemplos...

Asymptotic analysis of a  population dynamics with competition and horizontal transfer.

Event Date: Dec 09, 2020 in Seminario Probabilidades CMM, Seminars

Resumen:  We present a model for the dynamics of a population of bacteria with trait structure, who compete for resources and exchange genetic material by horizontal transfer. Phenotypic traits characterizing individuals may then be vertically inherited through mutations, and horizontally transmitted through transfer. Competition and horizontal transfer influence individual demographics and population size, which in turn feeds back on the dynamics of competitions and transfers. We consider a stochastic individual-based pure jump process taking values in the space of point measures. The jumps...
