Abstrakt
We consider a non-newtonian fluid consisting of a newtonian solvent and polymer molecules as solute. The kinetic theory models the polymer molecules as dumbbells and compiles dynamical equations that embody internal dumbbell interactions and interactions of the dumbbell with the surrounding fluid via its velocity gradient. The dynamical equations imply a generalized Fokker-Planck equation for a distribution function of the system of polymer molecules. Then the Fokker--Planck equation is used to derive macroscopic evolution equations for certain mean values. For given velocity gradient of the fluid, three evolution equations are needed to end up with a closed equation system for the polymer molecules. The corresponding three thermodynamic variables are the number density, the mean squared end-to end distance of a polymer molecule and the polymer stress. Finally we prove an H-theorem and solve the subtle problem of thermodynamic consistency.

Abstrakt
In recent years, the amount of available information has become so vast in certain fields of applications that it is infeasible or undesirable to carry out the computations on a single server. This has motivated the design and study of distributed statistical or learning methods. In distributed methods, the data is split amongst different administrative units and computations are carried out locally in parallel to each other. The outcome of the local computations are then aggregated into a final result on a central machine. In this talk we will consider the limitations and guarantees of distributed methods in general under communication constraints (i.e. only limited amount of bits are allowed to be transmitted between the machines) on the random design regression model. We derive minimax lower bounds, matching upper bounds and provide adaptive estimators reaching these limits. This is an ongoing joint work with Harry van Zanten.

Abstrakt
We prove joint large deviation principle for the empirical pair measure and empirical locality measure of the near intermediate coloured random geometric graph models on n points picked uniformly in the space [0; 1]d; for d 2 N: From this result we obtain large deviation principles for the number of edges per vertex, the degree distribution and the proportion of isolated vertices for the near intermediate random geometric graph models.
