Statistics for stochastic PDEs: Optimal rates and a nonparametric LAN expansion (hybrid talk)

Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, Erdgeschoss, Erhard-Schmidt-Hörsaal

Abstract
We consider the problem of estimating the coefficients in second order linear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) from spatially discrete or locally averaged observations on a finite time horizon. For a nonparametric diffusivity, we obtain the local asymptotic normality (LAN) property, opening up the road to efficient estimation. The proof reveals interesting aspects of partially observed space-time random fields. It relies on stochastic filtering techniques, on the reproducing kernel Hilbert space of the observation process as well as on the solution of certain Wiener-Hopf integral equations. For lower order terms, we obtain rate-optimal estimators, exhibiting different rates of convergence depending on the differential order. We further establish a general moment-based technique for the joint estimation of diffusivity and volatility parameters, covering both discrete and local measurements.

American options under rough Heston (hybrid talk)
more ... Location
Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, 4. Etage, Raum: 405/406

Abstract
The rough Heston model is a popular option pricing model in mathematical finance. However, due to the non-semimartingale and non-Markovian characteristics of its volatility process, simulations can be prohibitively expensive in practice. Building on previous works, we approximate the volatility process with an N-dimensional diffusion, yielding a Markovian approximation of the rough Heston model. Then, we introduce a weak discretization scheme to simulate paths of these Markovian approximations. Our numerical experiments show that these approximations converge at a second-order rate as the number of time steps approaches infinity. We leverage these approximations to price American options under the rough Heston model.

Homogenization and mean-field limits of transport costs (hybrid talk)
more ... Location
Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, Erdgeschoss, Erhard-Schmidt-Hörsaal

Abstract
We treat the limits, in terms of Gamma-convergence, of several discrete dynamic transport costs. The first concerns Wasserstein-type transport actions on stationary random graphs, for which we use stochastic homogenization and geometric measure theory to find a continuous limit functional. (joint work with Lorenzo Portinale and Jan Maas) The second treats interacting particles with different origins and destinations, which will develop coordinated oscillations in order to minimize a common functional. We show Gamma-convergence as the number of particles tends to infinity, and that minimizers converge to solutions of a Vlasov equation. (joint work with Bernhard Kepka)

Workshop/Konferenz: Energetic Methods for Multi-Component Reactive Mixtures Modelling Stability and Asymptotic Analysis
more ... Location
Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, Erdgeschoss, Erhard-Schmidt-Hörsaal

Abstract
The central theme of this workshop are mechanical models describing the transport of mass, momentum, and energy in multi-component mixtures, including diffusion, convection, and heat transfer. A consistent account of reactions is a further concern. EMRM 2023 focuses in particular on energetic and entropic tools for strongly coupled systems of hyperbolic--parabolic type, whose analysis is still underdeveloped and has received insufficient attention relative to their tremendous significance in real-world applications. Many complex physical processes not only involve mass transfer induced by random diffusion, but also reaction processes and directed transport including non-local drifts induced, for instance, by the interaction of electrically charged particles. The relative influence of these different processes will depend on the specific application. Developing a framework that asymptotically relates the different models is nowadays an active field of research in multi-component flow modelling. This workshop focuses on the analysis of multi-component mixtures using diffusion models and hydrodynamic models, on the analysis of complex evolutionary systems of hyperbolic--parabolic type, including multi-phase problems, as well as on the connections between these approaches by means of asymptotic analysis.
