This week
Statistics
Lee Bowron (Kerper and Bowron LLC) – Contract-level cash-flow projection for service contracts and manufacturer warranties
Service contracts and manufacturer warranties are large short-duration liability books that are still commonly reserved with a single aggregate earning curve. This talk describes a contract(or warranty)-level alternative: from point-of-sale data only, each contract is given a month-by-month probabilistic projection […]
Logic
Assaf Rinot (Bar-Ilan University) – Ramsey theory of uncountable linear orders
We shall describe the quest to classify uncountable linear orders, along the way debunking the claim that "Every nontrivial statement of infinite combinatorics is independent of the axioms of set theory".
Next week
Probability
Fractional, Rough, and Singular Stochastic Dynamics [Workshop]
The workshop will take place at the School of Mathematics (University of Leeds) and will bring together researchers in fractional, rough, and singular stochastic (partial) differential equations. Further information is available at https://conferences.leeds.ac.uk/frssd2026/
Geometry and Analysis
Davide Barilari (Università degli Studi di Padova) – Curvature measures and the Sub-Riemannian Gauss-Bonnet Theorem
Sub-Riemannian geometries can be seen as limits of Riemannian metrics. In this talk, we focus on the behaviour of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem under this Riemannian approximation scheme for surfaces embedded in three-dimensional spaces. Adopting a measure-theoretic viewpoint, we prove that […]
