Title: How long does it take to train an Elephant Random Walk?
Abstract: We study how conditioning on the first $k$ steps, which we think of as training, affects the long-term behavior of the Elephant Random Walk. When the elephant is conditioned to be at position $k$ at time $k$, the first return time to the origin scales as $k^{(4-4p)/(3-4p)}$ in the diffusive regime, and grows exponentially in the critical regime. We loosely interpret this as a measurement of the rate at which the elephant forgets its training.
Objectives of the Al-Khwarizmi seminar: to share knowledge, problems, methods among researchers in applied mathematics from different backgrounds and countries.
Seminar details: the seminar occurs online every two weeks (Zoom link: https://ksu-hub.zoom.us/j/97753107489), with each talk lasting 50 minutes, followed by a 20-minute Q&A session.
Organizers: under the guidance of an international scientific committee, the webinar is led by researchers from Tunisian and Saudi universities (see our committee members).
Flexibility and collaboration: we aim at fostering collaborations and potential research projects or publications among researchers from all over the world, thus everyone is welcome to suggest a talk by sending a message to any of these emails: rafik.aguech@ipeit.rnu.tn, nabil.gmati@enit.utm.tn, wissem.jedidi@fst.utm.tn, aalhammali@iau.edu.sa
Support: AGALab-Monastir, LAMSIN-Tunis, the Mediterranean Institute for the Mathematical Sciences, and the Tunisian Mathematical Society.
