Multilevel optimization : from theory to applications in energy management

Didier Aussel

Summary: 

The aim of this course is fourfold, namely :

1. to introduce multi-leader-follower games
2. to explore the recent theoretical advances
3. to present some of the numerous applications of these optimization model
4. to present, in the case of Single-Leader-Follower games (SLMFG), the very recently  tested SOS1-numerical  scheme  to  determine,  numerically,  some solutions of these difficult problems.

Modélisation en Epidémiologie

Patrick Tchepmo Djomegni

Summary: De ce cours, nous espérons que les étudiants auront des outils minimums pour modéliser la propagation des maladies épidémiques, et étudier des stratégies de contrôle. Les étudiants acquerront de connaissances nouvelles qui les prépareront pour leurs travaux thèse (mémoire). L’université en bénéficiera aussi à travers le renforcement des capacités de ses futurs enseignants.

Mesures Aléatoires de Poisson

Etienne Pardoux

Summary: On présente les mesures aléatoires de Poisson, et comment celles-ci permettent de construire les processus de Lévy, mais aussi les équations différentielles stochastiques à sauts, ainsi que les processus de branchement à espace d’état continu

Automaticity

Didier Jean CAUCAL

Summary: In this automaticity course we will teach the recognition of infinite words by automata. We will study the complexity of these infinite words and the non-algebraicity of the irrational numbers they represent. We will discuss its extension via battery-powered automata.

Branching Processes and their Applications

Ibrahima Drame

Summary: Galton Watson process :

                       - without immigration

                       - with immigration

                       - multitype (with a finite number of types)

Continuous time branching process :

    - with exponential lifetime distributions, i.e markovian branching process

Mathematical Modeling of infectious diseases

Patrick Tchepmo Djomegni

Summary: In this course, students will be introduced to the mathematical modeling of infectious diseases. Basic knowledge on certain diseases (tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, malaria…) will be provided. Only deterministic mathematical models will be studied. Since the models are expressed in the form of ordinary differential equations, most of them cannot be solved explicitly. The qualitative characteristics of the solutions will be studied.

Lattices and codes : arithmetic for communication systems

Frédérique Oggier

Summary: In this course, we taught show how lattices and codes, both independently and jointly, are used in the context of communication systems. The course was structured as follows : 

  • Introduction to lattices and geometry of numbers
  • Introduction to linear codes and lattices from codes
  • Introduction to number fields and lattices from number fields
  • Introduction to quaternion algebras and codes from quaternion algebras
  • Practical aspects : channel modeling

Branching Processes and their applications

Ibrahima Drame

Summary: In this course, we will study Galton- Watson processes, which are the simplest prototype of branching processes and are characterized by the fact that time is discrete and represents successive generations. On the other hand, we will consider branching processes in continuous time, that is, populations that reproduce and die at random times, continuously over time.
