Random Matrix & Probability Theory Seminar Speaker: Minh-Binh TRAN (SMU & MIT) Location: CMSA, Room G02** Title: On the wave turbulence theory for a stochastic KdV type equation Abstract: We report recent progress, in collaboration with Gigliola Staffilani (MIT), on the problem of deriving kinetic equations from dispersive equations. To be more precise, starting from the stochastic  Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation, a multidimensional KdV type equation on a hypercubic lattice, we provide a derivation of the 3-wave kinetic equation. We show that the two point correlation function can be asymptotically expressed as the solution of the 3-wave  kinetic equation at the kinetic limit under very general assumptions: the initial condition is out of equilibrium, the dimension is  $d\ge 2$, the smallness of…

Abstract:  Online marketplaces are the main engines of legal and illegal e-commerce, yet the aggregate properties of buyer-seller networks behind them are poorly understood. We analyse two datasets containing 245M transactions (16B USD)  between 2010 and 2021 involving online marketplaces: 28 dark web marketplaces (DWM), unregulated markets whose main currency is Bitcoin, and 144 product markets of one regulated e-commerce platform. We show how transactions in online marketplaces exhibit strikingly similar patterns of aggregate behavior despite significant differences in language, products, time, regulation, oversight, and technology. We find remarkable regularities in the distributions of (i) transaction amounts, (ii) number of transactions, (iii) inter-event times, (iv) time between first and last transactions. We then show how buyer behavior is…
