Relatore:

Bill Sudderth

Titolo:
How to Control a Process to a Goal

Abstract:
Suppose that you have a fortune of $10 and seek to reach $100 by placing
bets at xed odds on repetitions of a given event such as the appearance 
of red
(or black) on each spin of a roulette wheel. What is the best strategy 
for you to
reach your goal? What strategy will get you there in the least expected 
time?
What if you are competing with another player?
I will discuss these and related problems in both discrete and continuous
time.


Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Cordiali saluti,
Laura Sangalli
