Master's degree in mathematics and applications: Analysis of deterministic and random models (ANADEAL)

The Master 2 Analysis of Deterministic and Random Models (ANADEAL), which follows on from the Master 2 Applied Mathematics CEPS, is part of the Mathematics and Applications specialization. This Master's degree covers the research themes of the Applied Analysis and ALEA groups at the Institut de Mathématique de Marseille (I2M), and aims to train students in the dual skills of deterministic and random models and methods, from both theoretical and numerical perspectives.

Pedagogy

  • AIMS

    The CEPS Applied Mathematics programme offers a generalist education in applied mathematics with courses in PDE, scientific computation, probability and statistics while emphasising the interaction between theoretical, numerical and applied aspects on the one hand and the concepts and methods of the other;The course emphasises the interaction between theoretical, numerical and applied aspects on the one hand and deterministic and algebraic concepts and methods on the other.

    This highly modular course allows each student to orientate his or her training according to his or her preferences around one of the following four typical profiles:

    The course is based on a combination of the two.

    • EDP (theoretical, numerical and applied aspects)
    • Probability and statistics (theoretical, numerical and applied aspects)
    • Theory of PDEs, probabilities and statistics.
    • Democratic and algebraic numerical methods, applied statistics

    Research plays a central role in this business-oriented course. Graduates of this course are therefore destined to continue their studies in doctoral theses or to occupy positions at the engineering level.

  • FUNDAMENTAL PREREQUISITES

    The prerequisites correspond to the skills acquired in a M1 in mathematics (or equivalent level: e.g. in an engineering school), a mastery of the fundamental notions of analysis and probabilities will be required.

  • FUNDAMENTAL PREREQUISITES

    Some knowledge of PDE, stochastic processes, numerical or statistical analysis will be learned, as well as experience in using scientific computing software.

  • LEARNING SITES

    • SCIENCES, Télé-enseignement
    • SCIENCES, Marseille St-Charles
  • LEARNING AND RESEARCH

    The CEPS Applied Mathematics programme is a high-level scientific training programme in applied mathematics with a dual purpose of research training and professionalization. It is supported by a dynamic teaching team composed of members of the Institut de Mathématiques de Marseille (I2M) and thus relies on the activities and skills of the I2M, but also on its collaborations with institutes and companies.

  • PROFESSIONAL SKILLS TO BE ACQUIRED

    At the end of their training, students will have acquired a variety of mathematical, theoretical and/or numerical concepts and will know how to articulate them, enabling them to study physical, biological and technological models, etc.

    More specifically, the competences aimed at are:

    Specifically

    • Modifying phenomena from the natural sciences or the humanities
    • Mobilise knowledge for the theoretical study of deterministic or algebraic problems
    • Choose appropriate deterministic or algebraic tools for the exact or approximate solution of a problem
    • Programming numerical methods that are deterministic or algebraic
  • INTERNSHIPS AND SUPERVISED PROJECTS

    Students will have to carry out an internship of a minimum duration of 8 weeks in a research laboratory, a research centre or a company. The internship will lead to the writing of a dissertation and an oral presentation.

  • Masterclass June 23-24, 2023

    Presentation:

    The Master 2 Analysis of Deterministic and Random Models (ANADEAL), which follows on from the Master 2 Applied Mathematics CEPS, is part of the Mathematics and Applications specialization. This Master's degree covers the research themes of the Applied Analysis and ALEA groups at the Institut de Mathématique de Marseille (I2M), and aims to train students in the dual skills of deterministic and random models and methods, from both theoretical and numerical perspectives.

    To promote this Master 2 program, a Master Class is organized to highlight mathematical problems arising from applications in a chosen theme, and the mathematical tools needed to solve them. It is primarily aimed at L3, M1 and M2 mathematics students.

    This year's Master Class is dedicated to optimal transport, with the participation of Nicolas Juillet (Université de Haute Alsace), Thibaut Le Gouic and Magali Tournus (Ecole Centrale Marseille), and Romain Hug (I2M).

    The theory of optimal transport was introduced by Monge in the 18th century, to model a very concrete problem of excavation and embankment, and considerably developed in the 20th century by the work of Kantorovitch. The very formulation of Monge's problem, mixing geometry and measurement theory, makes optimal transport a tool present in a wide variety of branches of mathematics, including the modeling of economic problems, optimization, probability, geometry in metric spaces and Riemannian varieties, etc. Numerical and algorithmic aspects have been developed in recent years, leading to applications of optimal transport to statistical learning.

    The Master Class will consist of 4 lectures over two half-days, Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

    It is open to all interested students: Masters and L3 students from French and French-speaking universities or ENS, and those from engineering schools.

    Organization:

    The Master Class will take place at the Centre International de Rencontres Mathématiques (Cirm) on the Luminy campus, on Friday afternoon June 23, 2023 and on the morning of June 24, 2023. Masterclass CIRM website: https://conferences.cirm-math.fr/3142.html

    Speakers:

    Nicolas JUILLET (Université de Haute Alsace), The martingale transport problem

    Optimal transport theory is a rich field at the interface of several mathematical and scientific domains which, after a slow crystallization, experienced a boom at the end of the last century.

    In these two presentations, I will illustrate its use in probability theory, in particular with the subfield of martingale transport.
