主持人：王通会博士　西北农林科技大学后稷学者讲座教授　

New Mexico State University

The purpose of this lecture series is to strength students’  background in  applied mathematics and statistics and their applications. Several professors from domestics and aboard will be invited to deliver talks related in applied mathematics and statistics by the end of this semester.

Series Lecture I

AN INVITATION TO HEAVY-TAILED DISTRIBUTIONS

Dr. Hung T. Nguyen

New Mexico State University

Abstract：Motivated by statistical analysis in financial econometrics, this lecture aims at introducing a class of distributions whose variances are infinite. These are distributions having heavy tails. The lecture is from the ground up, in a tutorial manner. We discuss the foundations of heavy-tailed distributions, the statistics of such distributions, as well as sampling theory using extreme value theory. Some research issues will be also mentioned.

Time: 2:30-3:30 pm, Monday, May 23, 2011.

Place:　 8T02

Hung T. Nguyen received his Doctorat díEtat es Sciences Mathematiques　(Ph.D.) at the Universiteídes Sciences et Techniques de Lille (France) in 1975　under Joseph Kampeíde Feriet. After spending several years at the university of California at Berkeley, and university of Massachusetts at Amherst, he　joined the Faculty at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA, in 1981 where he remained as professor of mathematical sciences　until 2010. He is actually professor emeritus of New Mexico State University.

Dr Nguyen is a fellow of the American Association of Engineering Education and of the International Fuzzy Systems Association. He has been　awarded the Distinguished Lukacs Professorship of Statistics at Ohio State　University (2002) and the Westhafer Award on Excellence in Research at　New Mexico State University (2000).

Dr Nguyenís research interests center around uncertainty analysis of dynamical systems: random set theory, statistics of di§usion processes, fuzzy　systems, and Önancial economics.
