Speaker: Prof. Chao Zhou (National University of Singapore)Venue: Room 203, Building 2, Haina Court, Zijingang CampusAbstract: This paper deals with the optimization problem of a class of controlled N-particle systems. We establish the regularity results, which is uniform in N , on the HJB equations corresponding to the N-particle system. The uniform regularity results are obtained by the stochastic maximum principle and the analysis on a Riccati type BSDE. Using the uniform regularity results, we show the convergence of value function and optimal control as the number N of particles tends to infinity, where the convergence rates are also given. This is based on a joint work with Huafu Liao, Alpar Meszaros and Chenchen Mou.Contact person: Prof. ZHANG Rongmao (rmzhang@zju.edu.cn)

Speaker: Prof. HUANG Qihai (University of Huddersfield)Host: Prof. HU Qiongjing (Zhejiang University)Venue: Room 723, Building A, School of Management, Zijingang CampusAbstract: Online labor platforms (OLPs) employ algorithmic management practices to manage app-workers. Drawing upon the self-determination theory, this research examines the impact of perceived algorithmic management practices (PAMP) on the service performance of ride-hailing drivers through three studies. We theorise the process by investigating the mediating roles of individual needs satisfaction (competence, autonomy, and relatedness) and work engagement, and the moderating role of online community support (OCS). We developed and validated a PAMP scale using a rigorous multistep process in the first study. In the second study, we empirically tested our conceptual model with a sample of 431 ride-hailing drivers. Our findings reveal that PAMP influences drivers’ competence, autonomy, and relatedness needs satisfaction differently. The satisfaction of these three basic needs enhances work engagement, subsequently improving service performance.Furthermore, OCS positively moderates the relationship between PAMP and drivers’ needs satisfaction. To deepen our understanding of how PAMP influences drivers’ needs satisfaction and subsequent behaviors, we conducted a qualitative investigation with 103 ride-hailing drivers. Our study provides valuable insights for future research and practice in managing app-workers in the gig economy.

Speaker: Prof. Peter McHughHost: Prof. LI LeiVenue: Room 457 (Lecture Hall), Nami Building, Zijingang CampusProfile of the speaker: Prof. Peter McHugh is an esteemed DNA repair scientist whose groundbreaking work has significantly advanced our comprehension of interstrand-crosslinks (ICLs) removal mechanisms. He started on his academic journey with a Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Biochemistry from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology in 1991 and awarded his PhD in 1996 from the University of Oxford. Following this, Dr. McHugh devoted five years to post-doctoral research at the University College London before returning to Oxford as a Tenure-track scientist. Today, he is Director of Oncology Laboratories at the MRC Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Oxford.Dr. McHugh’s primary interest is to understand how repair of damaged DNA is controlled during chromosome duplication, and why potentially dangerous changes in the behavior of cells can occur when this process goes wrong. He wishes to use this improved knowledge of DNA damage and its repair to improve treatments for cancer. His works were published on prestigious academic journal such as Nature, Molecular Cell, Nucleic Acid Research, Journal of Biological Chemistry, etc.
