Thematic program "New Trends in Mathematical Stochastics"
August 15 – December 31, 2021 (rescheduled from 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic)
The general idea of this thematic program is to strengthen interactions between experts and young researchers working in the areas of probability theory, stochastic processes and their applications. Visits of leading scientists in these areas will serve to enrich the mathematical education in St. Petersburg and to develop possibilities for future collaboration.
Longer term visitors to the semester are welcome. Some financial support is available for scientists in the field of probability and statistics who plan to make a joint research with specialists based in St. Petersburg. Visits for a period longer than 1 month are preferred, but shorted periods are also possible on negotiation.
The following activities will be organized during the program:
- introductory online school "Randomness online", November 4 – 8, 2020
- conference “New Trends in Mathematical Stochastics”, August 30 – September 3, 2021
- workshop "St. Petersburg Youth Conference in Probability and Mathematical Physics", December 21 – 24, 2021
- a number of minicourses given by invited visitors.
