LRSP Mini-Program on Interaacting Stochastic Systems
Workshop on Spatially Distributed and Hierarchically Structured
Stochastic Systems
Laboratory for Research in Statistics and Probability |
Significant mathematical advances in infinite particle systems, measure-valued processes, stochastic partial differential equations, multiple space-time scale analysis and hierarchical systems have taken place over the past twenty years. The objective of this mini-program is to review the state-of-the-art in these fields, to focus on a number of research problems of current importance and to explore potential applications of these developments to the challenging problems of large interacting systems that arise in biology, communications and economics.
The program is comprised of two major parts. The first, to be held at the Laboratory for Research in Statistics and Probability at Carleton University March 17 – May 17, 2002, involves bringing together a group of senior researchers, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students in this field for collaborative research on problems of current importance. The second is a one week workshop, April 4-10, 2002 to be held at the CRM in Montreal.

ORGANIZING COMMITTEE:
Don Dawson, Klaus Fleischmann, Andreas Greven, Anton Wakolbinger
TOPICS: Interacting particle systems, spatial stochastic models, measure-valued processes, mean-field and hierarchical mean-field limits. Applications to modeling in biology, communications and economics
LOCATION: CRM, Montreal.
RELATED ACTIVITIES:
As part of this a Probability Day will be held on Saturday, April 6, 2002 (possibly
at McGill University).
Related activities will also take place during the spring term Miniprogram on
Interacting Stochastic Systems at the Laboratory for Research in Statistics
and Probability (LRSP) in Ottawa.
SPONSORS: CRM, LRSP and funds provided by the Humboldt Foundation as part of
a Max Planck Award for International Cooperation.
