!!! Latest News !!!
- Jointly with colleagues from Münster we are organizing a workshop on Limit theorem for spatial random structures within the DFG priority program Random Geometric Systems.
- The Scientific Advisory Board of the Hausdorff Research Institute for Mathematics in Bonn has made decisions on the future trimester programs. We are happy to announce that our proposal Synergies between modern probability, geometric analysis and stochastic geometry (jointly with Ronen Eldan, Assaf Naor, Kavita Ramanan, Matthias Reitzner and Elisabeth Werner) has been approved. Our trimester program will take place Januar until April 2024.
- Tristan Schiller joins our team in April 2022. Welcome, we are happy to have you here!
- Elisabeth Werner will be a Caroline Herschel guest professor in our team during the summer term 2022. Jointly with Anna Gusakova we are organizing the Mini-Workshop Stochastic Aspects in Convexity.
- Holger Sambale and Nils Heerten join our team in October 2021. Welcome, we are happy to have you here!
- In September 2021 Anna Gusakova has started her position as a Junior Professor at the University of Münster and Gilles Bonnet has started his position as an Assistant Professor at the University of Groningen. Congratulations!
- In the winter term 2020/21 the SPP Research Seminar Ruhr makes its start.
- Our group and our former group members have contributed prerecorded talks at the Bernoulli-IMS One World Symposium 2020 , the Hausdorff Trimester Program and the digital GPSD 2021. Please watch the videos to learn more about our research:
