Random Walks with Memory
May 29 – June 2, 2017
|
Non-Markovian random walks have emerged as central topics in modern probability, including models with long-memory effects produced by self-interaction or the influence of random media.
These models provide a variety of complex large-‐scale disordered phenomena with motivations arising from fields such as physics, biology and engineering. Deep relations have emerged or are conjectured with quantum field theory, the KPZ universality class and the theory of Anderson localization. This meeting will emphasize non-‐reversible random walks in random environments and self-interacting random walks, for which fundamental questions have resisted repeated and persistent attempts to answer them. On the other hand, recent groundbreaking results have been obtained. We propose to organize a workshop gathering the world-‐experts on this and related fields with the objective of producing a decisive impulse on these challenges. |
