Introduction The trimester at IHP is scheduled from April 3 to July 7, 2017. The pre-school at CIRM, scheduled from April 3 to April 7, 2017, aims at introducing the main themes of the trimester to its young participants, namely PhD students and post-doctoral fellows. Themes of the IHP trimester In statistical mechanics, it is common practice to use models of large interacting assemblies governed by stochastic dynamics. In this context "equilibrium" is understood as stochastically (time) reversible dynamics with respect to a prescribed Gibbs measure. The IHP trimester "Stochastic Dynamics Out of Equilibrium" will focus on the "out of equilibrium" aspect. Non-reversible dynamics have features which cannot occur at equilibrium and for which novel methods have to be developed. In the recent years there have been important advances in the three domains relevant to this trimester: (i) Transport in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics (ii) Towards more efficient simulation methods (iii) Life sciences and this has led to challenging open questions. The trimester at IHP aims at bringing together an audience coming from all the involved domains, to explore these new directions: physicists, mathematicians from various domains, computer scientists, as well as researchers working at the interface between biology, physics and mathematics. Pre-school at CIRM Since our goal during the trimester is to gather a mixed audience, it is important to offer various training opportunities for students and young researchers. The pre-school at CIRM will perfectly fit this goal, at the beginning of the trimester. We propose the following introductory courses on the general themes of the trimester: (i) An introduction to stochastic dynamics and interacting particle systems (ii) An introduction to statistical mechanics (iii) Numerical integration of stochastic dynamics of Langevin type (iv) An introduction to kinetic and stochastic models in life sciences. Each course will last 6 hours. Speakers
