Today's seminar will feature a talk by Alexander Roitershtein from Iowa State University. Alex will speak about interacting random walks on Z (full title and abstract below). See you this afternoon! Seminar Time & Location: 3:30pm in MSB 109A Title: On the range of the transient frog model on Z Abstract: I will discuss a one-dimensional ``frog model", an infinite system of interacting random walks on Z with an asymmetric underlying random walk. The talk will focus on results concerning the distribution of the models long-run range and its asymptotic behavior as the drift of the underlying random walk vanishes. This a joint work with my colleague at ISU Arka P. Ghosh and our PhD student Steven Noren. *Current & Upcoming Seminar Talks* * April 24 - Alexander Roitershtein (Iowa State University)* May 1 - Samuel Watson (MIT) May 8 - Hao Wu (MIT) -- *Dr. Matthew Badger*, Assistant Professor Department of Mathematics, University of Connecticut www.math.uconn.edu/~badger/
