Recent Trends in Continuous and Discrete Probability: Mon., Jun. 18 - Thurs., Jun. 21, 2018 at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, GA. The purpose of the conference is to bring researchers, including graduate students and postdocs, together to share recent results at the front of many areas of probability. The topics will include spatial stochastic systems, like percolation and spin systems, growth models, random matrices, stochastic differential equations, and stochastic homogenization. The conference is supported by the NSF. Main courses (4 lectures of 1 hour each) are given by Marek Biskup (UCLA) Jonathan Mattingly (Duke) Invited speakers include Louis-Pierre Arguin (CUNY) Rodrigo Bañuelos (Purdue) Fabrice Baudoin (Connecticut) Gerandy Brito (Georgia Tech) Shirshendu Ganguly (Berkeley) Jack Hanson (CUNY) David Herzog (Iowa State) Jessica Lin (McGill) Firas Rassoul-Agha (Utah) Philippe Sosoe (Cornell) We plan to have several 15-minute talks by graduate students, selected by application.
