The 10th conference on Bayesian Nonparametrics (BNP10) will be held in June 22-26, 2015 in Raleigh, NC. BNP10 will feature four special invited lectures, eight invited sessions, contributed talks and poster sessions. A proposal for a contributed talk or poster can be made through the conference website http://www.stat.duke.edu/bnp10/ and should consist of a title and an abstract. Slots for contributed talks are limited. Deadline for submission of a contributed talk is December 1, 2014, and decisions about acceptance are expected by January 15, 2015. Deadline for poster submission is May 1, 2015.

Fwd: Announcement Master Class in probability and planar statistical physics in Geneva
by Fabio Martinelli 07 Nov '14

07 Nov '14

Dear colleague, The university of Geneva is organizing a special Master program in probability and mathematical physics in collaboration with the ETH during the year 2015/2016. The aim of the program is to provide a small number of outstanding students with master-level courses in probability together with more advanced courses in the field of planar statistical physics. The program is aimed at Master students. Advanced undergraduates and beginning PhD students are also welcome. The participants will enroll in a one-year master program at the university of Geneva starting in September 2015. A number of fellowships covering accommodation and local expenses are available. *Additional information is available on the webpage of the program: http://nccr-swissmap.ch/master-class-2015 <http://www.nccr-swismap.ch/master-class-2015>* We would be very grateful if you would mention this program to potential candidates and encourage them to apply. For full consideration, apply using the web form (available on http://nccr-swissmap.ch/master-class-2015 <http://www.nccr-swismap.ch/master-class-2015>) before the 17th of January 2015. We also attached the poster of the program. If you need more information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Benoit Laslier (Cambridge) Titolo: Stochastic dynamics of discrete interfaces and dimer models. Mercoledi' 05 Novembre 2014 ORE 15:30 Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Universita' degli Studi Roma Tre AULA 311 (SEMINARI) Largo San L. Murialdo,1 Abstract We will study some effective models, called dimer models, for the interface between two coexisting thermodynamical phases in three dimension. We will show in a relatively general context that the time needed for the system to reach equilibrium is of order L^(2+o(1)), where L is the typical length scale of the system. The exponent 2 is optimal. More precisely, for surfaces attached to a curve drawn in some plane, we will control the mixing time for lozenge tilings and domino tilings (and a few other related models). For surfaces attached to a general curve, we will only work with lozenges and use a weaker notion of "macroscopic" convergence.
