Fwd: [owps] One World Probability Seminar
by Faggionato, Alessandra 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Buongiorno, vi giro il messaggio mandato alla mailing list del OWPS. Grazie per l'attenzione Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: Andreas Kyprianou <ak257(a)bath.ac.uk> Date: lun 18 gen 2021 alle ore 19:28 Subject: [owps] One World Probability Seminar To: <owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk> Dear All, (Apologies if you get this message more than once). Thank you for your ongoing support for the One World Probability Seminar. We would be grateful if you could please circulate the message below around your research networks, to help us reach probabilists who are not subscribers to the OWPS mailing list. Started last spring in response to the Covid-19 epidemic, the OWP seminar seeks to present top level speakers from around the world to a broad international audience of probabilists. It takes place each Thursday on Zoom and is simultaneously live streamed on YouTube (check the website to see the time in your local time zone). The weekly format is typically two talks on the same or related subjects, aimed at a broad audience. The first talk is usually a background talk, while the second highlights more contemporary research developments. You can find the details of the upcoming seminars, videos and slides of past- seminars, and instructions on how to subscribe to the OWPS mailing list on the OWPS website https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar The weekly seminars are announced to the mailing list the day before. We look forward to your participation in the seminar series this spring. Alessandra Faggionato and Amanda Turner (OWPS chairs, spring 2021)

Elizabeth Meckes
by Giovanni Peccati 16 Jan '21

16 Jan '21

Dear Colleagues, this is a slightly unusual message. As you probably know, Elizabeth Meckes - an expert in random matrix theory and Stein's method - died unexpectedly in December 2020 after a short illness, while on sabbatical in Oxford. She was 40 years old: https://thedaily.case.edu/remembering-professor-of-mathematics-elizabeth-me… Yesterday, during a conference in Bonn, Persi Diaconis (her former PhD advisor) gave a talk about Elizabeth, her research and her personality. It is a beautiful and very touching speech, yet able to convey the universal joy of doing research and mentoring young colleagues. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xldMG911NN0&feature=emb_logo All my best, Giovanni -- Prof. Giovanni Peccati ------------------------------------------ Head of the Department of Mathematics Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine ------------------------------------------ University of Luxembourg ----------------------------------------- homepage: http://sites.google.com/site/giovannipeccati/Home E-mail: giovanni.peccati(a)gmail.com

Fwd: [owps] One World Probability Seminar Thursday January 14, 2021
by Faggionato, Alessandra 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

Forwardo il messaggio sotto per chi non fosse iscritto alla OWPS mailing list. Buona serata Alessandra ---------- Forwarded message --------- Da: One World Probability <ow.probability(a)gmail.com> Date: mer 13 gen 2021 alle ore 18:27 Subject: [owps] One World Probability Seminar Thursday January 14, 2021 To: <owps(a)lists.bath.ac.uk> Tomorrow's speakers in the One World Probability Seminar are (Note: all times are in UTC. *Due to time changes, you should check what that translates to in your location*) ------------------------------------------------ (14:00-15:00 UTC) Speaker: Thomas Leblé (CNRS - Université de Paris (MAP5)) Title: Coulomb gases: a short introduction Abstract: Coulomb potentials are natural examples of systems with long-range interactions. They appear in statistical physics, random matrix theory, vortex systems, constructive approximation… and can be seen as a (possibly infinite) random collection of points that exhibit interesting stochastic features depending on the length scale and the temperature T. For example, their global arrangement is predicted by a mean field model and is found to be independent of T, whereas their local arrangement varies wildly with T while conserving strong, surprising rigidity properties all along. I will present some basic facts about the analysis of Coulomb gases and mention a few long-standing questions around which recent developments have taken place. (15:00-16:00 UTC) Sylvia Serfaty (NYU Courant) Title: Local laws and fluctuations for Coulomb gases Abstract: We are interested in the statistical mechanics of systems of N points with Coulomb interactions in general dimension for a broad temperature range. We discuss local laws characterizing the rigidity of the system at the microscopic level, as well as free energy expansion and Central Limit Theorems for fluctuations. ------------------------------------------------ The zoom link will appear the day before on the OWPS website: https://www.owprobability.org/one-world-probability-seminar <https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.owpro…> It can also be directly accessed through the link below: https://uniroma1.zoom.us/j/84008096626?pwd=N3MyYUFaMElvazIrS3hzNE1aSnRRZz09 <https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funiroma1.…> Please feel free to circulate this email.

Talk by Arturo Jaramillo [Jan 19, 4:30pm - Zoom]
by Maurizia Rossi 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

Dear all, I would like to announce the following online seminar that will take place next week via the Zoom platform. Best regards, Maurizia Rossi *Tuesday, Jan 19 - 4:30pm *(Rome time zone) Speaker: *Arturo Jaramillo Gil* (*CIMAT -* Centro de Investigación en matemáticas, Mexico) Title: *Quantitative Erdös-Kac theorem for additive functions* Summary: The talk will take as a starting point the celebrated Erdös-Kac theorem; a result of great importance in probabilistic number theory, which establishes that the fluctuations of the number of prime factors in a uniform sample over {1,..., n} are asymptotically Gaussian. Naturally, after the publication of this result, many quantitative versions of it have been studied. LeVeque conjectured that the optimal rate was asymptotically equivalent to loglog(n)^(-1/2). This was later proved by Turan and Rényi by means of an ingenious manipulation of the underlying characteristic function. Unfortunately, up to this day, all the perspectives for solving LeVeque's conjecture are based on the use of non-trivial complex analysis tools, while the probabilistic perspective has been only successfully applied to obtain suboptimal rates of convergence. In this talk, we will give a purely probabilistic proof of LeVeque's conjecture which will allow us to address the problem in a general fashion by means of Stein's method techniques. *Link Zoom* https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88100676046?pwd=NTFjdlAyVjdSTE8rVnBmUGVWelFPdz09 *Meeting ID*: 881 0067 6046 *Passcode*: 680246 - - - Maurizia Rossi Dipartimento di Matematica e Applicazioni Università di Milano-Bicocca
