Dear Colleagues,
We are glad to announce that the winter school Statistical Mechanics, Nonequilibrium Processes and Probability will take place on February 17-28, 2025 in Rome at the Mathematics Department of Sapienza University. The school will inaugurate the scientific Eccellenza program at Sapienza, titled Statistical Mechanics and Nonequilibrium Processes, which will end in June 2025 and will include workshops, doctoral courses and seminar series. The school and the scientific period will be devoted to several topics including kinetic theory and probability, random growth models, percolation, probabilistic models for neural networks, quantum-mechanical transport, non-dissipative transport in topological materials, large scale limits. The common substrate is the investigation of equilibrium and nonequilibrium phenomena and of statistical physics models, with rigorous mathematical methods. Our goal is to expand knowledge in these areas, by presenting current research directions at an introductory level and aimed at students and young researchers, and by fostering new lines of collaborative research. Lecturers of the February school: Week 1 (17-21 Feb) - Kazuo Aoki (National Cheng Kung University & Kyoto University) - Eric Carlen (Rutgers University) - Alessia Nota (University of L'Aquila) - Benjamin Schlein (University of Zurich)
Week 2 (24-28 Feb) - Paul Dario (University of Paris-Est Créteil) - Sabine Jansen (Ludwig Maximilian University) - Eva Löcherbach (University of Paris 1) - Fabio Toninelli (Technical University of Vienna) The school will include short talk sessions for early postdocs and PhD students.
Financial support will be available to a limited number of young participants. Requests for financial support will open in the fall.
The school is free but registration will be mandatory. In a future announcement we will provide the link for registering to the first and/or the second week.
For any information do not hesitate to contact us. The organising committee,
