Seminar on Stochastic processes 2014

该奖项支持将于2014年3月26日至29日在加州大学圣地亚哥分校举行的2014年随机过程研讨会(SSP)。这些研讨会自1981年以来每年举行一次；它们已成为北美概率学家最重要的定期会议系列。他们聚集了一群在概率和随机过程中有成就的研究人员和年轻的研究人员。主要目标是为传播最新的重大研究进展提供一个平台，并使与会者能够在非正式的气氛中讨论他们的工作。随机过程研讨会是概率学中的固定课程，许多最著名的概率学家都习惯于每年参加。上午的特邀演讲为该领域的最新发展提供了一个平台。此外，下午会议的非正式形式为研究生和年轻研究人员提供了一个独特的机会，通过参与高级别的公开讨论，并通过提供机会向各自领域的领导者展示他们自己的研究，使自己接触到最新的研究趋势。这一原始方案所带来的协同效应在更传统的会议中是很少见的。将优先向研究生、博士后、女性和少数族裔以及其他可能无法参加会议的初级教职员工提供参加会议的财政支持。会议网址为：http://depts.washington.edu/ssproc/ssp_nextssp.php。

This award supports the conference Seminar on Stochastic Processes (SSP) 2014 to be held at the University of California-San Diego on March 26-29, 2014. These seminars have been held annually since 1981; they have become the most important regular conference series for probabilists in North America. They bring together a diverse group of accomplished researchers and young investigators in probability and stochastic processes. The primary goal is to provide a platform for the dissemination of the most recent significant progress in research, and to enable participants to discuss their work in an informal atmosphere. The Seminar on Stochastic Processes is a fixture in probability, and many of the most prominent probabilists make a habit of attending it every year. The morning invited presentations provide a platform for the latest developments in the field. Moreover, the informal format of the afternoon sessions gives graduate students and young researchers a unique opportunity to expose themselves to the most recent research trends by engaging in high level open discussions, and by offering the opportunity to present their own research to leaders in their field. The synergy made possible by this original formula is very rarely found in more traditional meetings. Financial support to attend the conference will preferentially be given to graduate students, postdocs, women, and minorities, as well as to junior faculty who may not otherwise be able to attend the conference.
