Conference Proposal: Frontier Probability Days 2014

2014年前沿概率日是一个为期三天的会议，将于2014年5月18日至20日在图森的亚利桑那大学举行。会议的目的是将概率理论及其应用方面的区域和国家领先研究人员、研究生和其他人聚集在一起，促进这一领域的互动和促进研究活动。形式包括7次全体会议和几个较短的发言。全体演讲者代表了概率及其应用方面的一系列领先工作。这次会议的主题包括无序和相互作用系统、随机矩阵、随机分析和概率在生物学和动力系统中的应用。这次会议大约每两年在美国西部的山间举行一次。这是大会的第四次会议。前三次会议分别于2007年(博尔德)、2009年(盐湖城)和2011年(盐湖城)成功举办。预计大约有40名外部参与者将来到图森参加会议。NSF的大部分支持将分配给学生和初级研究人员。这次会议的一个特点是它对“概率的应用”的关注。会议的部分目的是帮助扩大与其他领域的参与，这是概率研究更多应用和理论方面的灵感来源。会议网址：math.arizona.edu/~fpd/

Frontier Probability Days 2014 is a three day conference to be held at The University of Arizona, in Tucson, May 18 - 20, 2014. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together leading regional and national researchers in probability theory and its applications, graduate students and others, to foster interactions and stimulate research activity in this area. The format consists of 7 plenary talks and several shorter presentations. The plenary speakers represent a spectrum of leading work in probability and its applications. Topics of interest for the conference include disordered and interacting systems, random matrices, stochastic analysis and probabilistic applications to biology and dynamical systems.This conference meets approximately once every two years in the Intermountain West of the United States. This is the fourth meeting of the conference. The previous three meetings ran successfully in 2007 (Boulder), 2009 (Salt Lake City) and 2011 (Salt Lake City). Roughly, 40 outside participants are expected to come to Tucson for the conference. Much of the NSF support will be allocated to students and junior researchers. A special feature of the conference is its attention to "applications of probability." Part of the intent of the meeting is to help broaden participation with other fields, a source of inspiration for both more applied and theoretical aspects of probability research.
