Fifth International Conference on High Dimensional Probability

会议，高维概率V（HDPV），将包括这样的主题，如极限定理，经验过程及其应用，概率不等式，不可分性（在几种情况下），小偏差，统计学习理论，自旋/玻璃方法，凸几何和应用以及随机矩阵和加法组合学。会议将包括正式和非正式的讨论和介绍。它不仅旨在介绍该领域的最新技术水平，而且还指出了重要的开放问题，并为该领域设定了新的方向。会议将汇集来自几个国家（美国，法国，德国，波兰，俄罗斯等）的数学家和统计学家，促进他们的科学交流和合作。传统上，青年教师、博士后和研究生以及妇女和少数民族都积极参加HDP会议。这一趋势将在本次会议上继续下去。以前的会议地点在欧洲和美国的网站之间交替，每隔三年举行一次。2005年的会议在新墨西哥州的圣达菲举行。2008年会议将在法国卢米尼国际数学会议中心举行。这是一个设备齐全的会议中心，将为我们提供容纳大量与会者的机会。

The conference, High Dimensional Probability V (HDPV), will include such topics as Limit Theorems, Empirical Processes and their Applications, Probability Inequalities, Infinitely Divisibility (in several contexts), Small Deviations, Statistical Learning theory, Spin/Glass Methods, Convex Geometry and Applications as well as Random Matrices and Additive Combinatorics. The meeting will consist of a mix of formal and informal discussions and presentations. It is not only intended to present the current state of the art in the field, but also to point out important open problems and to set new directions for the field. The conference will bring together mathematicians and statisticians from several countries (US, France, Germany, Poland, Russia,etc) facilitating their scientific exchanges and collaboration. Traditionally, there has been strong participation in HDP conferences of junior faculty, post docs and graduate students as well as women and minorities. This trend will continue at this meeting. The locations of the previous conferences have alternated between European and US sites in three years intervals. The 2005 meeting took place in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The 2008 meeting will be held at the Centre International de Rencontres Mathematiques (CIRM), Luminy, France. This is a very well equipped conference center that will provide us the opportunity to accommodate a large number of participants.
