In recent years, random matrices have come to play a major role in computational mathematics, but most of the classical areas of random matrix theory remain the province of experts. Over the last decade, with the advent of matrix…
The past two decades have witnessed a surge of new research in the analysis of randomized experiments. The emergence of this literature may seem surprising given the widespread use and long history of experiments as the "gold standard" in…
This paper describes some of the ideas used in the development of our work on small gaps between primes.
The study of several naturally arising "nearest neighbours" random walks benefits from the study of the associated orthogonal polynomials and their orthogonality measure. I consider extensions of this approach to a larger class of random…
The models surveyed include generalized P\'{o}lya urns, reinforced random walks, interacting urn models, and continuous reinforced processes. Emphasis is on methods and results, with sketches provided of some proofs. Applications are…
A brief history, the current state, and future directions of spin mechanics are presented.
In this paper I survey some recent results on finite determination, convergence, and approximation of formal mappings between real submanifolds in complex spaces. A number of conjectures are also given.
This is a brief survey of classical and recent results about the typical behavior of eigenvalues of large random matrices, written for mathematicians and others who study and use matrices but may not be accustomed to thinking about…
These are lecture notes of the 48th Saint-Flour summer school, July 2018, on the topic of planar maps, random walks and the circle packing theorem.
The following is a short report about recent work on discrete physics/mathematics on the Planckscale and the use of the concept of ''random graphs'' in this business, appearing in the group21-proceedings (Gosslar 1996)
Random walks in random environments (RWRE's) have been a source of surprising phenomena and challenging problems since they began to be studied in the 70's. Hitting times and, more recently, certain regeneration structures, have played a…
We form a "map of tournaments" by adapting the map framework from the world of elections. By a tournament we mean a complete directed graph where the nodes are the players and an edge points from a winner of a game to the loser (with no…
As suggested by the title, this paper is a survey of recent results and questions on the collection of computably enumerable sets under inclusion. This is not a broad survey but one focused on the author's and a few others' current…
Random Matrix theory has become a field on its own with a breadth of new results, techniques, and ideas in the last thirty years. In these proceedings of the 8ECM 2021, I illustrate some of these advances by describing what is known about…
These are notes based on a course that I gave at the University of Chicago in Fall 2016 on "Loop measures and the loop-erased random walk." This is not intended to be a comprehensive view but rather a personal selection of some key ideas…
Random feature maps are ubiquitous in modern statistical machine learning, where they generalize random projections by means of powerful, yet often difficult to analyze nonlinear operators. In this paper, we leverage the "concentration"…
In this short survey we report on the theory of biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds.
We present an overview of selected topics in random permutations and random partitions highlighting analogies with random matrix theory.
This paper presents an overview of the current state of knowledge in the field of equivariant map algebras and discusses some open problems in this area.
Let $L$ be a simplicial complex. In this paper, we study random sub-hypergraphs and random sub-complexes of $L$. By considering the minimal complex that a sub-hypergraph can be embedded in and the maximal complex that can be embedded in a…
