Jerzy Neyman's life history and some of his contributions to applied statistics are reviewed. In a 1960 article he wrote: ``Currently in the period of dynamic indeterminism in science, there is hardly a serious piece of research which, if…

We revisit one of Zilber's early results in model-theoretic algebra, viz. definability in Schur's lemma. This takes place in a broader context than the original version from the seventies. The present exposition contains results extracted…

An analytic method is proposed to compute the surface energy and elementary excitations of the XXZ spin chain with generic non-diagonal boundary fields. For the gapped case, in some boundary parameter regimes the contributions of the two…

We study a system of two reflected SPDEs which share a moving boundary. The equations describe competition at an interface and are motivated by the modelling of the limit order book in financial markets. The derivative of the moving…

Loss functions are a cornerstone of machine learning and the starting point of most algorithms. Statistics and Bayesian decision theory have contributed, via properness, to elicit over the past decades a wide set of admissible losses in…

We study the generic problem of the escape of a classical particle over a fluctuating barrier under the influence of non-Gaussian noise mimicking the effects of not-fully equilibrated bath. Our attention focuses on the effect of the stable…

This is a rather personal review of the problem of self-avoiding walks and polygons. After defining the problem, and outlining what is known rigorously and what is merely conjectured, I highlight the major outstanding problems. I then give…

We study the well-posedness of a coupled system of Skorohod-like stochastic differential equations with reflecting boundary condition. The setting describes the evacuation dynamics of a mixed crowd composed of both active and passive…

This Focus Issue Global Bifurcations, Chaos, and Hyperchaos Theory and Applications is dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the great mathematician, one of the founding fathers of dynamical chaos theory, Leonid Pavlovich Shilnikov.

This statistical physics thesis focuses on the study of three kinds of systems which display repulsive interactions: eigenvalues of random matrices, non-crossing random walks and trapped fermions. These systems share many links, which can…

Professor Chen Ning Yang has made seminal and influential contributions in many different areas in theoretical physics. This talk focuses on his contributions in statistical mechanics, a field in which Professor Yang has held a continual…

This book is a collection of papers dedicated to the memory of Yehuda Vardi. Yehuda was the chair of the Department of Statistics of Rutgers University when he passed away unexpectedly on January 13, 2005. On October 21--22, 2005, some 150…

The trace approximation problem for Toeplitz matrices and its applications to stationary processes dates back to the classic book by Grenander and Szeg\"o, "Toeplitz forms and their applications". It has then been extensively studied in the…

In the framework inspired by R. L. Hughes model (Transp. Res. B, 2002) for pedestrian evacuation in a corridor, we establish existence of a solution by a topological fixed point argument. This argument applies to a class of models where the…

Automatic differentiation (AD) is a critical step in physics-informed machine learning, required for computing the high-order derivatives of network output w.r.t. coordinates of collocation points. In this paper, we present a novel and…

Joel Scherk (1946--1980) was an important early contributor to the development of string theory. Together with various collaborators, he made numerous profound and influential contributions to the subject throughout the decade of the 1970s.…

In 1924, S. N. Bose proposed (i) a new counting method for photons and (ii) a probabilistic law of microscopic matter-radiation interactions, treating emission and absorption as two aspects of a single, field-dependent process. While…

This paper is devoted to the computation of transmission eigenvalues in the inverse acoustic scattering theory. This problem is first reformulated as a two by two boundary system of boundary integral equations. Next, utilizing the Schur…

Egbert Brieskorn died on July 11, 2013, a few days after his 77th birthday. He was an impressive personality who has left a lasting impression on all who knew him, whether inside or outside of mathematics. Brieskorn was a great…

The development of a mathematics for living systems is one of the most challenging prospects of this century. The search began with the pioneering contribution of Ilia Prigogine, who developed methods from statistical physics to describe…
