The CRC 1283 will host the conference
Gradient Flows, Large Deviation Theory, and Macroscopic Fluctuation Theory
June 17 — 21, 2024
Bielefeld University
The effective description of large systems of interacting particles and their fluctuations around their typical behaviour is a mathematical challenge and of fundamental importance in a variety of applications, ranging from mathematical modelling in the sciences, to the foundations of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and the dynamics of modern learning algorithms. Addressing these questions involves ideas from various disciplines in mathematics and physics. This workshop will bring together both leading experts and junior researchers from various fields, such as macroscopic fluctuation theory and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, interacting particle systems, large deviation theory, gradient flows and variational methods for partial differential equations, and stochastic partial differential equations.
The program will feature two lecture series and numerous invited talks by leading scientists of the different involved disciplines. In addition, there will be a poster session for young scientists to present their work.
In case of questions feel free to contact one of the organizers.
The conference takes place at ZIF - Center for interdisciplinary research.
