STOCHASTIC ACTIVITY MONTH

SUMMARY

The Stochastic Activity Month (SAM) with the theme, "Probability and Combinatorics", will take place at Eurandom during January 2014.

Besides the opening workshop Probability and Graphs, the SAM will incorporate several mini-courses -- "Graph limits", "Analysis of Boolean functions" and "Probabilistic aspects of Minimal Spanning Trees" -- and a short workshop "Networks with community structure". We also anticipate an active seminar series during the SAM and plenty of opportunities for interactions.
