    • A Quantitative Analysis of the “Lion-Man” Game 

      [OWP-2019-18] Kohlenbach, Ulrich; López-Acedo, Genaro; Nicolae, Adriana (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-07-08)
      In this paper we analyze, based on an interplay between ideas and techniques from logic and geometric analysis, a pursuit-evasion game. More precisely, we focus on a discrete lion and man game with an $\varepsilon$-capture ...
    • Quantities that frequency-dependent selection maximizes 

      [OWP-2008-18] Matessi, Carlo; Schneider, Kristian (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-18)
      We consider a model of frequency-dependent selection, to which we refer as the Wildcard Model, that accommodates as particular cases a number of diverse models of biologically specific situations. Two very different ...
    • Quantum diffusion 

      [SNAP-2015-014-EN] Knowles, Antti (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015)
      If you place a drop of ink into a glass of water, the ink will slowly dissipate into the surrounding water until it is perfectly mixed. If you record your experiment with a camera and play the film backwards, you will see ...
    • Quantum symmetry 

      [SNAP-2020-005-EN] Weber, Moritz (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-06-04)
      In mathematics, symmetry is usually captured using the formalism of groups. However, the developments of the past few decades revealed the need to go beyond groups: to “quantum groups”. We explain the passage from ...
    • Quantum symmetry 

      [SNAP-2020-009-EN] Caspers, Martijn (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-12-31)
      The symmetry of objects plays a crucial role in many branches of mathematics and physics. It allowed, for example, the early prediction of the existence of new small particles. “Quantum symmetry” concerns a generalized ...
    • Quasi-Equilibria and Click Times for a Variant of Muller's Ratchet 

      [OWP-2022-18] González Casanova, Adrian; Smadi, Charline; Wakolbinger, Anton (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2022-11-30)
      Consider a population of $N$ individuals, each of them carrying a type in $\mathbb N_0$. The population evolves according to a Moran dynamics with selection and mutation, where an individual of type $k$ has the same selective ...
    • Quotients of Index Two and General Quotients in a Space of Orderings 

      [OWP-2011-36] Gladki, Pawel; Marshall, Murray (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2011-05-30)
      In this paper we investigate quotient structures and quotient spaces of a space of orderings arising from subgroups of index two. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a quotient structure to be a quotient ...
    • Random dynamics of transcendental functions 

      [OWP-2014-12] Mayer, Volker; Urbański, Mariusz (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014-08-20)
      This work concerns random dynamics of hyperbolic entire and meromorphic functions of finite order and whose derivative satisfies some growth condition at infinity. This class contains most of the classical families of ...
    • 2313 - Random Graphs: Combinatorics, Complex Networks and Disordered Systems 

      [OWR-2023-16] (2023) - (26 Mar - 31 Mar 2023)
      Since the turn of the millennium the theory of random graphs has advanced by leaps and bounds. Random graphs have found very many applications, and many unexpected applications, in a remarkable variety of disciplines, and ...
    • 0044 - Random Matrices 

      [TB-2000-43] (2000) - (29 Oct - 04 Nov 2000)
    • 1950 - Random Matrices 

      [OWR-2019-56] (2019) - (08 Dec - 14 Dec 2019)
      Large complex systems tend to develop universal patterns that often represent their essential characteristics. For example, the cumulative effects of independent or weakly dependent random variables often yield the Gaussian ...
    • 1118 - Random Matrices, Geometric Functional Analysis and Algorithms 

      [OWR-2011-24] (2011) - (01 May - 07 May 2011)
      The workshop gathered close to 50 participants on the topics of random matrix theory, high dimensional convex geometry and probabilistic methods in theoretical computer science. It favored cooperation between researchers ...
    • Random matrix theory: Dyson Brownian motion 

      [SNAP-2020-002-EN] Finocchio, Gianluca (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2020-04-15)
      The theory of random matrices was introduced by John Wishart (1898–1956) in 1928. The theory was then developed within the field of nuclear physics from 1955 by Eugene Paul Wigner (1902–1995) and later by Freeman John ...
    • 0344 - Random Media 

      [TB-2003-47] (2003) - (26 Oct - 01 Nov 2003)
    • Random permutations 

      [SNAP-2019-007-EN] Betz, Volker (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-07-12)
      100 people leave their hats at the door at a party and pick up a completely random hat when they leave. How likely is it that at least one of them will get back their own hat? If the hats carry name tags, how difficult ...
    • Random sampling of domino and lozenge tilings 

      [SNAP-2016-002-EN] Fusy, Éric (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2016)
      A grid region is (roughly speaking) a collection of “elementary cells” (squares, for example, or triangles) in the plane. One can “tile” these grid regions by arranging the cells in pairs. In this snapshot we review different ...
    • 9935 - Random Systems 

      [TB-1999-35] (1999) - (29 Aug - 04 Sep 1999)
    • 0904 - Random Trees 

      [OWR-2009-3] (2009) - (18 Jan - 24 Jan 2009)
      The meeting was devoted to random trees, a central concept in mathematics that provides a key way of thinking about relationships between objects such as particles in a fluid, individuals in a population, or labels in a ...
    • Rank Deviations for Overpartitions 

      [OWP-2023-11] Lovejoy, Jeremy; Osburn, Robert (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2023-07-12)
      We prove general fomulas for the deviations of two overpartition ranks from the average, namely \begin{equation*} \overline{D}(a, M) := \sum_{n \geq 0} \Bigl( \overline{N}(a, M, n) - \frac{\overline{p}(n)}{M} \Bigr) q^n ...
    • Rate of Convergence of the Density Estimation of Regression Residual 

      [OWP-2012-08] Györfi, László; Walk, Harro (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2012)
      Consider the regression problem with a response variable $Y$ and with a $d$-dimensional feature vector $X$. For the regression function $m(x) = \mathbb{E}\{Y|X = x\}$, this paper investigates methods for estimating the ...
