• #### Central Limit Theorems for the Radial Spanning Tree ﻿

[OWP-2014-18] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2014)
Consider a homogeneous Poisson point process in a compact convex set in d-dimensional Euclidean space which has interior points and contains the origin. The radial spanning tree is constructed by connecting each point of ...
• #### 0935 - Challenges in Statistical Theory: Complex Data Structures and Algorithmic Optimization ﻿

[OWR-2009-39] (2009) - (23 Aug - 29 Aug 2009)
Technological developments have created a constant incoming stream of complex new data structures that need analysis. Modern statistics therefore means mathematically sophisticated new statistical theory that generates or ...
• #### 0739 - Coagulation and Fragmentation Models ﻿

[OWR-2007-46] (2007) - (23 Sep - 29 Sep 2007)
Analysis of coagulation and fragmentation is crucial to understanding many processes of scientific and industrial importance. In recent years this has led to intensified research activities in the areas of differential ...

[OWR-2009-23] (2009) - (26 Apr - 02 May 2009)
The effective application of probabilistic reasoning in the study of problems in diverse areas is one of the most exciting recent developments in Mathematics. Probabilistic methods turned out to be very powerful in Discrete ...
• #### 1616 - Combinatorics and Probability ﻿

[OWR-2016-22] (2016) - (17 Apr - 23 Apr 2016)
For the past few decades, Combinatorics and Probability Theory have had a fruitful symbiosis, each benefitting from and influencing developments in the other. Thus to prove the existence of designs, probabilistic methods ...
• #### 1316 - Combinatorics and Probability ﻿

[OWR-2013-18] (2013) - (14 Apr - 20 Apr 2013)
The main theme of this workshop was the use of probabilistic methods in combinatorics and theoretical computer science. Although these methods have been around for decades, they are being refined all the time: they are ...
• #### Contractive Idempotents on Locally Compact Quantum Groups ﻿

[OWP-2012-19] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2012)
A general form of contractive idempotent functionals on coamenable locally compact quantum groups is obtained, generalising the result of Greenleaf on contractive measures on locally compact groups. The image of a convolution ...
