Abstract We begin by introducing the notion of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree. We will then present the main aspects of a theory, developed in two recent works with Armand Riera, that describes the evolution of this tree-indexed process between visits to 0. The theory applies to fairly general continuous Markov processes indexed by Lévy trees. Despite the radically different setting, we will see that our results share strong similarities with the celebrated Itô excursion theory for linear Brownian motion. If time permits, we will also discuss some applications to Brownian geometry.

Abstract Interacting particle systems provide flexible and powerful models that are useful in many application areas such as sociology (agents), molecular dynamics (proteins) etc. However, particle systems with large numbers of particles are very complex and difficult to handle, both analytically and computationally. Therefore, a common strategy is to derive effective equations that describe the time evolution of the empirical particle density. A prototypical example that we will consider is the formal identification of a finite system of particles with the singular Dean-Kawasaki equation. Our aim is to introduce a well-behaved nonlinear SPDE that approximates the Dean-Kawasaki equation for a particle system with mean-field interaction both in the drift and the noise term. We want to study the well-posedness of these nonlinear SPDE models and to control the weak error of the SPDE approximation with respect to the particle system using the technique of transport equations on the space of probability measures. This is the joint work with H. Kremp, N. Perkowski and J. Xiaohao.

Abstract We study the clusters of loops in a Brownian loop soup in some bounded two-dimensional domain with subcritical intensity θ ∈ (0, 1/2]. We obtain an exact expression for the asymptotic probability of the existence of a cluster crossing a given annulus of radii r and rs as r → 0 (s > 1 fixed). Relying on this result, we then show that the probability for a macroscopic cluster to hit a given disc of radius r decays like | log r|−1+θ+o(1) as r → 0. Finally, we characterise the polar sets of clusters, i.e. sets that are not hit by the closure of any cluster, in terms of logα-capacity.

Titel Fringe trees for random trees with given vertex degrees

Ort HG G 43
Abstract In this talk, we consider fringe trees of random plane trees with given vertex statistics (i.e., a given number of vertices of each degree). The main results are laws of large numbers and central limit theorems for the number of fringe trees of a given type. The key tool for our proofs is an extension to the multivariate setting of a theorem by Gao and Wormald (2004), which provides a way to show asymptotic normality by analyzing the behaviour of sufficiently high factorial moments. Our results also apply to random simply generated trees (or conditioned Galton–Watson trees) by conditioning on their degree statistic.

Titel On rigorous 1d versions of the laws of Kolmogorov’s theory of turbulence

Abstract In his celebrated theory of turbulence, created in 1941 and known as the K41 theory, A.N.Kolmogorov considered the velocity u(t,x) of a turbulent flow of fluid. Assuming that the Reynolds number of the flow is large, he studied the increments u(t,x+r)-u(t,x) of u and heuristically examined their statistical properties, summarised in a number of law of the K41 theory. I will talk about fictitious 1d fluid, described by the stochastic Burgers equation, consider increments of its velocity field and will rigorously derive for them analogies of the corresponding laws from Kolmogorov's theory, strikingly close to these laws.

Abstract In this talk we will look at some recent developments about integer partitions, including coloured partitions, semi-prime partitions and r-prime partitions. We will give asymptotic formulae for the number of these partitions. We will also look at some interesting elements of the proof of these formulae, without going into too much technical detail. In particular, we have a look at strange and pseudo-differentiable functions.
