Welcome to the website of the group for probability theory!
The group is currently headed by Jun.-Prof. Peter Nejjarand represented by Dr. Tetiana Kosenkovaand Dr. Peter Keller. Prof. Dr. Christine Böckmann, Emerita from the research area of Nonlinear ill-posed inverse problems, as well as her doctoral studentUpeksha Pereraare also part of the group.The secretariat is represented by Ms. Antje Schulze.
The group is interested in questions of universality in stochastics, for example why do the same distributions appear in very different contexts, such as random matrices and random growth models? These questions are related to combinatorics, mathematical physics, as well as numerics and algebra. I am equally interested in the mixing behavior of Markov chains, in particular the cutoff phenomenon.
