Description

Discrete structures are omnipresent in mathematics, computer science, statistical physics, optimisation and models of natural phenomena. For instance, complex random graphs serve as a model for social networks or the world wide web. Such structures can be descriptions of objects that are intrinsically discrete or they occur as an approximation of continuous objects. An intriguing feature of random discrete structures is that the models exhibit complex macroscopic behaviour, phase transitions in a wide sense, making the field a rich source of challenging mathematical questions. In this topic we will concentrate on three strands of random discrete structures that combine various research interests and expertise present in Münster.

KeywordsMathematics; Model theory and set theory; Operator algebras and mathematical physics; Analysis of partial differential equations; Stochastic analysis; Theory of stochastic processes
