New trends and applications around generalized Fokker-Planck operators

November 29, 2024 No Comments

New trends and applications around generalized Fokker-Planck operators

This 4-weeks scientific program will be oriented around four related topics:

1.  Hypoellipticity and various pseudodifferential methods
2.  Hodge type Laplacians and their hypoelliptic deformations
3.  Analysis of stochastic processes and applications to molecular dynamics and numerical methods
4.  Accurate spectral analysis of (non) self-adjoint, (hypo)elliptic operators.

 

The CIMPA and the Bernoulli Center collaborate to fund the participation of young researchers, including doctoral students and those who have completed their doctorate within the last 5 years or are under the age of 36. This opportunity is aimed at individuals based in developing countries, as defined by the IMU-CDC. You can find more information and how to apply on this page.

Representations, Moduli and Duality

December 5, 2024 No Comments

The programme consists of 5 weeks of research collaborations with one week-long school, one week-long conference and one workshop.

More information on this programme will be published shortly.

Summer School on the Mathematical Aspects of Data Science

May 19, 2025 No Comments

This summer school is part of the Bernoulli Center programme at EPFL, to be held from 1 to 5 September 2025.

The 2025 Summer School on the Mathematical Foundations of Data Science is designed for MSc and PhD students interested in the theoretical underpinnings of data science. As the second installment of a rotating international series (following the 2024 edition in Australia and preceding the 2026 edition in Singapore), the school offers a unique opportunity to learn from leading researchers at the interface of mathematics and machine learning. The confirmed speakers are Francis Bach, Afonso S. Bandeira, Stéphane Mallat, Andrea Montanari and Gabriel Peyré, who will cover topics ranging from structured prediction and random matrix theory to image generation, overfitting, and optimal transport. Participants can expect a rich program combining foundational insights with cutting-edge developments.

Call for Research Programs 2025

 

The Bernoulli Center calls for research program proposals in the areas of mathematics, theoretical physics, and/or theoretical computer science. The deadline for proposal submissions is June 16, 2024 and the period covered by the call is May to December 2025. 

Proposals should include the following information:

  1. Program name
  2. Names, short CV’s, and email addresses of organisers
  3. Duration of the program and preferred dates
    Programs can range from four to nine weeks in duration. Please do indicate your preferences regarding dates, but try to be as flexible as possible.
  4. Scientific program
    Give a detailed description of the proposed program, including an overview of the topic area, recent achievements, future research directions, timeliness of the proposal, relation to programmes held at other research institutes, etc. This should include a summary that is accessible to research mathematicians working in a completely unrelated field, as well as a more detailed (up to three pages) part accessible to experts working in adjacent areas.
  5. Program structure
    This should include a description of the planned activities like workshops (including number of participants and durations), weekly seminars, public lectures, minicourses, etc. We encourage you to contact colleagues working in your area at EPFL to explore the possibility of offering PhD level courses that can be counted for credit by EPFL students.
  6. Potential participants
    The list of potential participants should be about 15-25% longer than the proposed size of the program to account for cancellations. Ideally, potential long-term participants will already have been contacted for a tentative agreement. The center will provide shared office space for up to 10 researchers, with additional modular space available for discussions or shared desk space, and it can accommodate workshops / seminars with about 50 participants.
  7. Budget in CHF
    Please do include a detailed budget with your proposal. A guideline budget ranges from around CHF 80k for a four weeks programme to around CHF 140k for a nine weeks programme. Participants will be encouraged to use their own travel funds when possible.
Note: The SwissMap research station at Les Diablerets is located nearby and, depending on availabilities, can also be used to organise a workshop / retreat during a Bernoulli research programme.
 

Please send your proposal to Martin Hairer (martin.hairer@epfl.ch ) for consideration.

Send your proposal

The long-term research programs will start once the center expansions / renovations are completed.
