Stochastic Analysis: A UK-China Workshop
25 – 29 July 2011
Loughborough University
Organizers:
David Elworthy (Warwick), Zhiming Ma (CAS, Beijing), Zhen Wu (Shandong) and Huaizhong Zhao (Loughborough).
Scientific Committee:
Mufa Chen (Beijing Normal), Terry Lyons (Oxford), James Norris (Cambridge), Shige Peng (Shandong), Aubrey Truman (Swansea), Jiaan Yan (CAS, Beijing).
Partially supported by the London Mathematical Society and Loughborough University
Workshop programme (The first lecture on Monday will start at 10:30).
Travel, local and accomodation information
UK and China have built strong research communities in stochastic analysis. There have already been many interactions and fruitful collaborations between researchers in this area from both of these countries. The aim of the workshop is to bring more British and Chinese researchers together to discuss recent work in stochastic analysis. During the week of the workshop, Professor Shige Peng will receive an honorary DSc degree from Loughborough University. The workshop will be in connection with this special event.
The conference will be particularly, though not exclusively, concerned with the following inter-related topics
a) Stochastic partial differential equations
b) Stochastic dynamical systems
c) Backward stochastic differential equations
d) Nonlinear expectation
e) Dirichlet forms
f) Rough paths
g) Stochastic differential geometry
The following people have confirmed to participate so far: AbdulRahman Al-Hussein (Warwick/Qassim) Dave Applebaum (Sheffield) Zdzislaw Brzezniak (York) Tom Cass (Oxford) Dan Crisan (Imperial) Zhao Dong (CAS, Beijing) Kai Du (Fudan) David Elworthy (Warwick) Chunrong Feng (Loughborough) Mohammud Foondun (Loughborough) Fuzhou Gong (CAS, Beijing) Martin Hairer (Warwick) Ben Hambly (Oxford) Robin Hudson (Loughborough) Niels Jacob (Swansea) Shaolin Ji (Shandong) Jozsef Lörinczi (Loughborough) Juan Li (Shandong U, Weihai) Xue-Mei Li (Warwick) Terry Lyons (Oxford) Zhiming Ma (CAS, Beijing) Neil O'Connell (Warwick) Shige Peng (Shandong) Zhongmin Qian (Oxford) Alexander Veretennikov (Leeds) Yufeng Shi (Shandong) Yongsheng Song (CAS, Beijing) Roger Tribe (Warwick) Jon Warren (Warwick) Zhen Wu (Shandong) Zhongxing Ye (Shanghai Jiaotong) Zhiyong Yu (Shandong) Qi Zhang (Fudan) Tusheng Zhang (Manchester) Huaizhong Zhao (Loughborough) Weidong Zhao (Shandong) Weian Zheng (ECN, Shanghai) Yang Zhou (Fudan)
We particularly encourage young researchers to participate in the workshop. We will arrange certain sessions for young people to speak. There will be a poster session on Tuesday afternoon, with posters displayed throughout the week. This should also help to ensure that young researchers find themselves interacting with other researchers.
There is a limited amount of funding to help with cost of campus accommodation and basic food for UK based PhD students and postdoctoral researchers to participate. If you would like to come to the workshop, please download and complete the Application Form and send it to Catherine Wright (c.wright@lboro.ac.uk) or to Louise Kitching (l.kitching@lboro.ac.uk) before 5 June 2011.
