Mini-Workshop: New Horizons in Motions in Random Media

Abstract

The general topic of the mini-workshop New Horizons in Motions in Random Media was the study of random walks in random environments, both in their own right and in relation to stochastic homogenization and to models in statistical mechanics, in particular spin system. This is a subject at the intersection of probability, analysis and mathematical physics, and the workshop brought together leading researchers from those areas. While each of these areas has been quite active for decades with many remarkable breakthroughs obtained throughout the years, the workshop provided a unique opportunity to identify principal new objectives and initiate new collaborations.
