MFO-RIMS Tandem Workshop: Nonlocality in Analysis, Probability and Statistics

Abstract

The central theme of the workshop were nonlocal operators which appear in various branches of mathematics (PDEs, fractional calculus, stochastic processes, statistics). Although the basic concepts are similar, both language and methods differ depending on one’s own community. The aim of the workshop was to bring together leading researchers from these disciplines, in order to alert the different communities about the problems, methods, and progress achieved separately, and to bridge the gap caused by different background and different mathematical terminology.
