MATH-GA.2931-001 Advanced Topics In Probability: Large Deviations And Interface Model (Oct. 10th Thru Nov.)

---

3 points

Course Description

The first few weeks will be devoted to a crash course on large deviations, with emphasis on the role of entropy. The second half of the course will be focused on models of interfaces (Gaussian and non-Gaussian) and their inter-relations (GFF, Villain, Coulomb gases), associated entropic repulsion, CLT's, and extremes.
