This alumni programme allows sponsorship by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of long-term research collaborations between academics in Germany and abroad.
Brief summary of the scientific project:
Modern investigations in applied sciences, such as ecology, chemistry, hydrology, queuing theory, etc., demands mathematical models of dynamics involving non regular parameters. Nowadays, operator theory or stochastic dynamics with smooth coefficients evolving in domains with regular boundary is well-understood. However the irregular cases remain a big challenge to solve, either via analytical methods or via probabilistic methods. The close connection between the stochastic approach and the analytic one is well known since long time. For example, transition densities of solutions to stochastic differential equations (SDEs), exit moments or various functionals of solutions to SDEs are related with fundamental solutions, Green functions of the corresponding partial differential equations. Nevertheless in spite of rather elaborated technology from both mathematical domains in singular case there is a lack of adequate approaches. This challenge is the main issue of this project.
This Research Group Linkage provides funding mainly for reciprocal research visits and for scientific Conferences.
The first Conference took place inPotsdam (Am Neuen Palais, see the picture) April 1 - 3, 2019:
Workshop "Singular diffusions: analytic and stochastic approaches I"
See also the press article p. 33 in Portal 1/2019.
The second Conference was planed for 2020 but should be delayed due to the pandemic of Covid-19. It was then planed for the Spring 2022 but then cancelled because of the war in Ukraine.
Cooperation with University T. Shevchenko in Kyiv.
