Gady Kozma
Gady Kozma is an Israeli mathematician. Kozma obtained his PhD in 2001 at the University of Tel Aviv with Alexander Olevskii. He is a scientist at the Weizmann Institute. In 2005, he demonstrated the existence of the scaling limit value (that is, for increasingly finer lattices) of the ''loop-erased random walk'' in three dimensions and its invariance under rotations and dilations. A loop-erased random walk consists of a random walk, whose loops, which form when it intersects itself, are removed. This was introduced to the study of self-avoiding random walk by Gregory Lawler in 1980, but is an independent model in another universality class. In the two-dimensional case, conformal invariance was proved by Lawler, Oded Schramm and Wendelin Werner (with Schramm–Loewner evolution) in 2004. The cases of four and more dimensions were treated by Lawler, the scale limiting value is Brownian motion, in four dimensions. Kozma treated the two-dimensional case in 2002 with a new met ...

Loop-erased Random Walk
In mathematics, loop-erased random walk is a model for a random simple path with important applications in combinatorics, physics and quantum field theory. It is intimately connected to the uniform spanning tree, a model for a random tree. See also ''random walk'' for more general treatment of this topic. Definition Assume ''G'' is some graph and \gamma is some path of length ''n'' on ''G''. In other words, \gamma(1),\dots,\gamma(n) are vertices of ''G'' such that \gamma(i) and \gamma(i+1) are connected by an edge. Then the loop erasure of \gamma is a new simple path created by erasing all the loops of \gamma in chronological order. Formally, we define indices i_j inductively using :i_1 = 1\, :i_=\max\+1\, where "max" here means up to the length of the path \gamma. The induction stops when for some i_j we have \gamma(i_j)=\gamma(n). Assume this happens at ''J'' i.e. i_J is the last i_j. Then the loop erasure of \gamma, denoted by \mathrm(\gamma) is a simple path of length ''J'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Schramm–Loewner Evolution
In probability theory, the Schramm–Loewner evolution with parameter ''κ'', also known as stochastic Loewner evolution (SLE''κ''), is a family of random planar curves that have been proven to be the scaling limit of a variety of two-dimensional lattice models in statistical mechanics. Given a parameter ''κ'' and a domain in the complex plane ''U'', it gives a family of random curves in ''U'', with ''κ'' controlling how much the curve turns. There are two main variants of SLE, ''chordal SLE'' which gives a family of random curves from two fixed boundary points, and ''radial SLE'', which gives a family of random curves from a fixed boundary point to a fixed interior point. These curves are defined to satisfy conformal invariance and a domain Markov property. It was discovered by as a conjectured scaling limit of the planar uniform spanning tree (UST) and the planar loop-erased random walk (LERW) probabilistic processes, and developed by him together with Greg Lawler and Wendel ...

The Anna and Lajos Erdős Prize in Mathematics is a prize given by the Israel Mathematical Union to an Israeli mathematician (in any field of mathematics and computer science), "with preference to candidates up to the age of 40." The prize was established by Paul Erdős in 1977 in honor of his parents, and is awarded annually or biannually.

Rollo Davidson Prize
The Rollo Davidson Prize is a prize awarded annually to early-career probabilists by the Rollo Davidson trustees. It is named after English mathematician Rollo Davidson (1944–1970). Rollo Davidson Trust In 1970, Rollo Davidson, a Fellow-elect of Churchill College, Cambridge died on Piz Bernina, a mountain in Switzerland. In 1975, a trust fund was established at Churchill College in his memory, endowed initially through the publication in his honour of two volumes of papers, edited by E. F. Harding and D. G. Kendall. The Rollo Davidson Trust has awarded an annual prize to young probabilists since 1976, and has organized occasional lectures in honour of Davidson. Since 2012 the Trust has also awarded an annual Thomas Bond Sprague Prize.http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/reporter/2011-12/weekly/6273/section12.shtml#heading2-35 Cambridge University Reporter CLXII no 38 List of recipients of the Rollo Davidson Prize * 1976 – Brian D.
