50 years in probability - A workshop in honor of Erwin Bolthausen

26 Mar 2026

Chiara Saffirio (UniBas) is part of the organising committee of the workshop 50 Years in Probability - A Workshop in Honor of Erwin Bolthausen (UZH), taking place from 9 to 11 June 2026 at UniDistance Suisse in Brig.

The event celebrates the scientific contributions of Erwin Bolthausen on the occasion of his 80th birthday.

His scientific journey has touched many of the milestones in the development of probability theory over the past 50 years, spanning interacting particle systems, scaling limits, large deviations, and lattice models in statistical mechanics, as well as spin glasses, disordered systems, log-correlated random fields, and random walks in random environments, among others. While honoring Erwin's contributions, the meeting also aims to illuminate future directions in probability theory and statistical mechanics.

Registration is required for all participants, regardless of the number of days attended.
