Summer school on Random Geometry, 8-12 August 2011

The purpose of the  summer school is to introduce PhD students
and young researchers to a selection of topics in Random Geometry
through lecture series by experts in the field.  It will consist of five lecture
courses of duration 3-5 lectures each. In addition, a number of contributed
research seminars will be organized.

 Lecture courses:

Maria Deijfen, Stockholm University: Random Graphs and Complex Networks

Bertrand Eynard, CEA Saclay: Enumeration of discrete surfaces in any topology

Geoffrey Grimmett, Cambridge University: Discrete random geometry: percolation and random animals

Richard Kenyon, Brown University: Geometrization of 2D statistical mechanical models

Kalle Kytola, Helsinki University: Random conformally invariant curves
 
  Seminars:

Des Johnston, Heriot-Watt University: Gonihedric Ising Models and their duals

John Wheater, Oxford University: Scale dependent processes on random graphs

Victor Babst, LPT-ENS Paris: On the spectrum of random regular graphs with random edge weights

Marcin Witkowski, University of Poznan: Topological cliques in random lifts of graphs
