On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Branching Brownian motion (BBM) has gained lots of attention in recent years in part due to its significance to the universality class of log-correlated fields and their extremal landscapes. Recently, J. Berestycki, K., Lubetzky, Mallein and Zeitouni obtained a description of the limiting point process of the extreme values and locations of BBM in dimensions 2 and higher; however, certain details of the extremal landscape of multidimensional BBM were washed out in that limit. In this talk, we describe a more precise limiting point process that recovers those details and gives rise to a new object in the study of BBM, what we call the extremal front. We then obtain a scaling limit for the extremal front. Joint work with Ofer Zeitouni.
