OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
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.
