During Michaelmas Term, OxTalks will be moving to a new platform (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Linear extensions of a poset $(X, \prec)$ of size $n$ are increasing bijections from $X$ to $\{1,…,n\}$. These linear extension generalize Young tableaux and various multi-dimensional random walks models. We will survey what is known about the asymptotic and probabilistic behavior of linear extensions and present our recent work on the subject. The talk is aimed at a general audience.
