OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We consider “weaves” – loosely, a weave is a set of non-crossing cadlag paths that covers 1+1 dimensional space-time. Here, we do not require any particular distribution for the particle motions. Weaves are a general class of random processes, of which the Brownian web is a canonical example; just as Brownian motion is a canonical example of a (single) random path. It turns out that the space of weaves has an interesting geometric structure in its own right, which will be the focus of the talk. This structure provides key information that leads to an accessible theory of weak convergence for general weaves. Joint work with Jan Swart.
