List of publications, courses, projects

The Department concentrates on mathematical research in the following areas.

  • Information in statistical experiments and optimal statistical decisions (estimation, testing, classification), with emphasis on maximum entropy, minimum divergence methods, and asymptotic theory.
  • Robust statistical procedures and their applications in various statistical environments, including adaptivity and selforganization. Regression analysis.
  • Statistical inference in random processes and random fields. Applications in stochastic optimization, change-point, optimum investment portfolios, and image and speech processing.
  • Stochastic partial differential equations, particle systems.

Ivo Vrkoč will celebrate his eightieth birthday on June 10, 2011. On this occasion, Ivo’s former students and recent coauthors decided to organise a small colloquium devoted to some of the topics Ivo has contributed to significantly, namely the qualitative theory of ordinary differential equations and stochastic analysis.
