Probability theory forms the mathematical backbone for quantifying uncertainty and random events, providing a rigorous language with which to describe both everyday phenomena and complex scientific ...
In 1929, a few years prior to his colleague Kolmogorov's Grundbegriffe, the leading Russian probabilist Khinchin published a paper in which he commented on the foundational ambitions of von Mises' ...
We show that if ∂𝓡 is the boundary of the range of super-Brownian motion and dim denotes Hausdorff dimension, then with probability one, for any open set U, U ∩ ∂𝓡 ≠ ∅ implies dim( U∩∂R )={ 4−2 2 ≈1 ...
What makes a proof stronger than a guess? What does evidence look like in the realm of mathematical abstraction? Hear the mathematician Melanie Matchett Wood explain how probability helps to guide ...
