* 19–20 DIMACS Workshop on Algorithmic Information Fusion and
Data Mining (WAIFDM), DIMACS Center, CoRE Building, Rutgers
University, Piscataway, New Jersey.
Description: Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus
on Algorithmic Decision Theory and in partnership with the Eu-
ropean Consortium ALGODEC. Information fusion and data min-
ing are fundamental in the scientific discovery process of data
acquisition, information integration, and knowledge discovery.
Although methods for information fusion and data mining have
been used for hundreds of years, it remains a challenging prob-
lem to understand when, what, and how to optimally mine data,
fuse information and discover knowledge. Among others, the DI-
MACS Workshop on Algorithmic Information Fusion and Data Min-
ing (WAIFDM) will address the following two types of problems:
Given a complex problem in a data-rich environment, how to extract
variables and how to perform variable selection and combination? Here
“variable” includes feature, attribute, cue, indicator, and parameter.
Given two machine learning or data mining systems A and B, when
and how to best combine A and B? Given many possible decisions
systems for a solution, how to best select and combine a subset of
these systems?

* 24 ICERM Public Lecture: On Growth and Form: Mathematics,
Physics and Biology, Salomon Hall, Brown University, Providence,
Rhode Island.
Description: The diversity of living forms led Darwin to state that it
is “enough to drive the sanest man mad”. How can we describe this
variety? How can we understand the origin and evolution of these
“endless forms most beautiful?” And how do these forms link to
function and physiology at the organismic level and beyond? Math-
ematics, and geometry in particular, provides a natural language to
express these questions and answer them. Motivated by biological
observations on different scales from molecules to organisms to
swarms, I will show how a combination of quantitative experiments,
physical analogies, mathematical theories and computational mod-
els allow us to begin to unravel the mechanistic basis for aspects
of morphogenesis and thence towards physiology, pathophysiology
and biomimetics.
Speaker: L. Mahadevan, Harvard University.

* 28–29 Connections for Women: Geometric Representation Theory,
Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berkeley, California.
Description: Within the broad range of geometric representation
theory, the Connections Workshop will focus on three research
topics in which we expect particularly striking new developments
within the next few years: Categorical and geometric structures in
representation theory and Lie superalgebras; Geometric construction
of representations via Shimura varieties and related moduli spaces;
Hall algebras and representations. The workshop will bring together
researchers from these different topics within geometric representa-
tion theory and will thus facilitate a successful start of the semester
program. It will give junior researchers from each of these parts of
geometric representation theory a broader picture of possible appli-
cations and of new developments, and will establish a closer contact
between junior and senior researchers. This workshop is aimed at
encouraging and increasing the active participation of women and
members of under-represented groups in the MSRI program.

November 2014
* 17–21 Categorical Structures in Harmonic Analysis Workshop,
Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, Berkeley, California.
Description: The workshop will focus on the role of categorical
structures in number theory and harmonic analysis, with an empha-
sis on the setting of the Langlands program. Celebrated examples
of this theme range from Lusztig’s character sheaves to Ngo’s proof
of the Fundamental Lemma. The workshop will be a forum for re-
searchers from a diverse collection of fields to compare problems
and strategies for solutions.

December 2014
* 1–5 Automorphic forms, Shimura varieties, Galois representa-
tions and L-functions, Mathematical Sciences Research Institute,
Berkeley, California.
Description: L-functions attached to Galois representations com-
ing from algebraic geometry contain subtle arithmetic information
(conjectures of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer, Deligne, Beilinson, Bloch
and Kato, Fontaine and Perrin-Riou). Langlands has predicted the
existence of a correspondence relating these L-functions to L-func-
tions of automorphic forms which are much better understood. The
workshop will focus on recent developments related to Langlands
correspondence (construction of Galois representations attached to
automorphic forms via the cohomology of Shimura varieties, modu-
larity of Galois representations...) and arithmetic of special values
of L-functions. It will be dedicated to Michael Harris as a tribute to
his enormous influence on the themes of the workshop.

This book covers the basics of modern
probabilitytheory. Itbeginswith probability
theory on finite and countable sample
spaces and then passes from there to a
concise courseon measure theory, which is
followedbysomeinitialapplicationstoprobability theory, including
independenceand conditionalexpectations.Thesecond half ofthe
book deals with Gaussian randomvariables, with Markov chains,
with a few continuous parameter processes, including Brownian
motion, and, finally, with martingales, both discrete and continuous
parameter ones.
The book is a self-contained introduction toprobabilitytheoryand
themeasure theory required tostudyit.
Contents:Somebackgroundandpreliminaries;Probabilitytheory

theory;Thecentrallimittheorem andGaussian distributions; Discrete
parameter stochastic processes;Some continuous-time processes;

This book is intended for researchers interested in new aspects
of local behavior of plane mappings and their applications. The
presentation isself-contained,but the reader is assumed to know
basic complex and real analysis.
The studyof the local and boundary behavior of quasiconformal
and bi-Lipschitz mappings in the plane forms the core of the book.
The concept of the infinitesimal space is used to investigate the
behavior of a mapping at points without differentiability. This
concept,based on compactnessproperties, isapplied to regularity
problemsofquasiconformalmappings and quasiconformal curves,
boundary behavior, weak and asymptotic conformality, local
winding properties, variation of quasiconformal mappings, and
criteria of univalence.Quasiconformal and bi-Lipschitz mappings
are instrumental for understanding elasticity,control theory and
tomography, and the book also offers anewlookattheclassicalareas
such as the boundaryregularity of a conformal map. Complicated
local behavior isillustrated by many examples.
Thetextoffersa detaileddevelopmentofthe backgroundfor graduate
studentsandresearchers. Startingwith the classical methodstostudy
quasiconformalmappings,thistreatmentadvancesto the concept
of the infinitesimal space and then relates it to other regularity
propertiesof mappings in PartII.The new unexpected connections
between quasiconformal and bi-Lipschitz mappings are treated in
PartIII. There isanextensivebibliography.
This item will also be of interest to those working in differential
equations.
