[DMANET] Second announcemen YEP XVt: Information diffusion on random graphs

YEP XV: "Information diffusion on random graphs", to be held at Eurandom, Eindhoven, on March 25 - 29 2019.

The deadline to apply for funding to cover the local accommodation costs of junior participants is extended to January 31st.

Description of the workshop: This YEP workshop focuses on diffusion processes on networks, which manifest themselves in many real-life scenarios, such as epidemic spreading, viral marketing and power blackouts. The phenomenon of information diffusion recently attracted vast attention across a wide range of research fields, including mathematics, physics, computer science, and social sciences. Therefore, this YEP will focus not only on purely probabilistic aspects, but also take an algorithmic and application perspective. The aim of the workshop is to bring together junior and senior researchers from probability and from other fields, and to bridge the corresponding scientific communities.

Speakers:

Mini courses: Frank Ball, Mia Deijfen and Renaud Lambiotte.

Invited speakers: Julia Komjathy, Chi Tran, Eric Cator, Peter Mörters, Daniel Valesin, Naoki Masuda, Lasse Leskela, Marton Karsai, Rose Yu, Petter Holme, David Sirl, Claudio Castellano and Wei Chen.

Abstract submission: If you would like to apply for a contributed talk, you can submit your abstract during registration.

Funding: For this workshop, we have some budget to cover accommodation expenses. You can apply for funding until January 31st. For more information, see the website<https://www.eurandom.tue.nl/event/yep-xv-information-diffusion-on-random-networks/>.
