Chair
> ​Prof. Robert TICHY
​Technische Universität Graz
Robert Tichy is interested in analysis and number theory. A focus of his research lies on asymptotic analysis of discrete structures, arithmetic dynamical systems, diophantine equations and on discrepancy theory. Furthermore he is interested in probabilistic aspects of number theory, quasi Monte-Carlo methods and applications in finance and insurance.
Local Project Leader
> Prof. Joël RIVAT
Aix-Marseille Université
Joël Rivat is Professor at Aix-Marseille University at the I2M (Institut de Mathématiques de Marseille) department. He is a member of the team focusing on Groups, Dynamics, Arithmetics and Combinatorics. His main research interests lie in exponential sums, prime numbers in sparse sequences, additive, multiplicative problems, digital properties of sequences (primes, squares, etc.) and pseudorandom sequences.
