EMS Lectures


The European Mathematical Society invites a distinguished mathematician, in each odd-numbered year, to visit an institution within the area covered by the EMS, to give a series of three to five lectures of an advanced expository nature on a topic of current research interest.

The EMS Lecturer of 1997 is Professor Nigel Cutland (University of Hull). He will give his EMS Lectures at the University of Helsinki on May 27 - June 2, 1997, with the title

Loeb Measures in Practice: Recent Advances

He will outline the Loeb measure construction of nonstandard analysis, and discuss recent applications in stochastic fluid mechanics, finance theory and stochastic calculus of variations (Malliavin calculus and related topics).

As part of this programme he gives, on his way to Helsinki, some lectures at the University of Gothenburg on May 23 and May 26, 1997.
