Autorentext

Jean-François Le Gall is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Paris-Saclay in France. As one of the leading experts in probability theory, he has done extensive research on stochastic processes, including Brownian motion, random trees, random planar maps, and other related objects. His research accomplishments have been recognized with various awards, most recently the Wolf prize. He is the author of two successful textbooks on Brownian Motion, Martingales, and Stochastic Calculus (2016) in the Graduate Texts in Mathematics series and Spatial Branching Processes, Random Snakes and Partial Differential Equations (1999) in the Lectures in Mathematics, ETH Zürich series.
