Dynamics of Complex and Irregular Systems - Bielefeld Encounters in Mathematics and Physics VIII

The papers presented in this volume cover a number of different aspects of stochastic analysis, probability theory, quantum field theory, functional integration, ergodic theory, quantum theory, statistical modelling, random graph theory and percolation theory. The lectures also point out strong interactions between various fields: the fertility of the relations between probability theory and quantum theory and the intriguing and economical way of deriving the classical standard model by using non-commutative geometry, in the approach proposed by connes and lott.
