Second Announcement of the Winter School on
PROBABILISTIC METHODS IN HIGH DIMENSION PHENOMENA
Toulouse, January 10-14, 2005
The school will provide young as well as expert scientists with
the recent probabilistic tools developed for the investigation
of high-dimensional systems. It is part of the European Network
"Phenomena in High Dimension". It will be composed of the
following five courses:
I.Benjamini (Rehovot) ``Random walks and Percolation on graphs''
C.Borell (Goteborg) ``Minkowski sums in Gaussian analysis''
K.Johansson (Stockholm) ``Determinantal Processes in Random Matrix Theory''
G.Lugosi (Barcelona) ``Concentration of Functions of Independent Random
Variables''
R.Schneider (Freiburg) ``Convexity in Stochastic Geometry''
It is now time for participants:
* to registrate:
we had some technical problems with the online registration engine.
So we ask you to registrate (to REGISTRATE AGAIN if you already did
it through the online form) by sending an email to our secretary
Mrs Michel
michel(a)lsp.ups-tlse.fr,
specifying your NAME, your AFFILIATION, ADDRESS and DATES of
attendance.
* and to prepare their travel and accomodation plans:
The expenses of the members of the PHD network are supported by
their nodes (but it is likely that universities have to pay in
advance and the RTN will reimburse when it is operating).
We hope that we will have some money left to partially cover
the expenses of participants not belonging to the network.
Priority will be given to PHD Students and Post-Docs.
If you need such support, please mention it in the registration
email to Mrs Michel.
More information is available on the conference Webpage
http://www.lsp.ups-tlse.fr/Proba_Winter_School/
It has been updated and contains new pieces of information about
* abstracts of the courses
* accomodation: The list of hotels has been completed. Economical options
have been added. In particular we have made a temporary
reservation for a very limited number of rooms on the campus
for 22 Euros per night. These rooms can be booked by
sending an email to Mrs Michel (michel(a)lesp.ups-tlse.fr).
Sincerely,
F. Barthe
M. Ledoux

This is an announcement for the paper "Characterization of
quasi-Banach spaces which coarsely embed into a Hilbert space" by
N. L. Randrianarivony.
Abstract: A map f between two metric spaces (X,d_1) and (Y,d_2) is called
a coarse embedding of X into Y if there exist two nondecreasing functions
phi_1, phi_2:[0,\infty) --> [0,\infty) such that:
phi_1(d_1(x,y)) \leq d_2(f(x),f(y)) \leq phi_2(d_1(x,y)) for all x, y in
X, and phi_1(t) tends to \infty as t tends to \infty. We characterize
those quasi-Banach spaces that have a coarse embedding into a
Hilbert space.

This is an announcement for the paper "Fragmentability and representations
of flows" by Michael Megrelishvili.
Abstract: Our aim is to study weak star continuous representations of
semigroup actions into the duals of ``good'' (e.g., reflexive and Asplund)
Banach spaces. This approach leads to flow analogs of Eberlein and
Radon-Nikodym compacta and a new class of functions (Asplund functions)
which intimately is connected with Asplund representations and includes
the class of weakly almost periodic functions.
We show that a flow is weakly almost periodic iff it admits sufficiently
many
reflexive representations.
One of the main technical tools in this paper is the concept of
fragmentability (which actually comes from Namioka and Phelps) and
widespreadly used in topological aspects of Banach space theory.
We explore fragmentability as ``a generalized equicontinuity'' of
flows. This
unified approach allows us to obtain several dynamical applications. We
generalize and strengthen some results of Akin-Auslander-Berg,
Shtern, Veech-Troallic-Auslander and Hansel-Troallic. We establish that
frequently, for linear G-actions, weak and strong topologies coincide on,
not necessarily closed, G-minimal subsets. For instance such actions are
``orbitwise Kadec``.

This is an announcement for the paper "A sharp isoperimetric bound for
convex bodies" by Ravi Montenegro.
Abstract: We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized
Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave
probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given
in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp for all set sizes,
dimensions, and norms. In the case of uniform density a stronger theorem
is shown which is also sharp.

This is an announcement for the paper "A class of Banach spaces with
few non strictly singular operators" by S. A. Argyros, J. Lopez-Abad
and S. Todorcevic.
Abstract: We construct a family $(\mathcal{X}_\al)_{\al\le \omega_1}$
of reflexive Banach spaces with long transfinite bases but with no
unconditional basic sequences. In our spaces $\mathcal{X}_\al$ every
bounded operator $T$ is split into its diagonal part $D_T$ and its
strictly singular part $S_T$.
