Nominator's project description

Professor Lyons is a leading mathematician who specializes in stochastic analysis and its application. He has gained worldwide recognition for his work on the theory of rough paths, a highly original and intriguing view on solutions of stochastic differential equations and statistics. In Germany, he will focus on Brownian motion in high-oscillatory fields, rough paths as modelling device in finance and the connections to Hairer's regularity structures.
