Fluctuations are a fundamental manifestation of the microscopic stochastic/quantum dynamics of physical systems. They are present at very different scales and give rise to a plethora of effects, relevant across various research fields. Understanding the origin of fluctuation-induced phenomena is rapidly becoming important not only for fundamental investigations but also for the characterization of experimental setups and for the opportunities and challenges that they offer to modern technologies. The seminar covers a broad range of subjects having fluctuations as a common denominator. It focuses on current challenges encompassing diverse physical systems both in and out of equilibrium, spanning different scales and configurations.

Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik GmbH

In this Dagstuhl Seminar, we are gathering several researchers from different communities (approximation algorithms, algorithmic game theory, operations research, online algorithms, learning theory) that have been interested in this or related questions from different angles. The goal is developing new techniques, identifying new models and directions, and solving some of the many open problems related to the above question.
