As he was brushing his teeth on the morning of July 17, 2014, Thomas Royen, a little-known retired German statistician, suddenly lit upon the proof of a famous conjecture at the intersection of ...

Stochastic geometry combines probabilistic methods with classical geometry to investigate random spatial structures. At its core lies the study of random polytopes—convex hulls formed by points drawn ...

Information Geometry applies the tools of differential geometry to the analysis of probability distributions and statistical inference. It views parametric families of distributions as smooth ...

The Department of Applied Mathematics offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in statistics and data science through the College of Arts and Sciences. The BA degree is designed with an emphasis on inter- and ...
