  • probability theory
  • Stochastic processes
  • statistics


Qualification Goals

The students shall

  • learn about hot mathematical research topics and results,
  • learn working with research literature,
  • gain insight into the development of new mathematical results,
  • deepen their mathematical knowledge in a specific field,
  • acquire the competence to acquire and understanding of scientific articles from mathematical journals,
  • practice mathematical methods (development of mathematical intuition and its formal justification, training of the ability to abstract, proof methods),
  • improve their oral communication skills in the recitation classes by practicing free speech in front of an audience and during discussion.

Prerequisites

Translation is missing. Here is the German original:

Keine. Empfohlen werden die Kompetenzen, die in den Basismodulen und in Aufbaumodulen (themenabhängig) vermittelt werden.
