Stochastic and Integral Geometry I (Winter Semester 2006/07)
- Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Weil (verstorben)
- Classes: Lecture (1044), Problem class (1045)
- Weekly hours: 4+2
Stochastic geometry deals with the development and analysis of stochastic models for complicated geometrical patterns. It combines concepts from probability theory (point processes, random sets) with elements from convex and integral geometry (curvature measures, intrinsic volumes, principal kinematic formula, Crofton formula).
This two-semester course will introduce in some of the basic ideas and results of this exciting and interesting field. In the first part, the basic model in stochastic geometry, the Boolean model, will be introduced. Then, the underlying geometric concepts will be developed, in particular, curvature measures of convex sets and integral geometric formulas for curvature measures will be studied.
A basic knowledge in probability and measure theory is required.
