Abstract submission

The deadline for the submission of abstracts is 30 April, 2005. Please indicate in your submisson whether you prefer to give a talk or whether you want to participate in the poster sessions. The maximum length of abstracts is one page. The Scientific Committee will send information about the acceptance of the contributions by 15 May, 2005. Speakers will be asked to submit one paper (or electronic) copy of the slides for their talks (6 slides per page, at most 4 pages). These will then be duplicated and distributed to the participants at the start of the conference. Similarly, participants with poster presentation are encouraged to submit a paper or electronic copy of their poster, in a format which is suitable for copying and distribution.

 

Abstracts should be written using the template latex-file Submit your abstract (the LaTeX file) by email to hult@math.ku.dk. Please pay particular attention to the emphasized topics.

As in the previous meetings, the 2005 meeting will schedule review papers and original research on all aspects of risk and extreme value theory and their applications. The emphasis will be on probabilistic modeling, statistical analyses, and applications in
·  Demography
·  Earthsciences
·  Hydrology and Atmospheric Sciences
·  Finance, Economics and Insurance
·  Biosciences
·  Physics
·  Telecommunications and Stochastic Networks
·  Material Sciences

It is the aim of the conference to bring together a wide range of researchers, practitioners, and graduate students whose work is related to the analysis of extreme values in a wide sense. Topics of interest include:
·  Classical extreme value theory
·  Novel applications of extreme value theory
·  Statistics of extremal events
·  Heavy-tailed phenomena
·  Large deviations
·  Methods of risk analysis
·  Stochastic processes for extremes
·  Rare event simulation
·  Multivariate extremes
·  Dependence and extremes
·  Spatio-temporal models

Software packages on extreme value theory and related fields will be presented
