Abstract

Probability and statistics have brought fruitful achievements intersecting with other branches of mathematics and sciences, as can be seen from the work of several recent Fields Medalists. In this lecture I shall briefly describe some research directions in this aspect, and introduce some of our recent results in this connection.
