The conference "Random Structures and Limit Objects", to be held on September 15-16, 2012 at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences in New York University, will use the occasion of the 60th birthday of David Aldous to bring together a diverse group of eminent experts and new researchers, with the aim of discussing and making progress on some of the most pressing research questions in probability theory and related areas. Special emphasis will be laid on fields influenced by David Aldous's works, such as exchangeability and graph limits, mixing time of Markov chains and their deep connections with critical phenomena in statistical physics and computer science, extreme value theory and Poisson approximation, random trees and critical random graphs, stochastic coagulation and fragmentation models, phylogenetics and biological models of evolution and the notion of local weak convergence and combinatorial optimization. The conference will feature eight talks over a span of two days, with additional short talks by junior researchers and graduate students. Specialized mathematical meetings like this are important since they give people an opportunity to young researchers to exchange ideas and try out new theories and interact with some of the pre-eminent thinkers in the field. This conference will be an open meeting and will be advertised in the Bulletin of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, the Notices of the American Mathematical Society, on the Web, and through a number of electronic mailing lists. A conference website will also be maintained. The slides of the talks will be made available at the conference website. If possible, we will also collect some of the core questions and ideas that arise in the conference and publish this in survey form in an open access probability journal such as Probability Surveys.

将于2012年9月15日至16日在纽约大学的数学科学学院举行的“随机结构和限制对象”会议将利用大卫·奥尔德斯（David Aldous）诞辰60周年，将一群著名的专家和新研究人员汇集在一起​​，以讨论和在研究中最紧迫的研究问题的某些问题和相关领域的最紧迫研究问题，并取得进步。特别强调将放在受戴维·奥尔杜斯（David Aldous）作品影响的领域上，例如交换性和图形限制，马尔可夫链的混合时间及其深层连接与统计物理学和计算机科学中的批判现象，极端价值理论以及Poisson近似，随机树木，随机树木和关键随机图，临界图，弱化和脆弱的模型和脆弱的模型，弱化的模型，网络范围，相互策略，蒸蒸日的效果，浮游生活动，以及效果的效果，效果和脆弱的模型，效果和脆弱的模型，效果和脆弱的模型，效果和脆弱的模型和脆弱的模型，效果和脆弱的模型和脆弱的模型和脆弱的模型和脆弱性。 优化。这次会议将在两天内进行八次演讲，并在初级研究人员和研究生中进行额外的简短演讲。像这样的专业数学会议很重要，因为它们为人们提供了一个机会，使年轻的研究人员有机会交流思想，尝试新理论并与该领域的一些杰出思想家进行互动。这次会议将是一次公开会议，并将在数学统计研究所的公告，美国数学学会的通知，网络上以及通过许多电子邮件列表中进行宣传。会议网站也将维护。会谈的幻灯片将在会议网站上提供。如果可能的话，我们还将收集会议中出现的一些核心问题和想法，并在“调查”表格中以开放访问概率杂志（例如概率调查）发布。
