The Central Limit Theory states that a large sum of small contributions will be*close to the normal distribution irrespective of the nature of the individual contributions. I study an analogue of this universality for random spatial systems. The large scale space-time behaviour of random systems exhibiting critical growth often approximates a stochastic process called Super-Brownian motion. The approximating systems include epidemic models, competing species models in mathematical ecology, percolation in statistical physics, or allele frequencies in population genetics. My research focuses on using this universality to study many of these interacting spatial systems and on extending this universal correspondence.

中心极限理论指出，无论单个贡献的性质如何，大量的小贡献都接近正态分布。我研究了这种通用性的随机空间系统的类似物。随机系统的大规模时空行为表现出临界生长通常近似于称为超棕色运动的随机过程。近似系统包括流行模型，数学生态学中的竞争物种模型，统计物理学的渗透或人群遗传学中​​的等位基因频率。我的研究重点是利用这种普遍性研究许多相互作用的空间系统，并扩展这种通用的对应关系。
