The STOCHASTICA SNIP seminar will be held online every two weeks starting on January 14. Talks of 30-45 minutes will be followed by 15-30 minutes of open discussion. Initially, seminars will be focused on introducing new problems and applications, to stimulate further discussions and ideas within individual working groups.  

The first seminar was given by Prof Charles-Edouard Bréhier, Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour.

Numerical approximation of invariant distributions for SPDEs
I will review various results on the numerical approximation of invariant distributions for SPDEs, using standard schemes or more advanced techniques, in particular for the approximation of Gibbs measures associated with parabolic semilinear SPDEs.

We also opened our first Conference Grant Call to support Young Researchers and Innovators, and announced a graphics competition for outreach.
