• T. Dooley, UNSW, Levy-Khintchine formula on manifolds
• D. Elworthy, Warwick, Stochastic Analysis and Topology of Manifolds
• J. Grotowski, UQ, Two-dimensional harmonic map heat flow versus four-dimensional Yang-Mills heat flow
• R. Moser, Bath, Analytic aspects of the Landau-Lifshitz equation
• A. Thalmaier, Luxembourg, Brownian measures on Jordan-Virasoro curves associated to the Weil-Petersson metric
• T. Tran, UNSW, Numerical methods for Landau-Lifschitz-Gilbert equations
