Alexander Zass

Alexander Zass is a Substitute Professor for Probability Theory at the University of Potsdam and a post-doctoral researcher in the Interacting Random Systems group at WIAS, Berlin. His research focuses on advanced topics in probability theory, statistical mechanics, and stochastic processes, with particular emphasis on Gibbs point processes, diffusion dynamics, and mathematical physics. He explores systems such as infinite-dimensional diffusions, depletion interactions in colloids, and phase transitions in interacting particle systems.

His work integrates rigorous mathematical analysis with applications in physics and complex systems, as seen in studies of the free Bose gas, Widom-Rowlinson models, and the Vicsek model for collective motion. Zass also contributes to foundational aspects of Gibbs measures and their existence under unbounded interactions.

His publications reflect expertise in stochastic geometry, cluster expansions, and path-space processes, often addressing existence and uniqueness theorems in probabilistic frameworks. While no awards are explicitly mentioned, his research activity spans over a decade with contributions to both theoretical and applied probability.
