معرفی
Conrado da Costa is an Assistant Professor (Research) in Probability at Durham University's Department of Mathematical Sciences. His academic profile centers on advanced research in probability theory, with particular expertise in Non-Homogeneous Random Walks and Scaling Limits of Interacting Particle Systems.
His research portfolio spans several interconnected domains:
- Diffusion on Networks and Infinite graphs
- Fluid limits and hydrodynamic limits
- Random walks in random environments
- Law of Large Numbers and long-term behaviors
- Local convergence of random graphs
Professor da Costa employs a sophisticated mathematical toolkit including scaling limits, generators, semigroups, martingale problems, concentration inequalities, and coupling methods. His research methodology bridges theoretical probability with applications in statistical mechanics and mathematical physics, revealing how microscopic stochastic processes give rise to macroscopic deterministic behavior.
His publication record shows consistent development from foundational work on reaction-diffusion models (2019) to more recent investigations of random walks in cooling random environments and stochastic billiards (2022-2023). His work demonstrates increasing sophistication in handling complex correlation structures and boundary effects in stochastic systems.
Professor da Costa has secured research funding for projects including 'Anomalous diffusion via self-interaction and reflection' and actively supervises undergraduate and graduate students through annual project offerings since 2019. His research collaborations extend to institutions including Leiden University, IMPA, and the University of Manchester, reflecting his growing international recognition in the probability community.
