As a (weak) coincidence (with my review of Randomness through Computation), the French Mathematical Society chose the theme of its yearly meeting (on June 17-18 at CIRM) as “Qu’est ce qu’un nombre au hasard ?” with talks by
- Laurent Bienvenu (LIAFA, Université Paris Diderot) : «Qu’est-ce qu’un nombre aléatoire ? Hasard et calculabilité»
- Benoît Rittaud (Laboratoire LAGA, Université Paris XIII) : «De la “Grande Année” aux suites de Kronecker»
- David Xiao (LIAFA, Université Paris Diderot) : «Le pseudo-aléa : objets et génération»
The talk by David Xiao is accompanied by a fairly interesting survey that goes much farther than what is found in Randomness through Computation. The same applies to the talk by Laurent Bienvenu, with a survey that is closer in spirit to the themes of Randomness through Computation (Kolmogorov and Chaitin complexities, Martin-Löf randomness).
Another (weak) coincidence is that I received yesterday in the mail Richard von Mises’ Probability, Statistics and Truth, which I hope to read carefully in the coming weeks, in connection with the above, but also Bayesian statistics (“a misundertsanding of one of the classical formulas of probability calculus”).
In about a month I will give a talk in Berlin on
