Tomasz Łapiński

Hi! I am on the fourth year of my PhD working under supervision of Prof. Vassili Kolokoltsov, you can find me in C1.02. My email address is T.M.Lapinski@warwick.ac.uk.

Research Interests

I am working on the new limit theorem leading to and unifying Zipf-Mandlebrot Law, Boltzmann and Bose-Einstein Statistics and related fluctuation theorem. However, particular research I do has a direct links with various fields. Briefly, my interests are:

  • Probability Theory
  • Laplace Approximatation
  • Statistical Physics
  • Fundaments of Complexity Science
  • Econophysics, Complex systems, Theoretical Biology

Education

2009-: PhD in Probability Theory under supervision of Prof. Vassili Kolokoltsov

2007-2008: MSc in Financial Mathematics (Högskolan Halmstad, Sweden) under supervision of Prof. Ljudmila A. Bordag with dissertation 'Comparative analysis of the SVJJ and the Hyperbolic models on the Swedish market'.

2003-2007: MSc in Technical Physics and Applied Informatics (Gdańsk University of Technology, Poland) under supervision of Prof. Sergiej Leble with dissertation 'Solving an inverse problem for diffusion equation and estimation of regularisation and SVJJ model parameters using Mathematica package'.
