Synopsis

Pál Révész was a world-renowned Hungarian probabilist and an extremely prolific mathematician, having written around 200 research papers and four books. A graduate of Eötvös Lóránd University, Révész spent decades as the Head of the Probability Department of the Rényi Institute before heading the Department of Statistics and Probability of Vienna University of Technology. He was also a visiting professor at numerous universities across Europe and Canada. He was elected to be a member of the Hungarian Academy in 1982, and he served as the president of the Bernoulli Society of Mathematical Statistics and Probability from 1983 to 1985, as well as becoming a member of the Academy Europaea in 1991. He was beyond generous in his collaborations, always happy to talk about the problems he was working on. He listened with the same respect and curiosity whether talking to a famous professor or an eager student. He loved being able to help a new generation of mathematicians. Besides mathematics, he loved classical music, long walks, and the company of friends-but he admitted that he was still doing mathematics in his head during these concerts and long walks. In this volume, we have collected papers from his coworkers, friends, and colleagues to commemorate his life and everlasting impact on probability theory.
