Northwestern University received a $157,770 Project Grant award dated February 15, 2026, from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant supports fundamental research focused on identifying predictable behavior in large random structures through application of probability theory, combinatorics, analysis, and theoretical computer science. The project investigates three primary classes of mathematical models: random matrices, random polynomials, and Gibbs point processes, with applications to modeling noisy datasets, gases, and spatial data. Research activities include collaboration with graduate students on core problems and mentoring of undergraduate research initiatives. The research emphasizes understanding universality phenomena in random polynomials and random matrices—mathematical findings demonstrating that certain behaviors are independent of specific model particulars and dependent only on general model properties. This work has both theoretical and practical significance. Additionally, the project addresses the uniqueness regime of Gibbs point processes with both theoretical and algorithmic results. No subawards are planned for this award, which is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2026, and will be conducted at Northwestern University's Evanston, Illinois campus.
