Random geometry has emerged as a pivotal area in probability theory, encompassing the study of diverse
geometric models ranging from fixed
lattices, such as percolation and the Ising model, to the theory of
random graphs, trees, maps, and their continuous limits.
This interdisciplinary field lies at the confluence
of probability theory, combinatorics, and theoretical
physics, stimulating fruitful interactions
among researchers from these domains.
In particular, the study of
planar maps, which are graphs drawn on a sphere,
has long been of interest
in both combinatorics and theoretical physics,
specifically in the context of two-dimensional quantum gravity.
Recently, random geometry methods
have also been utilized to explore
properties of hyperbolic geometry.
This workshop aims to bring
together experts in random geometry, fostering
the exchange of insights and open problems, and
encouraging interdisciplinary interactions.
