Biography

Philippe Sosoe is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Cornell University. He obtained his Ph.D. from Princeton University in 2014, where he developed a strong foundation in probabilistic models influenced by statistical mechanics. His research primarily focuses on probability and statistics, specifically examining percolation variants, random matrices, and spin systems. Sosoe uses analytic techniques and explores partial differential equations to analyze these models. He has co-authored significant publications in prestigious journals, including work on sublinear variance first-passage percolation and the regularity conditions for the central limit theorem in linear eigenvalue statistics of Wigner matrices. His ongoing contributions to the field are underscored by a commitment to teaching advanced topics in probability through courses like Stochastic Processes and Probability Theory II.
