LINKS

This page shall contain links to various probabilistic pages and those of general interest. Feel free to explore them.


Sites of general interest:


Probabilistic sites:

  • The Chance project is an educational site with a lot of further links;
  • The Probability Net by Noël Vaillant presents a selection of tutorials in probability and related topics;
  • The Probability Web is a collection of online resources in probability;
  • The Borel-Cantelli lemma and its applications to number theory on Encyclopedia of Mathematics;

Simulation / animation applets:

  • The Monty Hall Puzzle simulation page (a version of the Car/Goats problem)
  • Buffon's Needle page (with simulation)
  • Monopoly as a Markov chain
  • Animation of the Riemann integral on Wiki
  • Random Birthday Applet
  • Simulations page by Jeff Achter
  • Various applets from Interactivate (see the probability section, in particular, the competition models here, here or there).
  • Simulation applets for the Ising model (here or there)
  • Parrondo's paradox and its analysis at nature.com (Scientific Reports).

    Many of these and similar exciting models can be studied using some of the techniques discussed in this course. Get in touch, if interested!
