An introduction to log-correlated fields and multiplicative chaos
Log-correlated fields are stochastic processes arising e.g. in various models of statistical mechanics, probabilistic combinatorics, and probabilistic number theory. They are characterized by having a logarithmic singularity in their covariance. Multiplicative chaos measures are random fractal measures built from these log-correlated fields. I will briefly discuss the precise definition of these objects, how multiplicative chaos measures can be used to study extreme values of log-correlated fields, and time permitting, how this type of results can be applied e.g. in random matrix theory.
