Fredos Papangelou

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fredos Papangelou ( Greek Φρέδος Παπαγγέλου , * 1939 ) is a Greek mathematician who deals with stochastic processes. He was a professor at the University of Manchester .

Fredos Papangelou 1970

Papangelou received his doctorate at the University of Athens (on association theory ), was from the beginning of the 1970s professor at the University of Göttingen in the Institute for Mathematical Statistics and since 1973 professor for mathematical statistics at the University of Manchester. He was also at Ohio State University .

An intensity function (or intensity measure) for point processes that he introduced in 1974 is named after him. A stochastic point process (Papangelou process) with applications in statistical mechanics (with a special form of the Papangelou intensity function) was later named after him. In 1972, independently of Paul-André Meyer (1971), he found that multivariate point processes can be converted into a set of independent Poisson processes by rescaling. The theorem was used in model evaluation and prediction of point processes.
