Peter W. Hawkes

Peter W. Hawkes is a renowned mathematician and researcher known for his work in the field of point processes, which are mathematical models used to analyze the timing of events that happen randomly over time, such as earthquakes, neural activity, or social media activity. He developed theories and tools that help understand how such events influence each other, revealing patterns and dependencies. His contributions have advanced our ability to analyze complex systems where events are interconnected, making his work valuable across disciplines like physics, finance, neuroscience, and engineering.
