At its core, it is a functional analysis course for physicists and covers the basics of measure theory, function spaces and linear operators.

The course is an introduction to probability theory. We aim to introduce the modern formalism (based on the notion of measure), to connect it with the 'intuitive' aspect of probabilities, but also to become familiar with the probabilistic way of thinking.

This is a theoretical course about probability in high dimensions. We will look at some mathematical phenomena appearing as the number of random variables grows large - e.g. concentration of measure or universality.

Popularisation
With co-authors we wrote a book on high-school mathematics “The evening textbook of mathematics”. It tries to make sometimes seemingly difficult and dry mathematics more lively and warm — more like it actually is. The book is freely available here (in Estonian). I occasionly write about mathematics in Estonian; and have also ad the opportunity to share my passion in mathematics at several general audience talks, including a TEDx talk on “Structures of randomness” here (in Estonian).
