The Applied Probability Trust is a UK-based non-profit foundation for study and research in the mathematical sciences, founded in 1964 and based in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Sheffield, which it has been affiliated with since 1964.[1][2]
Publications
The Applied Probability Trust (APT) published two world leading research journals, the Journal of Applied Probability and Advances in Applied Probability, until 2016.[3] Joe Gani, founding editor for the two journals, intended to create outlets for researchers in applied probability, as they increasingly had difficulty in getting published in the few journals in probability and statistics that existed at that time.[4][5] The Journal of Applied Probability appeared first, in 1964,[5] and with a prominent editorial board from the beginning, it secured contributions from renowned probabilists.[6] The Advances in Applied Probability started in 1969.[5] In 2016, Cambridge University Press took over the publication of the two journals.
In addition to these two journals, two further magazine style publications have been published, The Mathematical Scientist and Mathematical Spectrum.
- Journal of Applied Probability (1964 – present)[7]
- Advances in Applied Probability (1972 – present)[8]
- The Mathematical Scientist (1976 – 2018)[9]
- Mathematical Spectrum (1968 – 2016)[10]
To mark special occasions, the Applied Probability Trust commissions special issues of the journal. These include:
- Perspectives in Probability and Statistics (1975)
- Essays in Statistical Science (1982)
- Essays in Time Series and Allied Processes (1986)
- A Celebration of Applied Probability (1988)
- Studies in Applied Probability (1994)
- Probability, Statistics and Seismology (2001)
- Stochastic Methods and Their Applications (2004)
- New Frontiers in Applied Probability (2011)
- Celebrating 50 Years of the Applied Probability Trust (2014)
- Probability, Analysis and Number Theory (2016)
- Branching and Applied Probability (2018)
