Research summary

David Sivakoff works in probability theory, studying random processes on networks and lattices such as bootstrap percolation, growth models, cellular automata, and particle systems that spread, compete, or annihilate over space. This research helps explain how patterns like infection spread, mutation, or activation propagate through structured environments, using rigorous mathematical models rather than experimental data. The work is highly theoretical, aimed at proving precise mathematical statements about long-term behavior of these random systems.
