Maria Eulália Vares

Maria Eulália Vares is a Brazilian mathematical statistician and probability theorist who is known for her expertise in stochastic processes and large deviations theory. She is a professor of statistics in the Institute of Mathematics of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro,^[1] from 2006 to 2009 was the editor-in-chief of the journal Stochastic Processes and their Applications, publisher by Elsevier for the Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability^[2], and from 2015 to 2017 was the editor-in-chief of the Annals of Probability,^[3] published by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.

Vares graduated in 1975 from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul with a bachelor's degree in mathematics. After earning a master's degree in statistics in 1977 from the Instituto Nacional de Matemática Pura e Aplicada, she went to the University of California, Berkeley for doctoral study in statistics. She completed her Ph.D. in 1980;^[1] her dissertation, supervised by P. Warwick Millar, was On Two Parameter Lévy Processes.^[4]

With Enzo Olivieri, Vares is the author of the book Large Deviations and Metastability (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications 100, Cambridge University Press, 2005).^[5]

She is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics,^[6] and an elected member of the International Statistical Institute.^[7]
