DESCRIPTION:Mikhail Gromov (Université Paris-Saclay)\nThe success of the 
 probability theory in mathematics and theoretical physics is due not so mu
 ch to its measure theoretic foundation but because it exploits and enhance
 s symmetries of the structures it applies to. We shall describe in this le
 cture two alternative approaches to the concept of probability\, where\n\n
 	the first one is motivated by the ongoing revision of the set theoretic l
 anguage in mathematics\, as it is being systematically superseded by the c
 ategory theoretic one\;\n	the second approach is motivated by the needs of
  biologiy and linguistics\, where the structures do not possess symmetries
  of the kind physical structures enjoy.\n
