Complex Networks, Chaos & Non-linearities

The theoretical physics team studies the structure and random walks on complex classical and quantum networks, classical, semi-classical and quantum dynamical systems, and develops mathematical and numerical tools for these studies (Google matrices, Floquet and Koopman operators, fractal geometry, big data methods,...).

Our main study topics are:

  • Analysis of complex networks resulting from big data (and applications in economic and social sciences, biology, ecology, etc.)
  • Classical dynamical systems (modeling using simple maps), chaos and fractals
  • Quantum systems driven by classical systems & quantum chaos
  • Spin networks, non-linear molecular networks & quantum walks
