<p>Wolivia: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Im olivia pic.jpg]]Hi, I’m Olivia, a native of Mexico City who hasn’t lived there for a decade. Currently I live in Chicago, where I’m a PhD student in Applied Mathematics at Northwestern University. My research interests are, broadly speaking, in the area of complex networks, stochastic processes, non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and dynamical systems. I’m especially interested in applications to the systems usually studied by the social and behavioral sciences. Currently I think a lot about the dynamics of games on social networks and how they relate to the emergence of different social structures in settings of limited resources. I like thinking about many different kinds of things traveling, good conversations, reading, writing short stories, running and biking. I delight in the consumption of good music and food, wish I could say more about my creative abilities in the two… I’m very excited to meet all of you and learn much in the coming month.<br /> <br /> Concerning Dave Feldman's questions:<br /> <br /> 1. What topics do you have some expertise in and would you be willing to help others learn them?<br /> I have some, limited, &quot;expertise&quot; in complex networks, that is, familiar with general definitions, algorithms, different network models, some statistical mechanics/percolation results and relatively well informed about current research. Also have background in the mathematics of dynamical systems, differential equations and critical phenomena/statistical mechanics.<br /> <br /> 2. What do you want to learn at the CSSS? Anything interesting! For instance,<br /> i would like to learn more about how the tools of statistical mechanics, complex networks and agent based modeling can be applied to the social sciences. I would like to learn more about evolutionary games, the theory of self organized criticality, complex adaptive systems and get hands-on experience with agent based modeling.<br /> <br /> 3. Do you have any projects or research interests that would benefit<br /> from an interdisciplinary approach? Yes, the above mentioned dynamics of games on social networks and appearance of hierarchical structure in societies.<br /> <br /> 4. Do you have any ideas for what sort of project you would like to do<br /> work on with other CSSS students this summer? Open to many things, but again, the above mentioned.<br /> <br /> 5. Suppose you could travel one-hundred years in the future and ask<br /> researchers any three questions. What would those questions be?<br /> <br /> 1. What were the greatest mistakes/misguided assumptions of 21st century science?<br /> 2. What was the most over-hyped research areas of 21st century science?<br /> 3. Can science say anything useful and precise about the evolution of social systems?</div>
