Roberto Reyes Carranza
From Santa Fe Institute Events Wiki
| Complex Systems Summer School 2013 |
The instructor of mathematics Roberto Reyes learned to study this subject, mathematics, at the National University of Trujillo- Perú, where he was recruited by several professors, continuing his PhD studies and research at the University of Puerto Rico, mathematical- research campus at San Juan and Mayagüez, Space and Sea Grant, and Land Grant University, and Energy Department Partner, where he feels very comfortable to continue the pleasure of thinking on a wide range of mathematical theories, additionally, on his own initiative, design of algorithms and computational implementation of several complex processes in mathematics and its modeling. In addition, taking into account the interaction with parallel computing.
Current Research
Right now he is doing the following research: "Fundamental Properties of Almost Perfect Nonlinear Functions, a Way to Measure its Nonlinearity and to construct its Highly Nonlinear Functions", paper in preparation, at an advanced stage, to be submitted 2014, and "APN Functions in Differential Cryptanalysis", attacking it from its roots, its definition, and even and again, strongly, with Prof. Dr. Heeralal Janwa http://www.cims.nyu.edu/~hjanwa/ http://math.nyu.edu/people/visitors.html and Prof. Dr. Moisés Delgado http://esta.uprrp.edu/facultad/mecu-delgadoM.php http://bsidespr.org/?page_id=147. His research interests in the Steinberg- Reissner Model (New Theory of Cosserat for micro-polar plates with moderate thickness) includes Elliptic PDE Systems with mixed boundary conditions corresponding to the bending problem, with Prof. Dr. Lev Steinberg http://math.uprm.edu/people/peoplefind.php?person=Steinberg,%20Lev
He have been invited because of his unusually strong application, to participate in the Complex Systems Summer School at Santa Fe Institute, New Mexico, USA. Selected participants (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty) come from all over the world and represent a wide range of disciplines. Roberto was also awarded the Scholar of The Select Mathematics Group at GUE, An Own Initiative of GUE Faculty, GUE Highly Competitive Public School at Trujillo, Perú (visit Roberto's City! the largest earthen architecture city in pre-Columbian America http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/366). During his undergraduate studies, he attended twelve advanced Pure Math courses and two of Physics as a "Visiting Student". Because of his powerful mathematical analysis, his meeting with Prof. Dr. Guihua Gong http://archive.sciencewatch.com/dr/erf/2011/11augerf/11augerfElli/ is not a coincidence. Roberto was nominated to be part of the Golden Key International Honour Society. And selected to participate in the project Research Integrity in Graduate International Collaborations and Contexts, a study sponsored by the NSF (grant # 1135345) and directed by the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS), as a PhD student at the UPR, Río Piedras, one of the 5 US universities nationwide selected.
Specialized Computational Libraries Produced
He owns an extensive programming experience with symbolic software (Computer Algebra Systems), and he has developed significant progresses, these contain an original analytical work plus the implementation of one rich set of functions, which also can be applied into several industrial purposes. He has managed to understand a significant amount of analytical foundations and techniques to make big projects.
