Complex Systems Summer School 2013 |
I am a Complex Systems PhD student at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona. I was born in Galicia, in the north west of Spain near a place the Romans used to call "Finis Terrae", the end of the earth. I studied there for many years until I began a wander: Heidelberg and Darmstadt (Germany), Granada (south Spain), Berlin (Germany again), and now Barcelona. In the meanwhile I studied Physics and Computational Neuroscience.
I am interested in very different topics from physics, biology, sociology... and much more; but currently I focus my research a bit on synthetic computation, on different aspects of languages (evolution, dynamics...), and also something about optimization algorithms. I am always eager to tell more about what I do!
I extend a little bit my topics bellow:
- Language dynamics: For my degree thesis I studied the competition between languages--precisely between my two mother tongues--in Galicia when you introduce bilingualism in a previously existing model. We published [1] or [2] papers on the topic. I come back to this topic from time to time and remain interested in everything related to languages:
- How do they emerge? How do they interact? How do uses, grammar, vocabulary change over time?
- Any connection to ecology?
- What is language? What is its connection to intelligence?
