Alexander Shpunt

Hi All!

My name is Alex. I am PhD candidate in Physics at MIT.

I have BSc in Physics/CS and MSc in EE (Combinatorics and Topology of Information Processing).

My current interests

• Structure and dynamics/scaling/walks in Complex Networks • Rigorous results in Random Graphs/Probabilistic Method with applications • Complex systems; Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos; Biophysics • Error correction in biological/nanometer scale processes • Percolation theory applied to questions of structural stability • Scaling laws and statistical mechanics • Application of the insights of Theoretical Physics to help solve important problems (e.g. energy sources, global warming, pollution dynamics, bio-sphere sustainability) • Physical Aspects of Information • Fundamental questions in Physics, fundamental limitations imposed by the physical law and solutions when the technological advance hits these limits.

Looking forward to an exciting CSSS 2007!

Alex
