Eduardo Altmann
Education
B.S. and M.S. in Physics from the University of Sao Paulo (Brazil),
2002 and 2004 respectively;
Ph.D. in Physics (summa cum laude) from the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, in Dresden (Germany) and the University Wuppertal (Germany). Dissertation Title:
"Intermittent Chaos in Hamiltonian Systems", advisor: Prof. Holger Kantz.
NICO Research
Eduardo is working on a cross-disciplinary project with Adilson Motter (Physics) and Janet Pierrehumbert (Linguistics). The idea is to apply tools from statistical physics to data available in the internet in order to understand the propagation of information (e.g., new collocations) in social networks.
Past Research
In the past, Eduardo's research included different aspects of Statistical Physics, Dynamical Systems, and Time Series Analysis.
During the last years his research focused on applications of Chaotic Billiards and on the statistical analysis of Extreme Events.
