SUMMARY:Excursions into the Mathematical Universe: Rumors\, Epidemics and Economic Crises: Infection Processes in Networks
DESCRIPTION:A series of popular science lectures titled “Excursions into the Mathematical Universe.” The lectures are primarily intended for students of secondary schools in the Primorska region\, but they are also open to the general public. Researchers and university lecturers will present ancient and modern mathematical concepts and their applicability in various fields of science\, natural sciences\, and social sciences in an accessible way. \n\nRumors\, Epidemics and Economic Crises: Infection Processes in Networks \nWhat are the commonalities between the economic crisis of 2008\, the COVID-19 pandemic\, and social media campaigns in recent political elections? Why were the dynamics of bankruptcies\, epidemic outbreaks\, and the spread of misinformation so unexpected? What are the similarities and differences between these processes\, and how can they be described using mathematical models? What specific problems arise in controlling the spread of such outbreaks\, and what mathematical methods can be used to address them? In this lecture\, we will take a journey through the methodology of computational network analysis to answer these questions and highlight the main challenges. \nAbout the lecturer: Miklós Krész earned his PhD in mathematics and computer science in 2005 at the University of Szeged\, Hungary. His main research areas include industrially motivated optimization methods\, data-driven industrial solutions\, and the integration of operations research and data methodologies. He focuses on both fundamental and applied research in these areas. He is currently a professor of computer science at UP FAMNIT and UP IAM\, and Head of the Research Department – Information Processing at InnoRenew CoE. \n(The lecture will be held in English.) \n\n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nEvent materials are available at this link.\nA recording of the event is available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:
