☀️ در اینجا سعی کرده‌ایم بر اساس هر شهری در ایران، اسامی اساتیدی که در حوزه سیستم‌های پیچیده فعال هستند را جمع آوری کنیم. این فهرست به شما کمک می‌کند تا در شهرهای مختلف گروه‌هایی که مشغول به پژوهش روی سیستم‌های پیچیده هستند را پیدا کنید.

💥 پیشنهاد ما به همه این است که در مقطع ارشد و دکتری، انتخاب دانشگاه بر اساس اساتید و گروه‌های پژوهشی مورد نظر شما باشد. برای همین، قبل از انتخاب دانشگاهی، توجه کنید که در آن دانشگاه با چه کس یا کسانی قرار است کار کنید. حتما با دانشجویان فارغ‌التحصیل از آن مراکز صحبت کنید! ظاهر و باطن انسان‌ها و گروه‌های پژوهشی گاهی بسیار متفاوت است.

💡 آیا باید دکتری بخوانم؟!

با آرزوی موفقیت برای همه دانشجویان عزیز
امیدواریم که در این شرایط سخت، شور و اشتیاق علم در شما زنده مانده باشد.

📰 Symmetry, selection rules and reduction to a bare-bones model

In this post, I will discuss Raman and IR selection rules in a very simple model that illustrates the essence of this way of thinking. Although this model is cartoonish, it contains the relevant symmetries that cut right to the physics of the problem. Along the way, I hope that a simple picture behind the selection rules arises!

#Postdoc position in Nonlinear Dynamics/Statistical Physics at Jacobs University Bremen, Germany
The project is on transient processes and rare events in complex systems, related to evolutionary game theory and heteroclinic dynamics. The focus is on the prediction of transient phenomena such as spatio-temporal pattern formation. Patterns range from temporal sequences of excitations in neural networks to self-organized spatial segregation and the formation
of temporary alliances between species in ecological or social systems, including extinction events, whose risk for occurrence should be analytically estimated. Possible applications refer in particular to cognitive dynamics, with transient heteroclinic processes being coupled and going on in parallel.
Very good programming skills and expertise with analytical calculations are required. Experience in bifurcation analyses and large deviation theory is desirable. The position is for 2 years with a possible start by the end of this year or earlier. https://www.jacobs-university.de/directory/meyer-ortmanns .

🦠💉 Key questions that researchers are trying to answer about #coronavirus reinfections:

👉How common is reinfection?
👉Are second infections more or less severe than the first?
👉What implications do reinfections have for #vaccine prospects?

Kertész, J., & Wachs, J. (2020). Complexity science approach to economic crime.

János Kertész and Johannes Wachs discuss how complexity science and network science are particularly useful for identifying and describing the hidden traces of economic misbehaviour such as fraud and corruption.
