“ComplexCité” : Modeling of Complex Phenomena
Who are we? ComplexCité is an innovative and federative initiative that aims at bringing together the expertise at UPCité and associated partners, in the modeling of complex phenomena, from theoretical aspects to experimental explorations and multidisciplinary applications. ComplexCité has been designed as a large-scale transverse structure that intends to act as a cradle to promote and to support research and training related to the modeling of complex phenomena at UPCité, and in particular to initiate, stimulate and develop collaborations in those areas where interdisciplinary expertise, or a combination of theoretical (mathematical or computational) and experimental skills, are required.
The consortium of ComplexCité is a broad, diverse and multidisciplinary entity that combines about 150 tenured C/E-C from multiple groups across the University, from Mathematics and Fundamental Computer Science, to Physics and BioPhysics, Planet Earth and Medicine. As a whole, the consortium incorporates the large panel of complementary expertise that is needed to tackle complex phenomena, from conceptual aspects and modeling (including Analysis of PDEs, Probability and Stochastic Processes, (Bio-)Statistics and Data Sciences, Optimization and (Machine) Learning, Combinatorics and Graphs, and Statistical Physics) to empirical and observational proficiency (including Nonlinear Physics, (Geological) Fluid Mechanics, Infectious Diseases). The consortium involves members of the following research labs:
- the four research labs in Mathematics at UPCité: MAP5, LJLL, LPSM and IMJ-PRG;
- the lab devoted to Fundamental Computer Science: IRIF;
- two Physics labs: MSC, PMMH;
Within all the above “Faculté des Sciences”-affiliated labs, several groups are taking part in ComplexCité.
- two labs within the “Faculté Santé”: ECSTRRA, IAME;
- one group at Institut de Physique du Globe : Geological Fluid Dynamics;
- two labs at Institut Pasteur: MMMI, DCPP.
