CUNEF Universidad and ICMAT bring together international experts to analyze new advances in hamiltonian systems

International researchers gathered at CUNEF Universidad and the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (ICMAT) from July 13 to 17 as part of the conference “2nd International Workshop on New Advances in Contact and Symplectic Hamiltonian Dynamics”. The event featured presentations by experts from various universities in China, Singapore, and Spain, who gathered to discuss, exchange knowledge, and share new perspectives on Hamiltonian systems and their applications in various scientific fields. 

During the sessions, organized by ICMAT-CSIC research professors Manuel de León and David Martín de Diego, along with professors from the Mathematics Department at CUNEF University—Jordi Gaset Rifà, Saskia Demulder, Verónica Errasti Díez, and Manuel Lainz—various research projects were presented, and discussions were held on the different lines of research currently underway.

The second edition of the workshop focused on the formal aspects of symplectic and contact Hamiltonian systems, the stochastic processes associated with these systems, and their applications. Among the areas of interest highlighted by the researchers were control theory, neural networks, quantum systems, and cosmology—fields in which these mathematical tools are playing an increasingly significant role. 

This workshop continued an initiative launched with the goal of fostering scientific exchange among international research groups. The first edition of the workshop was held in November 2024 at Great Bay University in Dongguan, China, thereby consolidating international collaboration between academic institutions in Europe and Asia in the field of mathematical research. 

This workshop reflects CUNEF University’s activities related to mathematical research and the establishment of international partnerships that promote scientific progress.
