I'm a member of the
UB-UPC Dynamical Systems Group.
This is a quite large group of researchers in Dynamical Systems based
in Barcelona, with a wide set of interests.

Activities:
-
Organizer of a Workshop on
Strange Nonchaotic Attractors, Barcelona, March 27-29, 2006.
-
Editor and maintainer of the
non linear science network (nls-net).
-
Editor and publisher of the
Mathematical Physics Electronic
Journal (MPEJ).
This is a refereed, completely electronic journal, on Mathematical
Physics. Anybody with access to the Internet can access and/or subscribe
to the full journal or just the abstracts for free.
-
Editor of
Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems - Series B. This is an
interdisciplinary journal focused on the interplay between
mathematical analysis and scientific applications. It is centered
around dynamics, covering a broad range of applied areas including
physical, chemical, engineering, financial, biomedical, and life
sciences.
-
In our research group we have developed a Beowulf cluster called
HIDRA.
I'm also working on several tasks related to this cluster,
mainly in the design of parallel numerical methods (including
software) for dynamical systems problems.
Past activities
Research interests:
-
Dynamical systems: Celestial mechanics, Hamiltonian mechanics, KAM theory,
normal forms, diffusion.
-
Numerical methods: Integration of ODE, computation of invariant objects
(invariant tori, invariant manifolds), computational KAM theory.
-
Applications: Dynamical astronomy, spacecraft dynamics, mission analysis.
-
Parallel computing: use of Beowulf clusters in dynamical systems problems.
Other topics of interest:
-
PDEs: Numerical methods (spectral and FEM), use of dynamical systems tools
to study dynamical PDEs (like the Poiseuille flow or water waves).
-
Applications of dynamical systems to any field of sciences: molecular dynamics,
atmospheric dynamics, etc.
