Demetris Hadjiloucas

Demetris Hadjiloucas is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the European University of Cyprus (EUC). He holds a B.Sc. in Honours Mathematics (1997) and a Ph.D. in Mathematics (2001) from UMIST, U.K., with a doctoral thesis on invariant graphs in dynamical systems. His career includes postdoctoral research at UMIST, teaching roles at the University of Crete, and leadership roles at EUC, including Deputy Dean of the School of Sciences and Program Coordinator for the B.Sc. in Mathematics.

Education:

• B.Sc. in Honours Mathematics, UMIST, U.K. (1997)
• Ph.D. in Mathematics, UMIST, U.K. (2001)

Research Interests: Focuses on dynamical systems, ergodic theory, operator theory, and matrix dynamics. His work explores hypercyclicity, invariant graphs, and stochastic processes, with applications in functional analysis and nonlinear dynamics.

Publications: His research spans over two decades, with contributions to hypercyclicity criteria, matrix dynamics, and ergodic properties. Notable themes include permutation equivalence classes, topological transitivity in operators, and non-homogeneous Markov chains.

Awards:

• First Place Prize in the New York Mathematics League (1991)
• Overseas Research Scholarship (1997-2000)
• UMIST Graduate Research Scholarship (1998-2000)

Advising & Leadership: Has coordinated academic programs, chaired selection committees, and advised on faculty hiring. His service includes roles in EUC’s Senate and departmental leadership. Research projects include studies on neural control of eye movements using dynamical systems analysis (BBSRC-funded).
