معرفی
Dr. Ivan Kryven is an Associate Professor in Mathematical Modeling at the Mathematical Institute, Faculty of Science, Utrecht University. His research spans graph theory, probability, numerical methods for dynamical systems, partial differential equations, stochastic analysis, and randomized algorithms, with applications primarily in chemistry and materials science.
His expertise includes:
- Mathematical Modeling
- Stochastic Modeling
- Discrete Mathematics
- Graph Theory
- Differential Equations
- Statistical Physics
Dr. Kryven's research focuses on the mathematical foundations of complex systems, with particular interest in network science, random graphs, and their applications to polymer science and materials engineering. His work often bridges discrete and continuous mathematical objects, revealing fundamental connections across different domains. Much of his research has practical applications in chemistry and materials science, with recent efforts expanding into complex societal systems and epidemiology.
His scientific contributions demonstrate strong trends in percolation theory, random graph representations of physical processes, and computational methods for analyzing complex networks. His work connects theoretical mathematics with practical applications in materials science, epidemiology, and complex systems analysis.
His notable scientific contributions include publications in Nature Communications, Physical Review E, and Scientific Reports, with research spanning from polymer networks to epidemic modeling and complex systems analysis.
Dr. Kryven has supervised numerous students through their academic journey:
- PhD Students: Ruben Hendriks, Mike de Vries, Jochem Hoogedijk, Niek Mooij, Verena Schamboeck (now at Austrian Power Grid), Yuliia Orlova (now postdoc at University of Amsterdam)
