Maria Correia

Maria Correia is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She teaches undergraduate mathematics courses including Calculus II and Linear Algebra, and her research explores complex systems in mathematical physics.

Her research focuses on:

• Chaotic behavior in billiard systems
• Ergodic properties of dynamical systems
• Nonlinear partial differential equations
• Symbolic approaches to dynamical systems
• Mathematical modeling of physical phenomena

Publications demonstrate applications of symbolic dynamics to physical systems and stability analysis of complex dynamical behaviors. Her investigations bridge theoretical mathematics and applied physics contexts.
