معرفی
Mattia Zanella is a Researcher at the Department of Mathematics, University of Pavia, within the 'Methods and Models for Applied Sciences' group. His work focuses on kinetic theory, computational methods, and their applications to epidemic dynamics, opinion formation, and socio-economic systems. He develops mathematical models to study emergent phenomena in complex systems, with particular emphasis on uncertainty quantification and control strategies.
Research interests include kinetic equations (Fokker-Planck, Boltzmann-type models), agent-based systems, and data-driven approaches for understanding collective behavior. His studies address topics such as epidemic spreading, wealth distribution, traffic flow, and social networks, often integrating stochastic processes and numerical analysis.
Key contributions involve analyzing consensus dynamics, optimizing control mechanisms for epidemic models, and modeling the impact of social heterogeneity on disease transmission. His work bridges theoretical developments with practical applications, such as biomedical image segmentation and policy evaluation in public health.
Recent publications emphasize the interplay between opinion dynamics and epidemic control, uncertainty quantification in kinetic equations, and the mathematical modeling of socio-economic systems. Zanella collaborates on interdisciplinary projects, applying advanced computational techniques to real-world problems in epidemiology, engineering, and urban studies.
