معرفی
Timoteo Carletti is a Full Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Namur, Belgium, and a leading researcher at the Namur Institute for Complex Systems (naXys). He has been with the University of Namur since 2005, progressing from lecturer to professor in 2008 and Full Professor in 2011. Carletti co-founded the Namur Center for Complex Systems in 2010 and directed it until 2014. His academic journey includes postdoctoral research at Paris XI, IMPA in Rio de Janeiro, Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, and the University of Padova.
Carletti earned his Master's degree in Physics from the University of Florence in 1995 and completed his Doctorate in Mathematics there in 2000 with a thesis on "Stability of orbits and Arithmetics for some discrete dynamical systems." His research spans diverse fields including biology, celestial mechanics, chaos detection, complex networks, control of systems, dynamic systems, economics, particle accelerators, and social dynamics. With over 150 publications and an h-index of 26 (2,450 citations), his work demonstrates significant impact in the field of complex systems.
His research focuses on complex networks, synchronization phenomena, higher-order interactions, and pattern formation. Recent work explores synchronization in matrix-weighted networks, chimera states on directed hypergraphs, topological Dirac synchronization, and control strategies for desynchronizing Kuramoto oscillators. His publication record shows a clear evolution from traditional network analysis toward increasingly complex higher-order structures and topological approaches to understanding dynamical systems.
Carletti has led numerous significant research projects including EMOTIONS (Emergent MOTifs in IntercONnected Systems), Be-neXst (Belgian advanced studies on compleX systems), and UNDER-NET (underground fungal networks). He served as President of the Graduate School FNRS "Non-linear phenomena, Complex Systems and Statistical Mechanics" from 2011-2017 and has organized major international conferences including ECCS12 in Brussels.
As an educator, Carletti has supervised numerous PhD and Master's theses across mathematics, economics, biology, and computer science. His upcoming activities for 2025 include hosting researchers, delivering invited talks on global synchronization, and organizing the Perspectives in Nonlinear Dynamics conference and the International School and Conference on Network Science.
