Fundamentals of Computing and Discrete Mathematics

Complex Systems and Computing

Leader: Jarkko Kari

The group investigates unconventional methods of information processing inspired by nature. The research topics include mathematical and computational aspects of

  • cellular automata,
  • quantum computing and quantum information theory,
  • molecular computing, and
  • self-assembly.

The focus is on algorithmic aspects, including decidability issues. The group consists of two professors, two senior scientist, one postdoctoral reserarcher and three PhD students.
