In the past decade the physics of complex systems has become one of the most interdisciplinary subjects of contemporary science. In particular, this field has penetrated into various areas of natural and even social sciences for the modeling of complex dynamics, data analysis, prediction, and monitoring purposes. To explore of such systems, for monitoring and forecast their complex evolution, physicists employ effective tools from nonlinear dynamics and statistical physics. In this field the researches are focused on the study of the behavior of systems that consist of many individual components and whose non-linear evolution cannot be guessed from the behavior of its components.
Despite the considerable progress made on the study of complex systems by employing methodoligical tools from the physics, there is still wide spectrum of problems which need to be attacked from the viewpoint of physics of complex systems. Especially this concerns applications in the fundamental problems of the earth system physics, neuroscience, biology, medicine and financial and social systems.
Therefore this international conference aims at to isolate and discuss some of the less-explored and newly emerged issues in the physics of complex and non-linear systems as well as their future prospects with the focus on different challenging problems of natural and environmental sciences.
Scientific program will cover different aspects of complex systems and nonlinear dynamics with broad spectrum of interdisciplinary topics. In particular, the following topics will be covered by the invited and plenary lectures:
- Network science and its applications;
- Time-series analysis of extreme events and related phenomena;
- Statistical physics based analysis of the complex systems;
- Complex phenomena in nanoscale systems;
- Nonlinear evolution equations on discrete and branched systems;
- Modeling of atmospheric phenomena;
- Nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and its applications;
- Complex astrophysical phenomena;
- Neuroscience;
- Other applications of the physics of complex systems.
