Applications of Statistical Physics within the realms of Magnetism and Network Science, with specific focus in the following areas:
- Stochastic dynamics of the magnetization promoted by thermal and quantum fluctuations
- Phase transitions in the presence of competing interactions (e.g., exchange and dipolar interactions)
- Criticality and robustness of complex networks
