FUNDIM, Fundamentals of Computing and Discrete Mathematics
FUNDIM Centre carries out basic research in discrete mathematics and computing. More specifically research topics cover
- automata theory
- models of computations
- cellular automata and complex systems
- tilings
- combinatorics on words
- discrete dynamical systems
Research is typically in cooperation with foreign partners.
