INTERESTS
I am interested in multi-body dynamics underlying emergent phenomena, such as biological phenomena and the emergence of intelligence, from the perspective of information physics.
What are the fundamental laws that govern multi-body interactions leading to such a wide variety of emergent behaviors?
Furthermore, is it possible to design novel functional materials by controlling these multi-body phenomena?
