Telmo Peixe

I am a Portuguese mathematician interested in Dynamical Systems and Evolutionary Game Theory. As an Assistant Professor in the Mathematics Department of ISEG - Lisbon School of Economics & Management, Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal, I teach graduate, master and PhD courses in Mathematics. I am an Integrated researcher at ISEG Research in Economics and Management, the newly established R&D Unit at ISEG, University of Lisboa. I am also member of the LxDS - Lisboa Dynamical Systems Group.
