Léo Vivion Since September 2025, I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Liège (Belgium) where I am part of the discrete mathematics team.

My scientific interests lie in dynamics, in a broad sense. I completed my PhD thesis in Partial Differential Equations and, since 2021-2022, I have developed an interest in the study of dynamical systems from a 'discrete mathematics' perspective. This has led me to develop a taste and expertise in Symbolic Dynamics and Combinatorics on Words.

• Combinatorics on Words. Billiards. Various notions of complexities. Balance. Numeration systems.
  
  
• PDE analysis. Kinetic equations, Vlasov-like equations, Landau damping. Mean field limit, semi-classical limit. Shrödinger-like equations, solitary waves, quantum dissipative systems.
