Felipe Gomez Lozada

I am a Ph.D. student in Computational Modeling and Simulation at the University of Pittsburgh under the supervision of Prof. Juan Jose Mendoza Arenas. My main interest lies in theoretical and computational research on emergent phenomena in many-body physics. Currently, my work consists of the solution of PDEs using tensor networks, focusing on its application to quantum turbulence. I hold a B.Sc. degree in physics from the National University of Colombia, during which I worked on phase-change simulations using the FEM and ground-state calculation of Bose-Fermi mixtures with the DMRG technique. I also have experience as an external consultant in cinematographic production using computer-aided design and CFD, along with tutoring university students. After my bachelor's degree, I took part in two research internships: at the University of Waterloo on a study of pyrochlore magnets and non-trivial topological magnon bands, and at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology with a project on emerging polaron physics in Bose-Fermi mixtures.
