Prof. Guillermo Chacón-Acosta

Guillermo Chacón-Acosta (Mexico City, 1981) is a Mexican researcher and physics professor who obtained the degree at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana. Since 2011 he is a Full Professor at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana. Furthermore, from 2013 he has been a member of the National Investigators System (SNI) with level I. He has specialized in statistical physics in equilibrium and non-equilibrium situations for various systems, particularly high-temperature relativistic gases. He has also worked applying these tools to quantum systems to study the phenomenology of quantum gravity and recently in social processes such as model economies and option price variation. He also works on the study of diffusion theory in confined systems, curved surfaces, and networks, with the mathematics behind pattern formation being of interest. From 2015-2017 he was a member of the Gravitation and Mathematical Physics Division of the Mexican Physical Society board. From 2015 to 2018, he was Head of the Postgraduate Program in Natural Sciences and Engineering at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana.
