Santiago Puyol

My undergraduate thesis in Physics is about the dynamics of hybrid classical-quantum systems through the Koopman formalism. The Mathematics one looks at the same parameter from its geometric side. Both are in research, with one summary for people who do not come from physics and another for people who do.

I have been programming since primary school and writing in LaTeX since my first year at university. Almost everything I have built starts the same way: I run into a problem I could solve or automate with a tool, so I make it. A timetable viewer, because the faculty's own was closed and hard to share. An open source replacement for Kahoot, with no cap on questions and none of the overwhelming options you do not want for something simple among friends. An assembly moderation tool, to make writing the minutes easier. They are all in personal projects, and some of them you can try.

The rest of my time went, and for now still goes, to student representation: I have presided over the Student Council of the University of Zaragoza and been secretary of both ANEM and the Faculty of Science delegation. Apparently I always ended up as secretary of something. I stay in post until the next elections are called, and then I step down.

Beyond all that I like board games and logic games such as Blood on the Clocktower, and I have given a talk on computational complexity using Professor Layton puzzles as the excuse. Both have had consequences for this page.
