Assistant Professor - Politecnico di Torino
LORENZO ZINO
Assistant Professor - Politecnico di Torino
I majored in Applied Mathematics (Ingegneria Matematica) at Politecnico di Torino in 2014 and received my PhD degree (with honors) in Pure and Applied Mathematics from Università di Torino - Politecnico di Torino (joint doctorate program) in 2018. After research fellowships at Politecnico di Torino, New York University, and University of Groningen, since October 2022, I joined the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications of the Politecnico di Torino, Italy, where I am a Senior Assistant Professor (RTDb), since 2023. My research production includes more than 90 international scientific publications, including 50 papers in scientific journals. My research interests include but are not limited to the modeling, the analysis, and the control aspects of dynamical processes over network systems (epidemic spreading, opinion dynamics, diffusion of innovation, etc.), applied probability, network modeling and analysis, and game theory.

WORKSHOP @ CDC 2025
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Dec 9, 2025)
I will attend the workshop Socio-Inspired and Socially Aware Control for Complex Systems, which I co-organized with W. Mei, A. Rizzo, and K.H. Johansson, where I will give a talk on Adaptive gain control to solve th eequilibrium selection problem
CDC 2025
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Dec 9–12, 2025)
I will attend the IEEE CDC 2025​, where I will present our works on quantum computing for epidemic control (with. M. Boggio, D. Volpe, G. Orlandi, G. Turvani, and C. Novara) and control of behavioral-epidemic models (with F. Parino and A. Rizzo). My co-authors will present our works on economic MPC for epidemic control (with L. Calogero, M. Pagone, and A. Rizzo) and adaptive-gain control for evolutionary game theory (with R. Gavin, K. Paarporn, M. Ye, and M. Cao), the latter within an invited session that I co-organized with M. Ye, M. Cao, and N. E.
