The draft requires either: evidence that the subject meets any of the specific criteria for academics; or multiple published secondary sources that: provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements; are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight; are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content. Please add references that meet these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

Anastasios (Tassos) Bountis is a Greek mathematician and professor emeritus in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Patras.^[1] His research focuses on nonlinear dynamics, dynamical systems, and complex systems. He served as Professor of Mathematics at the University of Patras from 1990 to 2016 and was director of the Center for Research and Application of Nonlinear Systems.^[2][3]

In 2014, he was elected a Corresponding Member of the Academy of Athens.^[4][5]

In 2015, he was elected a member of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts.^[6][7]

Bountis received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Rochester in 1978.^[8]

Following completion of his Ph.D., Bountis held academic positions in the United States, including at the California Institute of Technology and Clarkson University.^[9][10] He subsequently served as assistant professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Thessaloniki from 1985 to 1986.^[11]

He later joined the University of Patras, where he served as Professor of Mathematics from 1990 until his retirement in 2016, after which he was named professor emeritus.^[12] He also served as director of the Center for Research and Application of Nonlinear Systems.^[13]

Bountis has organized international conferences, summer schools, and doctoral schools on nonlinear dynamics and complex systems.^[14][15]

He has also served on the editorial boards of several international scientific journals.^[16][17]

Bountis' research has focused on nonlinear dynamics, dynamical systems, chaos theory, and complex systems.^[18] He has authored and edited several scientific books and published research on Hamiltonian systems, nonlinear lattices, and related topics in mathematical physics.^[19]
