Dedication
To Prof. J.M. Buldú, whose trust and belief in my abilities opened doors I could never have imagined.
To my dearest friends and family, for always trusting and believing in me much more than I do.
And to Prof. J.M. Marín, whose dedication and guidance illuminated the path of this thesis. The thesis felt lighter under the laughs we had in the way.
With sincere gratitude,
