Jitse Niesen (2006)
I'm a post-doc in the Department of Mathematics of La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia.
Specializations
My specialization is numerical analysis, which is the simulation of phenomena like the weather or the flow of air around an aircraft on a computer.
More specifically:
- Numerical analysis, especially of ordinary differential equations; my main interests are: exponential integrators, Magnus integrators, global error, B-series
- Dynamical systems; main interests: bifurcation theory, especially the Evans function (a tool for assessing the stability of travelling waves), symmetries of partial differential equations
