Research Training Group in Numerical Mathematics & Scientific Computing (NASC)
Profs. Beatrice Riviere, Jesse Chan, and I were awarded an National Science Foundation grant for our
Research Training Group in Numerical Mathematics & Scientific Computing (NASC).
This RTG trains the next generation of scientists in NASC and its applications, preparing researchers in computational and applied mathematics for both industry and academic careers. It provides many exciting training and research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as postdocs. Please visit the

Research Interests
My group's research is concerned with the design and analysis
of mathematical optimization algorithms for
nonlinear, large-scale (often infinite dimensional) problems
and their applications to science and engineering
problems.
Specific research areas include
large-scale nonlinear optimization,
model order reduction,
optimal control of partial differential equations (PDEs),
optimization under uncertainty,
PDE constrained optimization,
iterative solution of KKT systems,
domain decomposition in optimization.
Applications come in form of parameter
identification, optimal control, or shape
optimization problems.
The snapshots above are samples from work
performed in my group.
