Some algorithms based upon a projection process onto the Krylov subspace $K_m = \operatorname{Span}(r_0, Ar_0, \ldots, A^{m - 1}r_0)$ are developed, generalizing the ...

Luis Caffarelli has won the 2023 Abel prize, unofficially called the Nobel prize for mathematics, for his work on a class of equations that describe many real-world physical systems, from melting ice ...

Sometimes, it’s easy for a computer to predict the future. Simple phenomena, such as how sap flows down a tree trunk, are straightforward and can be captured in a few lines of code using what ...
