Numerical Analysis Group

Our research is mainly focused on numerical mathematics. We are interested in the numerical solution of time dependent ordinary and partial differential equations, numerical linear algebra, and numerical methods for image processing.

Scientists of the Numerical Analysis Group are involved in the Collaborative Research Center 1173 "Wave phenomena - analysis and numerics" at KIT. They are working on the research projects A2, A4, and A7 as well as B10. See here.
