SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IOE 899 Seminar: John Urschel\, MIT
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 13 as our guest\, John Urschel\, gives his talk titled \"Numerical Stability in Gaussian Elimination.\"\n\nAbstract: The solution of a linear system\, i.e.\, given a matrix A and vector b\, finding a vector x satisfying Ax = b\, is one of the oldest problems in mathematics. Gaussian elimination is one of the most fundamental and well-known techniques for solving linear systems\, by factoring a matrix into the product of a lower and upper triangular matrix. Surprisingly\, a number of questions regarding the numerical stability of this algorithm remains. In this talk\, we will study the history of this subject\, a story that spans over seventy-five years\, and discuss some recent progress.\n\nBio: John Urschel is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at MIT\, and a Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows. Previously\, he was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from MIT in 2021 under the supervision of Michel Goemans. His main research interests include matrix analysis\, numerical linear algebra\, and spectral graph theory. He recently received the SIAM DiPrima Prize for the most outstanding thesis in applied mathematics\, and the SIAM Early Career Prize in Linear Algebra.\n\nThis event is part of our 899 seminar series.
