    Gaussian processes are a versatile tool in statistics and machine learning. They are suitable candidates to generate surrogate models that come with integrated uncertainty quantification of the reduced model. The quality of the model heavily depends on the choice of the hyperparameters and to train these on the given data many linear algebra challenges arise. In this talk we will briefly...

    Finding the unique stabilizing solution $X = X^H$ of a large-scale continuous-time algebraic Riccati equation (CARE) $0 = R(X) := A^HX + XA + C^HC - XBB^HX$ with a large, sparse n-x-n matrix $A$, an $n\times m$ matrix $B$ and a $p\times n$ matrix $C$ is of interest in a number of applications. It is assumed, that $B$ and $C^H$ have full column and row rank, respectively, with $m$, $p << n$....

    The solution of Sylvester-like matrix equations still constitutes a core task in systems and control theory, with their solution also being required in the extensive field of eigenvalue analysis. In addition to numerous iterative algorithms, Bartels and Stewart presented an algorithm for dense matrices in the 1970s. This algorithm has been improved over the last two decades by the introduction...

    Reduced rank extrapolation (RRE) is an acceleration method typically used to accelerate the iterative solution of nonlinear systems of equations using a fixed-point process. In this context, the iterates are vectors generated from a fixed-point mapping function. However, when considering the iterative solution of large-scale matrix equations, the iterates are low-rank matrices generated from a...

    We present a novel tensor empirical interpolation method operating within the tensor t-product framework. Compared to traditional empirical interpolation, our approach significantly enhances the reconstruction accuracy of tensor-valued datasets by using optimally placed sparse sensor measurements along the dimension of interest.

    In this talk, we introduce a mesh-free two-level hybrid Tucker tensor format for the approximation of multivariate functions. This new format combines the product Chebyshev interpolation with the ALS-based Tucker decomposition of the coefficients tensor. The benefits of this tensor approximation are two-fold. On the one hand, it allows to avoid the rank-structured approximation of functional...

    We consider an elastic solid, e.g. a ball, which sinks towards the ground in a container filled with a liquid. The ball bounces off the bottom.

    From a mathematical point of view, it is not clear what exactly happens. Assuming that the Navier-Stokes equations describe the situation, contact should not occur. The common hypothesis is that if the surface of the sphere is assumed to be...

    Sea ice is one of the important components in global circulation models used for weather forecasting and especially for climate prediction. Sea ice is modeled as a 2D layer between the atmosphere and the ocean. While sea ice covers only the polar regions of the Earth, the sea ice component usually takes on the role of a coupler between the ocean and the atmosphere and is responsible for all...

    Metastablility is a phenomenon which often inhibits the efficient simulation of dynamical systems, or the generation of samples from high-dimensional probability measures. In particular, metastability is frequently encountered in computer simulations of biological macromolecules using molecular dynamics.

    Stochastic dynamics with metastability are a recurring theme in many scientific disciplines, for instance, in simulations of macro-molecules, in climate systems, and in applications of uncertainty quantification. Metastability describes the existence of long-lived macro-states in a dynamical system's state space, such that transitions between these macro-states are rare events. It is thus...

    Parametrized nonlinear dynamical systems often arise upon discretizing parametrized partial differential equations (PDEs). Typically, the former tends to be of a large scale, i.e., the number of state variables could be significantly high (the state vector is denoted with x(t, p), p is the vector of parameters, the nonlinearity is f(x(t, p), p), while the matrices corresponding to the linear...
