Dr Sergey Dolgov

Research interests:

  • Numerical linear algebra and scientific computing
  • Approximation and reduction of multivariate functions and tensors
  • Probabilistic and quantum modelling

Sergey’s research is in numerical linear algebra and scientific computing, with the primary focus on fast numerical solution of problems in high dimensions. Examples include partial differential equations with many coordinates in statistical and quantum mechanics (such as the Fokker-Planck and Schroedinger equations), as well as uncertainty quantification and statistical inverse problems. The central approach is based on approximation of multivariate functions using the separation of variables, which turns into low rank matrix and tensor decompositions on discrete level. However, Sergey is also looking for synergies of the tensor decompositions and other techniques, such as Monte Carlo methods and parallel algorithms for linear algebra.
