Asymptotic Preserving Numerical Methods for Multiscale Problems Abstract. Many phenomena in nature exhibit multiscale behaviors, which can be rather different in character. These phenomena can be categorized into two groups. On the one hand, there are problems featuring localized singularities, … Read more

Slice-Matching for Measure Transport: Approximation and Iterative Schemes Abstract: Transporting and estimating probability measures are fundamental tasks in various generative modeling methods like normalizing flows. An equally crucial aspect is having a suitable metric to gauge model performance and guide algorithm … Read more

Shape-morphing modes for solving PDEs with conserved quantities Abstract. I introduce shape-morphing modes for efficient and scalable approximation of solutions to time-dependent PDEs. Numerical methods typically assume the solution of a PDE as the linear combination of static modes, such as … Read more
