Peer-reviewed work & preprints

Peer-reviewed articles and an open preprint.

Methodological foundations

Numerical analysis and scientific computing foundations.

My earlier work on nonlinear dynamical systems developed the solver design, basis representations, stability analysis, and convergence reasoning that now inform my scientific machine-learning work.
