Iterative Methods and Preconditioners for Systems of Linear Equations

Martin J. Gander is a full professor in mathematics at the University of Geneva. He was previously a postdoctoral fellow at Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, and professor of Mathematics at McGill University. He has held visiting positions at Paris 13, University of Nice, RICAM, University of Amiens, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse, University Henri Poincare, and the CNRS. Professor Gander held the Polya Fellowship at Stanford, a TMR Fellowship from the Swiss National Science Foundation, and an FCAR strategic professorship from Quebec. Together with Felix Kwok, he won the SIAM 100-Dollar 100-Digit Challenge, and with Albert Ruehli the best paper award at the 19th IEEE EPEPS conference. He became a SIAM fellow in 2020 and was nominated the Jean-Morlet Chair of the CIRM for 2022. His main research interest is numerical analysis, specifically parallel iterative methods for space-time problems.

Gabriele Ciaramella is an assistant professor with tenure at the Politecnico di Milano (MOX Lab). He was a postdoctoral Fellow at University of Geneva and Junior Professor at the University of Konstanz. His main research interests are in numerical analysis, specifically parallel iterative methods, and in numerical optimization with applications to quantum systems.
