My field is numerical analysis / scientific computing; I have a personal view of what this means. Specific interests include numerical linear algebra, numerical solution of PDE, numerical conformal mapping, approximation theory, and fluid mechanics. In recent years much of my work has been related to non-normal matrices and operators, that is, matrices and operators whose eigenvectors are not orthogonal, and applications.
