Computational Mathematics

The group, which is internationally recognised, underpins computational modelling in every area of technology and science. Some areas of special focus include advanced methods for differential and integral equations, and algorithms for high dimensional problems.

Academic and research staff in the group make extensive use of high performance computing and advanced visualisation, in combination with modern analysis. They have a strong involvement in the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Mathematics and Statistics of Complex Systems (MASCOS), a research centre which aims to underscore the importance of mathematics and statistics across the range of Australia's scientific and technological development.
