I like numerical analysis, linear algebra, computational math!

Disclaimer: Everything I say is probably wrong.
Some sparse matrices are so pathological & break direct solvers, preconditioners, and iterative methods on GPUs. Here I explore these “nightmare matrices” and show how deflation and block methods can reshape the problem into one GPUs actually like to run.

Nightmare Matrices: When Sparse Solvers Fail on GPUs
I introduce a new family of symmetric-positive-definite sparse matrices (“Nightmare matrices”) \(A\) that defeats all known preconditioners, sparse direct solvers, and Krylov iterative methods for sol...

recent little side-project: taking this "generalized QR factorization" to establish the spectral theorem for symmetric matrices www.reidatcheson.com/qr/dense/sol...

no new results, just fun new ways of arriving at existing ones
An Interesting Inverse Inequality: Proof
Here I show some of my internal thinking behind recent work where I prove a theorem that I stated as conjecture in an earlier, related manuscript. This arose from a thought I had a while ago: can we a...

If you haven’t seen @anyaustin.bsky.social’s videos about video games on YouTube… you should. They’re cool. He goes into cool minutiæ like employment rates of various towns. This one is about power lines. He mentions a familiar twitter user that doesn’t seem to exist anymore
