The current generation of iterative methods give a poor performance on modern hardware since communication and synchronization costs dominate over the cost of the floating point operations. We are working on communication avoiding and hiding in iterative Krylov methods and introduced so-called pipelined Krylov methods where the latency associated with dot-products is hidden behind other computations. It offers a much better performance in strong scaling experiments. We are currently also working on high-arithmetic intensity Krylov methods that are build on top of kernels that can be SIMD vectorized.

We have have introduced numerical continuation to track resonances in quantum mechanical systems. Numerical Continuation is frequently used in dynamical systems. The method can track transition betweenresonant and bound state in single channel problems, coupled channel problems with equal and unequal tresholds.
