Research/Teaching Statement Gerard Awanou 1 Trivariate Splines
Research/Teaching statement Gerard Awanou I would like to describe in this statement the research I have done and comment on future directions. My work has been on trivariate splines for scattered data in- terpolation and numerical solution of partial differential equations, particularly, the Navier-Stokes equations. Another line of my research is mathematical finance. I have been interested in risk minimization in regime switching and two factor stochastic volatility models. I will describe my recent success in the construction of a family of mixed elements for three dimensional elasticity, a problem which was open for over 40 years. 1 Trivariate splines Let us assume that Ω is a three dimensional domain with a triangulation 4, i.e. the union of nonoverlapping tetrahedra with the property that the intersection of any two tetrahedra is either empty, a common vertex, a common edge or a common face. A spline function of degree d and smoothness r over Ω is a r times differentiable func- tion which is a polynomial of degree d when restricted to each tetrahedron. Finite elements are examples of spline functions. Scattered data interpolation A typical problem in surface design is the following: Given a set of scattered points in IR3, which are assumed to be at the vertices of a triangulation 4, find a spline with appropriate smoothness which interpolates the given data at the vertices. The resolution of this problem is by means of the construction of locally supported spline functions with high smoothness. I have implemented C1 spline functions in [6] on a special triangulation. -

Bryan delayed, then released and gathered in Abel’s pass, stumbling across the goal line for the touchdown. The Sherman-booted extra point made it 14–14. Washington missed a field goal “by a scant three feet” as time expired and the Huskies Washington had one last chance to win, as the Huskies drove to the 25-yard line with less settled for a 14–14 tie with the heavily favored Midshipmen of the Naval Academy in the 1924 than five minutes to play on a long pass from Abel to Wilson. Washington’s field goal attempt Rose Bowl, played before 40,000 fans. by Leonard Zeil from 24 yards out had the distance but curved left. Navy took over on downs The Huskies, coached to a 10–1 record coming into the game by third-year coach Enoch at the 20, and advanced as far as midfield when the game ended. Bagshaw, had to fight back twice, falling behind 7–0 early and later trailing 14–7 to the well- drilled Middies of Annapolis. The Naval Academy (5–1–1) used a sophisticated passing attack, Attendance a style not seen before on the West Coast, to confuse the Husky defense in the first half. Navy 40,000 completed all 11 passes it attempted in the first half, and hit 14 in a row before the Huskies managed to stop one. Navy completed 16-of-20 for the day.
