Dr Jitse Niesen

Profile

I studied at the University of Twente, Netherlands (undergrad) and the University of Cambridge, followed by postdocs at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh and La Troe University, Melbourne. I have been in Leeds since 2007.

Research interests

My research interests are mostly in numerical analysis (geometric integration, exponential integrators) and dynamical systems (dynamics on networks, snaking, Evans function).

Student education

My teaching is mainly in numerical analysis, programming, and financial mathematics. I am also involved in the MaGIC system and study abroad.
