Richard Samuelson

Lab Member Since:

January 1, 2024

is a doctoral student researching category theory, convex analysis, and high‑performance computing. He has made significant contributions to the CliqueTrees.jl package, implementing the ChordalLDLt multifrontal factorisation that underpins sparse symmetric positive‑definite linear solves. These improvements accelerate nullspace and global‑section computations in the CellularSheaves.jl library and enable more efficient compositional methods across the lab’s projects.
