“Computational mathematics may seem boring only
from a far distance. In fact, this discipline is an endless source of joy
and inspiration. What could be more fun than inverting a matrix? :) ”

Education and Early Career
Daria got her Specialist degree in Mathematics and System Programming in
2013. Then she defended her PhD degree in Mathematical modeling, numerical
methods, and software packages in 2017. Daria defended both degrees under the
supervision of Professor Ivan Oseledets. Daria’s research focuses on methods of
factorization and solution of the linear systems with the block low-rank matrices.
1In 2019 Daria got her first Postdoctoral position at the Courant Institute of
Mathematical Sciences at New York University under the supervision of Pro-
fessor Mike O’Neil and Professor Leslie Greengard. Her work there was mainly
devoted to the design and implementation of a fast direct solver for FMM-like
matrices.
In 2022 Daria got her second Postdoctoral position at King Abdullah Uni-
versity of Science and Technology under the supervision of Professor Matteo
Ravasi and Professor David Keyes. Daria’s work in KAUST focuses on imple-
menting high performance algorithms to rank-structured matrices.
Why KAUST?
KAUST provides endless opportunities for research, education, and collabora-
tion. For me, it’s a perfect place to live and work.
