My interest is Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing in general,
and Numerical and Applied Linear Algebra in particular.
I am currently the
President of the
International Linear Algebra Society (ILAS) (2020-2026),
and a member of the Board of Trustees of
The Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM)
(2024-2028).
Previously, I was
Vice-President (at large) of the
Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) (2014-2015).
I am a member of the Editorial Boards of:
Advanced Studies:
Euro-Tbilisi Mathematical Journal (published by the Tiblisi Centre for Mathematical Sciences),
the
Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA) (Co-editor-in-Chief, 2005-2013)
the
Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory (published by the Romanian Academy).
Linear Algebra and its Applications,
Mathematics of Computation,
and
Numerical Linear Algebra with Applications.
Previously, I serve on the boards of
The Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra (1995-2023),
the
SeMA Journal, and the
SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Application
(2003-2020, Editor-in-Chief, 2015-2020).
