Geometric numerical integration for optimisation
In this thesis, we study geometric numerical integration for the optimisation of various classes of functionals. Numerical integration and the study of systems of differential equations have received increased attention within the optimisation community in the last decade, as a means for devising …

Adaptive Geometric Numerical Integration of Mechanical Systems
This thesis is about structure preserving numerical integration of initial value problems, i.e., so called geometric numerical integrators. In particular, we are interested in how time-step adaptivity can be achieved in conjunction with structure preserving properties without destroying the good …

Fibonacci Sets In Discrepancy Theory and Numerical Integration
… their quantity with respect to discrepancy and numerical integration. We give a Fourier analytic proof of the fact that symmetrized Fibonacci Set has asymptotically minimal L2 discrepancy. This approach also yields an exact formula for this quantity, allowing us to evaluate the constant in the …

The structure and average discrepancies of lattice rules for numerical integration
… In the case of non-periodic integrands there is numerical evidence that the average L₂ discrepancy for these rules is smaller than the expected value for Monte-Carlo rules when the dimension s is less than 18. For non-periodic integrands, a vertex-modified version of the number-theoretic rule has …
