DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/cam/19/">Sta
 bility of numerical methods on Riemannian manifolds</a>\nby Brynjulf Owren
  (NTNU Trondheim) as part of CAM seminar\n\nLecture held in MV:L14.\n\nAbs
 tract\nStability of numerical integrators play a crucial role in approxima
 ting the flow of differential equations. Issues related to convergence and
  step size limitations have been successfully resolved by studying the sta
 bility properties of numerical schemes. Stability also plays a role in the
  existence and uniqueness to the solution of the nonlinear algebraic equat
 ions that need to be solved in each time step for an implicit method.\nHow
 ever\, very little has up to now been known about stability properties of 
 numerical methods on manifolds\, such as Lie group integrators. An interes
 t in these questions has recently been sparked by the efforts in construct
 ing ODE based neural networks that are robust against adversarial attacks.
  In this talk we shall discuss a new framework for B-stability on Riemanni
 an manifolds. A method is B-stable if the numerical method exhibits a non-
 expansive behaviour in the Riemannian distance measure when applied to pro
 blems which have non-expansive solutions.\nWe shall in particular see how 
 the sectional curvature of the manifold plays a role\, and show some surpr
 ising results regarding the non-uniqueness of geodesic implicit integrator
 s for positively curved spaces.\n
