Summary
Alexander Litvinenko is a Group Leader in Uncertainty Quantification at RWTH Aachen with over a decade of experience developing low-rank tensor and hierarchical matrix methods for multi-parameter PDEs, Bayesian inverse problems, data assimilation, and optimal experimental design. His work bridges deep mathematical theory and high-performance computing, delivering scalable parallel algorithms to tame massive covariance matrices and accelerate stochastic Galerkin and Polynomial Chaos workflows. Previously at KAUST and the Max-Planck Institute, he applied these techniques to real-world challenges in aerodynamics and industrial collaborations with companies like Aramco, Boeing, and Baker Hughes. Comfortable writing proposals and building industry partnerships, he combines hands-on implementation with leadership in multidisciplinary projects. A PhD-trained mathematician from Leipzig, he uniquely blends multi-linear algebra expertise with practical experience in minimizing uncertainty across engineering domains.
