Progress with the books, papers and MATLAB

I’m starting with the last chapter in Christensen and plan to have finished it on Nov. 5th. I still have some pages left in ch. 11 of Gröchenig as well as the whole ch. 12+13; I plan to have finished them by the mid of November. Then there’s the whole time of the day available for selected chapters of HGFei/Strohmer and—primarily—the GA4IP-stuff.

I also got myself into the MATLAB/Octave toolboxes and went through the diary (i.e. the MATLAB logfile) of HGFei and the examples of P. Søndergaard. (BTW, Søndergaard will be in Vienna at Nov. 8th for a talk at NuHAG.) Tomorrow I’ll visit the IT-staff at the institute to get a mathematics/MATLAB computing account. This term, I’ll visit HGFei’s lecture on Selected Topics in Modern Analysis, which takes place Monday and Thursday 10-11 a.m. Although this hour is “in the middle” of my working time at SOL4-IT, I’ll have to be there regularly, at any cost.
