From complex-step differentiation to a general reconstruction framework
Rafael Abreu, Chahana Nagesh
The complex-step method is traditionally derived from the Taylor expansion of an analytic function and is widely used as a numerical technique for derivative approximation. We pres…

On the Fréchet interaction density of certain wave equations
Rafael Abreu, Chahana Nagesh
We extend the adjoint method to complex-valued PDEs and introduce the \emph{Fréchet interaction density}, as the most fundamental interaction from which Fréchet sensitivity kernels…
